St Edward the Martyr Church, Corfe Castle

Highlight • Religious Site

This church is named after Edward the Martyr, who was King of the English and was murdered on 18th March 978 by order of his stepmother, Queen Alfthryth. Edward was slain at the nearby Corfe Castle, the ruins of which are just a short walk from here. The church dates back to the 12th century, though it underwent major restoration in the mid 19th century.

Corfe Castle Town Hall

Highlight • Historical Site

Named after the dramatic castle ruins that sit on the high above the village, Corfe Castle is a delight to explore. Built strategically at a gap in the Purbeck Ridge, the castle dates back to the 10th century and is today owned by the National Trust.

The village is built from characteristic grey Purbeck limestone and boasts a wealth of places to eat and drink, as well as many accommodation options. The walking in the region is superb, with the heaths, hills and, of course, the excellent coast path.
