The Blue Pool, Furzebrook, Dorset

The Blue Pool at Furzebrook constantly varies in colour. Very fine clay in suspension in the water diffracting light in different ways producing a spectrum of colour sometimes green sometimes turquoise.

Set in a deep clay bowl steps lead down to the waters edge or up to views of the Purbeck Hills, The Pool is surrounded by 25 acres of heath woodland and gorse interlaced with sandy paths that seem to take you to another world.
