Milton, Dorset

The former town Milton (or Middleton) in Dorset was cleared by the local landowner, Joseph Damer, in the 1770s. This was a result of a fashion amongst English landowners to improve the amenity of their homes by converting surrounding farmland into open parkland. Where buildings were deemed to spoil the view, they were removed, including villages and towns, as in the case of Milton. Damer's former residence, Milton Abbey is now occupied by Milton Abbey School.
