The Beehive, Salisbury
This is the former toll house on the A345 at the junction of the Salisbury-Amesbury road with the old road to Marlborough. The turnpike closed in 1876 and the house was sold to the Salisbury Dean and Chapter for £100. It was described then as 'a messuage or tenement lately used as a toll house and called the Old Sarum Toll House with the garden and appurtenances'. Locally it has always been referred to as 'The Beehive' and it has recently been restored. It has also given its nickname to the modern Park and Ride facility nearby.

Ford, footpath
Avoiding the junction of Castle Hill and Portway; looking at the road engineering, it appears that this is the original road junction, now by-passed by a roundabout, left background.

Beehive park and ride [2]
The entrance from the roundabout.
Around the city of Salisbury are five park and ride locations. Beehive is on the A345 road near Old Sarum.
A cathedral was established at the Iron Age hillfort of Old Sarum by the Normans. In 1220 the cathedral was removed to the nearby plain and New Sarum (Salisbury) grew up around it, receiving a city charter in 1227. Located at the confluence of five rivers (Avon, Nadder, Ebble, Wylye and Bourne) the city is prone to flooding. Traffic between the ports of Southampton and Bristol, passes around the city's ring-road via the A36 causing much congestion.
