More about this scene
This is the main road southwards, at the junction with Church Street (right). We are looking from North Street into Larmer Street. The large Methodist church dates from 1797, and was greatly expanded in 1831. The brickwork in the nearby cottages is an attractive mix of the early, fancy and rustic styles.

A Selection of Memories from Fontmell Magna
For many years now, we've been inviting visitors to our website to add their own memories to share their experiences of life as it was, prompted by the photographs in our archive. Here are some from Fontmell Magna
Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
My great aunt Emilly Still lived in the bungalow in the background and we as children spent many happy summer holidays in Fontmell Magna. She and Tom (who I never knew) are buried in the church graveyard.
I remember travelling from our home in Kent to Fontmell in the winter of 1963 during the worst snow storms in living memory to help my mother's aunt.
If anyone reads this I would love to find out more about Tom and Emily. I have visited Fontmell in recent years to put flowers on the grave.
