n Puddletown, on A35 Dorchester - Bournemouth road A grey-harled William and Mary house on the edge of the village of Puddletown. The present house was built by the 7th Earl in 1690, by 1837 it had passed to the Earls of Orford, but they spent little time here and between 1780 and 1829 it was leased to General Thomas Garth. In 1862 the estate was sold to John Brymer who added a new porch, billiard room and conservatory. When the present owners bought the property in 1979 it had been empty for two years. They restored and refurnished the house with fine period pieces. Outside there has been restoration of the gardens.
