More about this scene
Historians believe that the Stour was a major attraction to the Romans when the future Emperor Vespasian chose Wimborne as the site for his base camp for the conquest of south-west England in AD45. The camp covered about 40 acres, and was occupied for 20 years. Supplies came by sea to Poole Harbour and then by road from Hamworthy to Wimborne.
