East Chelborough: parish church of St. James Hardly anyone knows it's there – indeed a local Dorset guidebook describes East Chelborough as 'a parish with no church'! This is, however, a most secluded and peaceful spot and well worth the walk down the bridleway which is the driveway of Lewcombe Manor – one feels all the better when one arrives, safe in the knowledge that so few people have ever visited the place!
