A Georgian letterbox with a benchmark
This Georgian letterbox stands at the junction with the Bath Road and Purlpit. The Allen-made box has been a feature at this point for some time, with a box of some sort being here since late Victorian times. In addition, there is a benchmark below it - but that is a mere post-war mark. See Image] for a wider view and https://www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm152993 for the entry in the Benchmark Database.

A Particular church
The village of Atworth housed a small but hardy (Particular) Baptist movement for a few centuries. Eventually, they were permitted and able to build their own church here at the junction with the Purlpit road. Although the date is set as 1860, the doors were practically opened in 1864. The congregation held services until the late 1970s; it was turned over as a private residence in 1979.
Aside from the parish noticeboard, there is an old letterbox at the far end of the wall. See Image

Welcome to Atworth, especially on Sunday
Now more common on rural roads, the village entrance is marked with some crisp but purely decorative white fencing. It also makes a good place for some advertising.
