More about this scene

The buildings here have not changed much, although the garage on the right is no longer there. There is a Maserati car dealership at the end of the High Street. The road system has changed: today there is a one-way system where cars travel down the High Street towards Beaulieu, Southampton, Brockenhurst and Christchurch. In the summer, traffic is nose to tail because of the traffic lights.
