Hinton St Mary is a village and civil parish in Dorset, southern England. It is sited on a low Corallian limestone ridge beside the River Stour, one mile (1.5 kilometres) north of the market town Sturminster Newton. In 2001 the parish had 97 households and a population of 221.[1] In 2013 the estimated population of the parish was 260.[2] In 2021 the estimated population of the parish has decreased to 225.

The village includes a parish church, a traditional pub, a manor house, a village hall and a water mill. The church, dedicated to St Peter, has a 15th-century tower.[3] The manor house was once owned by the nuns of Shaftesbury Abbey,[3] and its grounds includes a noted avenue of beech trees.

The village has a community garden, the Millennium Garden, which was constructed in 1999 as an episode of the BBC series Charlies Garden Angels, with local people and businesses helping to create it.

Cutt Mill in 2006

Cutt Mill, a water mill on the River Stour to the northwest of the village, was burned down in 2003 by vandals. The building remains unused as the structure is now unsafe.
