The Bulletin  

WIMBORNE MINSTER, WHERE,  

SIDE BY SIDE,  

IS THE OLD AND THE NEW  

KOKODA EPlC—m© 2s  

“The Bulletin,” Vol. 76—No. 3938  

Wednesday, August 3, 1955  

Price 9d.  

Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, N.S.W„ Australia, for transmission by Post as Newspaper  

AT the junction of the Rivers Wim  

and Stour in Dorset is Wimborne  

—an attractive market town of great  

antiquity which had its origin in Saxon  

times. Later it became an important  

Roman station, and relics of their  

occupation can still be seen.  

The chief feature of Wimborne is  

the Minster. It stands upon the site  

of nunnery founded about the year  

705 by sister of Ine, the great West  

Saxon king. The first religious house  

was destroyed by the marauding Danes  

and new church was founded by  

Edward the Confessor in A.D. 1043.  

The oldest part of the present church  

is the massive central Norman tower  

which at one time had spire, but this  

collapsed in 1600 and was replaced  

four years later by the existing battle-  

ments and pinnacles. It is supported  

by huge Norman arches; three bays of  

the nave are of Transitional Norman  

workmanship. Other impressive  

features of the interior are the choir  

and presbytery. The Minster, which  

underwent considerable restoration in  

1855-57, is built of the locally quarried  

rich brown sandstone and Purbeck  

marble.  

Here can be seen an interesting 15th-  

century altar-tomb, with remarkably  

well preserved effigies commemorating  

John Beaufort, Duke of Somerset and  

grandson of John of Gaunt. Near the  

tomb is slab of Purbeck marble with  

brass inscription which replaced an  

older memorial to King Ethelred, who  

was buried there in 872; he was the  

immediate predecessor of Alfred the  

Great. Particularly noteworthy is the  

east window containing 15th-century  

Flemish glass.  

The vestry is of 14th-century  

construction, and from it stairway  

leads to the library above in which are  

preserved medieval manuscripts and  

volume of Sir Walter Raleigh’s  

“History of the World.”  

No. 257: the Homeland Series by The House of Seppelt.
