Free English Heritage sites to visit in Dorset

Winterbourne Poor Lots Barrows Just a short walk from available parking, lies the huge burial mounds of Winterbourne Poor Lot. Straddling the A35, there are 44 mounds of various sizes to walk among here. The cemetery dates back to around 1500BC and is part of the much larger Dorset Bronze Age history. You can learn more about the barrows and how to identify the differences between them here. Less than a 10 minute drive from Winterbourne is another amazing Neolithic site to enjoy. On the hilltop overlooking Abbotsbury is the Kingston Russel Stone Circle. This next stop can be a little hard to find as it is not signposted, but it offers a pleasant short walk to the field where the stones lie. The circle is thought to be part of a larger monument from the late Neolithic period over 4000 years ago. You can learn more about their uses here.

Where star-starved city dwellers should go to see the night sky

Heading to the quieter regions of the Jurassic Coast would be one option Credit: Getty Has lockdown had you looking up? Or perhaps you feel it’s been ages since you’ve seen the night sky. In the age of social distancing, there can be few better ways to contemplate and take stock than a staycation with the stars. Your problem is light pollution, which is causing stars to vanish and threatens Britain s coastal wildlife. But things are changing. An All-Party Parliamentary Group for Dark Skies has been set up to help reduce unnecessary light by law (shielded, downward-pointing lighting fixtures using amber LED bulbs of 2,700K are the simple answer) while International Dark Sky Places are mushrooming.
