Place record MDO47977 - Iwerne Courtney or Shroton
Please read our guidance about the use of Dorset Historic Environment Record data.
Summary
An area east of Ranston has been suggested as the possible site of a medieval deer park, based on field name evidence. This is now considered unlikely, with the field names thought to refer to the later landscaping around the house (Wilson 1977).
