Jordan Hill Roman Temple is a 4th Century AD temple which was most likely was built on the site of a pre Roman pagan site.
Only the foundations of the temple remain the be seen but in the past excavations have uncovered many artefacts from Roman times along with large hoards of coins some of which can be seen in The County Museum in Dorchester.
It’s well worth a visit with beautiful views across Bowleaze Cove and pleasant footpaths nearby to explore.
You’ll find an interesting detailed description of Jordan Hill Temple on the Dorset Ancestors Website.
