Beaminster
Beaminster is a town as well as civil parish in Dorset, England, situated in the Dorset Council management location roughly 15 miles (24 kilometres) northwest of the county town Dorchester. It is sited in a bowl-shaped valley near the resource of the small River Brit. The 2013 mid-year price quote of the population of Beaminster church is 3,100. In its background Beaminster has actually been a centre of manufacture of bed linen as well as woollens, the raw materials for which were generated in the surrounding countryside. The community experienced three major fires in the 17th and 18th centuries; the first of these, during the English Civil War, almost ruined the textile of the community. Beaminster parish church is significant for its design, specifically its tower.
