About This Image

The view is of 'Gold Hill' Shaftesbury, Dorset, England. A steep cobbled street lined with uniquely individual thatched and tiled cottages, looks out across the Blackmore Vale and fields broken by hedgerows in a scene that evokes the best of traditional English charm.
Shaftesbury is a small Market Town with history that goes back to medieval times.
Gold Hill, was made famous by the Hovis Bread advertisement in 1973 and is voted Britain's favourite TV ad, which you can view on (YouTube) at www.Quickrelease.tv
Go on take a look, a real step back in time.
Enjoy:)

Lovely shot of Gold Hill, Chriss. Did you and Paul walk up/down it? I definitely wouldn't be wanting to cycle or skateboard down that street. LOL :)
