More about this scene

Cranborne Church, at the heart of the ancient hunting Chase, is one of the largest churches in Dorset. Cranborne and the villages round about were the residences of many local poachers until very recent times. Notice the advertisements for Mazawattee Tea and Spratt's Patent Dog Cakes on the building in front of the church.

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

I lived in Cranborne for two years from November 1963. My father owned the shops at the far end of the terrace in this picture and the building immediately facing, although it was derelict at that time. My sister and I were enrolled in the local secondary school that had opened two months earlier.
