Wimborne Model Town, Miniature park in Wimborne Minster, England.
The concrete model settlement contains 120 buildings constructed at 1/10 scale, including 108 shop fronts and a 5-meter high church reproduction.
Founded in 1952, the model town moved to its current location on King Street when volunteers formed a charity to restore the attraction in the 1980s.
The miniature shop windows display merchandise typical of post-war England, representing the local commerce and daily life of Wimborne in the 1950s.
The site opens daily from April to November, with adult tickets at £12.00, and includes facilities such as a tea room, gift shop, and wheelchair access.
The model features a railway system based on Thomas the Tank Engine, which was officially inaugurated by author Christopher Awdry.
