Just laying out Barry Cuff's postcard column, and I couldn't place this Stur street... The A357 in Sturminster Newton used to look rather different, didn't it? 😧

The Sturminster Newton Heritage Trust is sad to acknowledge the death of Her Majesty The Queen Elizabeth II. Our thoughts are with the Royal Family.

As a mark of respect, both the Mill and the Museum will be closed on the day of the funeral, Monday 19th September.
