Poole: postbox № BH15 23, Wimborne Road
This Victorian postbox stands outside a terrace of shops which curves around the corner of Wimborne and Jolliffe Roads, known as Tatnam Crescent, whose frontages are rather cluttered with parked cars just now. There was a post office here, named Heckford Park, until the 1970s.
The postbox receives its final daily collections at 5:30pm on weekdays and at noon on Saturdays.

Defending Dorset in 1940: the Maiden Newton - Poole Harbour Stop Line (95)

Anti-tank Blocks: DoB ID: e32301
Poole - St Mary's RC Church - Cubes. These anti-tank blocks in the grounds of the church are a continuation of the line of obstructions in the Tatnam Farm Allotments next door. They are the survivors of a continuous line that once extended from Poole Park to Creekmoor. In front of them is a deep drain that may well have been part of an anti-tank ditch.

The road is Garland Road, but Tatnam Crescent is the curved terrace of shops and flats. The cooperative food store in the background was formerly the Tatnam Hotel public house.

Defending Dorset in 1940: the Maiden Newton - Poole Harbour Stop Line (97)
-
Anti-tank Block: DoB ID: e24910
Poole - Sandbourne Road - Cube. The sole survivor in an alley off Sandbourne Road of a continuous line of similar concrete anti-tank blocks along this street that once extended from Poole Park to Creekmoor.
This is the last photo in the series recording mostly pillboxes and anti-tank cubes on the Stop-Line covering a distance of some 25 to 30 miles, and inevitably ending here in Poole. The Maiden Newton to Poole Harbour Stop Line was but a small part of a colossal anti-invasion undertaking that during 1940-41 embraced the entire country from Lands End to John O'Groats, lines of defence that thankfully never saw a shot fired in anger.
