    Sherborne Facts – Did you know…

    1. Royal Sherborne
      Once the capital of the Kingdom of Wessex, Sherborne had an abbey, founded in 705 CE it was the burial place of King Alfred the Great’s elder brothers, King Ethelbert and King Ethelbald.
    2. All’s Fair
      Sherborne Castle Country Fair draws big crowds, with music, sideshows, street food and fun, all with a local flavour.
    3. Tale of Two Castles
      There were two castles, although one is now only partially standing. The first was captured during The Anarchy in the 1140’s as it was viewed as “the master-key of the whole kingdom”. In 1645 it was besieged during the Civil War and eventually captured and mostly destroyed.
    4. Castle 2.0
      The second castle built by Sir Walter Raleigh in 1594, features gardens created by Capability Brown. More of a grand house than an actual castle, Raleigh was nothing if not modest so it would be only fitting that he should live in a ‘castle’. Today it’s open to visitors.
    5. Well Schooled
      It’s home to one of England’s most prestigious schools. Dating back to 1550 Sherborne School has produced a number of notable actors such as Hugh Bonneville, Jeremy Irons, and Jon Pertwee. Other famous pupils include Chris Martin, Alan Turing and John le Carre.
    6. Girl Power
      Sherborne School for Girls also has notable alumni; Sophie Kinsella, Baroness Kate Rock, Margaret Dix, and Princess Elizabeth of Toro.

    About

    With two castles, including a home built by Sir Walter Raleigh and gardens by Capability Brown, Sherborne certainly has fine pedigree. It was once the capitol of the Kingdom of Wessex and has been the site of sieges, sackings, festivals and even the tombs of two kings.

    A medieval market town, today it’s a picturesque location packed with independent shops, great cafes, characterful pubs and is well-kept for locals and visitors to enjoy. There are good amenities, country walks, and good transport links, making it a popular location with anyone moving to Sherborne. If it was good enough for Sir Walter…

    Leisure

    There’s a leisure centre with a swimming pool and gym, offering both fitness and swimming classes. The town also boasts a number of sports pitches and a golf club. Three art galleries and a number of antique and furniture shops are lovely places to browse, while dog-walkers, joggers and cyclists can enjoy Quarr Local Nature Reserve.
