Kingston is a small village located in the heart of the Dorset countryside, known for its picturesque rural setting and charming historic homes. Visitors to Kingston can enjoy a variety of outdoor activities, such as hiking, cycling, and horseback riding, with several scenic trails passing through the village and the surrounding countryside. One of the most popular local attractions is the South West Coast Path, which offers stunning views of the Jurassic Coast and passes through the village on its way to other nearby coastal towns and landmarks. A circular walk from the village can take in views of Corfe Castle, Poole Harbour, The Isle of Wight and along The Jurassic Coast to Portland.
For those interested in history and culture, Kingston has several interesting attractions to explore. One of the most notable is the St. James’ Church, which dates back to the 13th century and features beautiful stained-glass windows and intricate stonework. The Scott Arms is a historic coaching Inn with unrivalled views down to Corfe Castle and Poole Harbour beyond. The pub is particularly well known for its Sunday lunches and outdoor barbecue offering authentic Jamaican food.
Kingston has an active village community made up of both full and part-time residents. The properties are most visibly traditional stone cottages, coupled with spectacular, large country houses tucked away down discrete lanes.
Kingston’s early history remains somewhat unclear. However, the Domesday Book of 1086 indicates that even at the time of the Norman Conquest, the village was a significant population centre, ranking among the largest 20% of settlements in the country. Notably, it records a church in the village—an uncommon feature, as the survey primarily focused on land ownership—suggesting Kingston’s early importance.
Looking further back, Purbeck was the site of a major historical event in 978 when Edward, King of England, was assassinated at Corfe Castle. Additionally, excavations in the area have uncovered the remains of a large Roman villa, indicating continuous human activity in the region, possibly dating back to the first inhabitants of Britain.
