This Week in Beaminster

This week in Beaminster, the community has experienced a mix of surprise and quiet contemplation. A rather unusual incident grabbed local attention with a thatch fire near town, reportedly sparked by sunlight reflecting off a mirror – a stark reminder of how everyday objects can have unexpected consequences. Meanwhile, at Parnham House, the proposed tree works at the Staff Accommodation, including the felling of a London Plane and a Monterey Cypress, are currently out for consultation, prompting discussion and consideration among residents about the future of the estate's landscape.
