Lulworth Military Range, Military shooting range in Dorset, England
The Lulworth Military Range spans 2,830 hectares of land along the Jurassic Coast, featuring multiple zones for tank and artillery training exercises.
The British Army established this training facility in 1917, leading to significant changes in local land use, including the evacuation of Tyneham village in 1943.
The range maintains a complex balance between military requirements and environmental protection within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Public access to the range and its coastal paths depends on military training schedules, with red flags indicating active shooting periods.
The abandoned village of Tyneham remains frozen in time within the range boundaries, complete with its original school and church structures.
