Burton, fingerpost

Image: © Mike Faherty Taken: 21 Mar 2009

Almost redundant, & very neglected; at the junction of Salisbury Road & Preston Lane. Two arms are missing, and the one remaining has a plastic label for a care home stuck over what was probably Bockhampton or Waterditch. Note that Burton is now in Dorset; this post pre-dates local governement reorganisation in 1974; Dorset Highways have chosen not to paint HAMPSHIRE black.
