Fiddleford

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Fiddleford is a small Hamlet situated between Sturminster Newton and Okeford Fitzpane in North Dorset, UK.

Fiddleford is home to around 25 houses, the Fiddleford Inn and a large successful mushroom farm. In the hamlet there is also the beautiful mill and weir and the Fiddleford Manor, one of the oldest buildings in Dorset.

Fiddleford is also home to the notorious Fiddlefest. A right holler of a hoe down.

One resident of the hamlet had this to say: "Fiddleford was probably the dullest place ever. Was. Now we celebrate the Fiddlefest each year, and our lives have all changed!" - Mr Foldaway

Fiddleford is also home to a rare species of ferret the Puna Ferret.

Fiddleford is the home of the great Cornelius Q, songwriter, poet, pimp. He was born and raised in the small village and after moving to the midlands to attain fame and glory he moved back in to his family home, where he says " I can find solitude here, it's great to get away from all the stress of fighting for turf, and fighting for air."
