A first visit as Dorsetcamera to this north Dorset town

Harwood Cottages in Newbury at the eastern end of the High Street.

The Natwest Bank on the corner of Station Road.

Looking west down the High Street.

Lloyds Bank.

The stonework above the door of Lloyds bank shows that it was originally a Wilts and Dorset Bank branch.

Gillingham Methodist Church.

The western end of the High Street.

The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin.

Looking east along the High Street from near the Square.

Just off the square is the old home of North Dorset Rugby club. They must have left these premises more than ten years ago.
