Avenue of Beeches

The road from Blandford to Wimborne (Blandford Road) is bordered for over two miles by beech trees - 365 apparently on each side (although we've not counted them!).  It apparently dates back to 1838 and is reported to be the longest avenue in Europe.  Some trees have succumbed to the ravages of time but it's an impressive sight, and to safeguard the future, some younger trees have been planted.
