St Nicholas Winterbourne Clenston Dorset.

This is an exceptionally attractive Victorian estate church that sits by itself away from the hamlet that it serves. It was rebuilt in 1840 by Lewis Vulliamy, who also designed the Union Workhouse at Sturminster Newton (1838), in banded flint and stone. Inside is relatively simple although the diminutive chancel has a painted ceiling and altar rails on three sides.
