Welcome to the website for Halstock and Corscombe - a resource you may consult and also contribute to.
As two villages close in terms of geography and culture, many events occur that are supported by both. For this reason, it seems sensible to have a combined website that enables us to share resources.

As of December 2011, we are counting how many visitors the site receives. You may be interested to know that you are visitor number 2305

The site is currently under development, so changes will occur on a regular basis. You can send a message to the webmaster giving your ideas for how the site should develop. Why not register so that you can add items to the calendar and news pages.
