Branksome Park is a suburb of Poole in Dorset, which adjoins Branksome, Dorset.[1] The area covers approximately 360 acres (1.5 km2), mostly occupied by housing, and includes Branksome Chine which leads to the award-winning blue-flagged beaches of Poole.
Branksome Park is one of Poole's most affluent areas. It is on the border of Poole, with Bournemouth being on the other side of The Avenue. It is less than 2 miles (3 km) from the shopping areas of Westbourne and The Square in the centre of Bournemouth.
Local facilities include a sports area with tennis courts and a bowling green. Branksome Park also has a small public library and is home to the All Saints Church constructed in 1877, and a school for disabled children which is located on the outskirts of the area.
