LOCAL HISTORY

The White Hart Hotel forms the centrepiece of the picturesque winding High Street of Dorchester-on-Thames, a village dating back to the 11th century. It is surrounded by attractive buildings dating back to the Middle Ages.

Dorchester-on-Thames has been the site of virtually continuous human occupation for the last 6000 years. Prehistoric man (Bronze Age and Iron Age), Romans, Saxons and Normans, have all left traces of their dwellings and culture.

The Dorchester museum has an interesting display containing a selection of these artefacts, and many illustrations of Dorchester’s development throughout the ages. It also acts as the repository for archive material relating to the village’s history.
