Cambridge Rd Poundbury, Dorchester

Image: © Nigel Mykura Taken: 1 Mar 2011

This small bit of road is actually part of Cambridge Rd, a long road in the Victoria Park area of Dorchester but the metal bollards give a physical barrier which prevents vehicular access to Poundbury. All the minor roads between the two areas are closed off like this giving the feeling that someone is being kept out, but it also prevents a new through route being formed. Brownsword Hall (the Poundbury Village hall) can be seen at the top of the street in Pummery Square.
