Corfe Mullen

St Hubert's	Corfe Mullen is a parish to the north-west of Poole. Although close to the suburbs of Poole it retains it's village character. Called 'Corf' in the Doomsday book of 1086 by 1176 it was being refered to as 'Corf Molyn' going through several variations to the present day. Corf is from the Old English for a cutting or pass probably referring to it's situation between two hills. Mullen is derived from the Old French for mill, refering to the old mill on the river Stour which at the time of Doomsday was valued at 20 shillings, a considerable amount at the time. From the 14th to 16th centuries it was often called Corf Hubert from a medieval landowner of that name.
