Abstract: |
This area lies between Frome and Warminster in the north, the Dorset Downs and Cranborne Chase in the south and the West Wiltshire Downs to the east. Less than 2% of the Character Area is urban and approximately 9% is woodland. Around 36% of the Character Area falls within the Cranborne Chase and West Wiltshire Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), and just over 2% of the Character Area lies within an Environmentally Sensitive Area (ESA). It includes the Greensand Hills of the Somerset Fringes and the Vale of Wardour, North Dorset Limestone Ridges, Blackmoor Vale, scarp foothills which flank the southern edge and the Rolling Clay Vale of Wardour between Shaftesbury and Compton Chamberlayne. Farmsteads Mapping has been undertaken within the Wiltshire part of the Character Area. |
