Summary

[edit]
Description

A walk around a rainy Sherborne in Dorset.

This was the Sunday that had heavy rain at the end of April 2012.

A few days after my visit The Queen and the Duke of Edinburgh visited the town as part of the Queen's Diamond Jubilee visits to towns and cities around the country.

Sherborne was the nearest town to our holiday cottage in Dorset.

Sherborne is an abbey town.

Oakwork dating from the 16th century on Long Street in Sherborne (with bronze plaque).

The oakwork is part of the ground floor of a house that stood on this site.

The house was overlaid with plaster, but was laid bare when it was demolished in 1926.

Is next to HSBC.

Grade II listed.
