Beaminster Down is common land on the Dorset Downs and overlooks the steep scarp slope above the town of Beaminster, which is about a mile and a half to the southwest. The hill is crossed by 2 long distance trails, 2 minor roads and several other tracks.
There is evidence of prehistoric settlement on in the form of tumuli to the northeast. Grenade practice took place in the sandbagged, zig-zag trenches on Beaminster Down during the Second World War.
