Broadstone, Roman road
The route of the Roman road from Lake, by Hamworthy, to Badbury, and then on to Bath. Most of the Poole section is still negotiable; here is a bridleway. Housing in Jubilee Road to the left; Higher Blandford Road shortly ahead. The road also forms the boundary between East Dorset, left, and Poole, right.

Corfe Mullen: postbox № BH21 188, Phelipps Road
This little postbox serves a modern estate – indeed much of this large village IS modern – and is catching some late evening sunshine on this bright evening. Its final collection times are 4:30pm on weekdays and noon on Saturdays (one of only three boxes in Corfe to have a Saturday collection later than ten o'clock).

Alley in Corfe Mullen
At the end is an open grassy area. There used to be a kid's playground there,
until youths started playing there too, and the council had to remove the playground for children's safety.

Roofs of Corfe Mullen
Taken from Wayman Road, looking North-West. The houses in the distance are fairly new and closely packed. Corfe Mullen is an overgrown dormitory village, but not a bad place to live.

Broadstone, Roman road
From Lake, by Hamworthy, to Badbury, and then on to Bath. Part of the ager embankment can be seen in places, but at this time of year the route is overgrown. Much of the route in Poole is now a bridleway.

Roman Road in Broadstone
To the left is Corfe Hills school playing field, to the right dense housing in Corfe Mullen. Just to the right is the aggar of the Roman Road. This is near the end of our 7 mile walk, and my feet are killing me.
