THE
LAURELS, WEST STREET, BERE REGIS in 1970.
|
The 'Laurels' cottage at the bottom of Butt Lane in West Street was one of three ex-army wooden buildings put up in Bere Regis at the end of the First World War. This one was cement rendered and pebble-dashed. The other two were at the point where Sitterton joins West Street at the west of the village, and the other was latterly the Scout Hut just south of the entrance to Cemetery Lane. Both were intended to be temporary buildings, but all survived to the late 1980s. This particular view shows very little traffic despite this being the main A35 road at this time.
