Town Hall & Corn Exchange.

Town Hall & Corn Exchange.
BLANDFORD FORUM, commonly Blandford, is a market town in Dorset, sited by the River Stour. Blandford is notable for its Georgian architecture, the result of rebuilding after the majority of the town was destroyed by a fire in 1731. The rebuilding work was assisted by an Act of Parliament and a donation by King George II, and the rebuilt town centre—to designs by local architects John and William Bastard—has survived to the present day largely intact
