Beaminster Forum and Redhone Hundred was a hundred in the northwest of the county of Dorset, England. The list of parishes below is taken from A Vision of Britain through Time which separates Beaminster Forum & Redhone Hundred from Beaminster Hundred as does the map described below. Wikipedia lists both hundreds under Beaminster Forum & Redhone Hundred. A Vision of Britain through Time includes the following note:
A map of "the ancient county of Dorset in 1834, showing the Liberties, Hundreds and Boroughs" is to be found in Wikimedia. Unfortunately the print is too small to make it worthwhile reproducing the map here. Many of the hundreds had detached parts. [edit] Parishes
Hundreds were replaced by Registration Districts or Poor Law Unions between 1837 and 1850, and then by Rural and Urban Districts and Municipal Boroughs in 1894. |
