Shillingstone is a historic village set within the Blackmore Vale and is recorded in the Domesday Book of 1086 as being held under the lordship of Ascelin. Its name is believed to derive from “Eschelling’s” or “Ascelin’s town,” Historically, the village was also known as Shilling Okeford, reflecting its association with the wider Okeford area.


The village once boasted the tallest maypole in Dorset, standing approximately 86 feet high. Shillingstone also was well known for its production of moss, which was transported daily to London’s Covent Garden With the arrival of the railways in 1863 the Station became an important link to Bath and Bournemouth, Today, the former railway route forms part of the North Dorset Trailway.
