Self storage in Sturminster Newton
Sturminster Newton sits on the River Stour in the heart of the Blackmore Vale, a Dorset market town with a thousand years of milling behind it — its handsome watermill still stands beside the medieval six-arch bridge. Thomas Hardy called his years here among the happiest of his life, and it remains a close-knit town where storage space is rarely easy to come by.
