Trackbed of the Somerset and Dorset Railway
This is the line of the old now dismantled track of the S&D Railway, looking north into Somerset in the direction of Henstridge whose houses can just be seen on the far left. The photo was taken from the Landshire Lane Bridge.

Old Railway Bridge
The track on this line which used to run from Templecombe to Sturminster Newton has long been dismantled but the bridge remains carrying Landshire lane over the former track bed. The lane gets its name from the fact that Dorset is on one side of the bridge and Somerset on the other

Bridge over the former S & D Railway Line
Arguably Britain's best loved railway, the former Somerset & Dorset Railway's mainline route ran from Bath through the Mendips, and on through Dorset, where it connected at Broadstone with the L&SWR route to Bournemouth. The course of the old line passes under this road bridge between Henstridge and Stalbridge.

County Boundary Post near Stalbridge
On the A357 at the junction with Landshire Lane stands this boundary post. Cast-iron, V-shaped at the base, bevelled top dated 1909; DORSET vertically to the left, and SOMERSET vertically to the right. One of a number probably erected by Somerset. Note also the well-maintained SCC finger post.
