IMAGES TAKEN NEAR TO
Jubilee Hill, WIMBORNE, BH21 8LY

The bridleway is an extension of New Road http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1449273 Stay with it for about two or three kilometres and you will arrive at Redman's Hill and a dismantled railway that used to run from Salisbury to Poole.

On the bridleway/private road from Whitmore to Wedge Hill and Horton Heath.

These may be former local authority houses from the inter-war years. New Road is shown as a bridleway here. Burgess Field is seen joining New Road at the left just beyond the white van.

Off Jubilee Hill, hidden under trees in an apparently private garden; an obelisk with steps, shown on OS Explorer as "Mon", and probably commemorating Queen Victoria's Golden Jubilee, though the inscription is not visible from the road or neighbouring footpath. "We are now back to the top of Jubilee Hill so called because a monument was erected there in memory of Queen Victoria's golden jubilee and to make the occasion memorable, two babies called Ewant Tubbs son of Lewis and Emily Tubbs and Lilian Victoria Bacon daughter of Mrs. George Bacon, later Mrs. Henry Tubbs were christened on the monument. When the huge stones arrived at Verwood Station they were loaded on to farmers wagons causing most of the wheels to collapse. It is said the stone masons were never fully paid as the cost was more than the money collected, but to remove them would cost more than their worth. In the 1950s vandals pushed the obelisk on top over, and has never been replaced although the huge stones are still there. (The Stones were replaced in 1999 for the millennium)." For more of such delightful reminiscences, see http://verwood.org/history/woodlands_stories.htm

Notice board, postbox and a K6 type telephone box make up the communications in the village. The footpath sign is out of grid square.
