Great news! Easter Sunday's Litton Cheney Duck Race raised £750 to be sent on its way to children's hospice, Julia's House. A fantastic effort, and thank you to all who participated but especially to Sam and Ralph Daubeney, and friend Kelly who knitted the woollen chicks, and Liz and Andy at the White Horse who supplied and "sold" the ducks in the lead up to the race.
A spring-line settlement along the northern margin of the Bride Valley, at the foot of the chalk scarp, about 145m (500ft) below the A35 main trunk road in south west Dorset, England. The village lies within an area of outstanding natural beauty some 14.5km (9 miles) west of Dorchester, 10km (six miles) east of Bridport and 5km (3 miles) from the sea at West Bexington. At the 2011 census the village comprised 195 dwellings housing a population of 359. At the 2021 census the population was 355.
