Winterborne Farringdon (or Winterbourne Farringdon) is a deserted village in Dorset, England, 1.5 miles south of Dorchester. Its lands are now incorporated into the adjacent settlements of Winterborne Came and Winterborne Herringston. There are substantial ground traces, and a remaining wall of St German's Church.
Although there is no civil parish, the name is used for Winterborne Farringdon Parish Council (Group) which includes the civil parishes of Bincombe, Whitcombe, Winterborne Came, Winterborne Herringston and Winterborne Monkton.[1]
