"Memorials of Old Dorset" by Rev. Thomas Perkins and Herbert Pentin is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book explores the rich history and cultural heritage of Dorset, showcasing its natural beauty and historic significance. It serves to commemorate the county's unique contributions to English history through detailed discussions of its geological features, prehistoric burial sites, and the impacts of Roman and medieval occupations. The opening of the book sets the stage for a comprehensive examination of Dorset's historical landscape. The initial pages address the editorial contributions of the late Rev.

Through a narrative that intertwines geography, archaeology, and local folklore, it reveals insights into the early inhabitants of the region, the influence of the Romans, and the evolution of its churches and historic sites.
