The Sqaure and Compass Stone Carving Festival 27th July

Posted by pilchid 6 May 2009

The perfect pub looking down towards the sea - two weeks of hand-on stone sculpting among other things. Food/craft stalls, amazing beer/brewed on the premises cider and great pasties!!

To top it all off - great bands playing both in the day and the evenings. Would recommend anyone to go along and have a great time!

Worth Matravers - In between Corfe Castle and Swanage. You can take Priests way from swanage for a great cliff top walk!! - www./squareandcompasspub.co.uk/
