More about this scene
Stoborough straddles the high road between Wareham and Corfe on the northern edge of the Isle of Purbeck. An archaeological excavation nearby revealed the remains of an early chieftain; he was buried in a hollowed-out oak tree, his drinking cup within easy reach ready for the afterlife.

During this period my mum-in-law, Rosa Crumpler, lived in Stoborough, attended the local school and her father, James George Crumpler, owned the garage. Her claim to fame is that she regularly filled the tank of "Lawrence of Arabia's" motor cycle (on display at Beaulieu).
