Broadstone is a town and suburb of Poole in Dorset, England. It’s positioned around 3 miles (4.8 kilometres) from Hamworthy railway station and 7 miles (11 km) from Bournemouth International Airport. Since 1840, it has developed from a little farm to a suburb. In 1840, ‘Broadstone Farm’ was established, and a railway line bypassed it in 1847. Its first church was built in 1853, which later became the Scout hall. The initial railway station was built in 1872 and named ‘New Poole Junction’ and, after many name revisions, became “Broadstone” in 1890. Broadstone First School was historically a Dame school, established in 1871. At the turn of the century, lavender oil began being produced in the area. This came to a stop in 1935 when the factory was destroyed in a fire, but a lot of lavender can still be discovered within the area. Much expansion of the town has since been undertaken, especially with the construction of the Pine Springs housing estate and the building of additional schools to service the growth in population. Based on the 2011 Census, the town boasts a resident population of 10,303, which has risen slightly from the 10,000 residents measured in the 2001 Census. Centred around the main road (the B3074), ‘The Broadway’ is a busy hub of shops, churches, schools and housing. The shops include both local and national chain retailers, along with cafes and restaurants. Broadstone is famous for its large recreation fields and heathland park, along with an annual Christmas parade and lights. The 24 acres of Broadstone Heath are some of the original heathland which covered the Poole Basin.
