Stour Row is a village in north Dorset, England, situated beside Duncliffe Hill three miles (five kilometres) southwest of Shaftesbury. It lies within the parish of the neighbouring village of Stour Provost.[1] Stour Row has approximately 150 houses and 300 residents. It has a village hall, which is used to run regular social events. Today it has few other amenities, but it had a petrol station, pub and shop prior to the early 1980s. It has a church, All Saints, which was built in 1867 but which has now closed due to falling congregation numbers.[1] The last service was held in the church on 15 October 2015. Stour Row lies within the SP7 postcode area on the edge of the Blackmore Vale.
