More about this scene
Bransgore's present church is a mostly Victorian structure, though its exquisitely carved font, transported here from Christchurch Priory, is 16th-century. The old Litany Desk commemorates parishioner Henry Nicholson, 'a chief musician in this House of God'.

Sparked a Memory for you?
If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?
I loved this charming village, I remember the 'fishmonger' and the 'greengrocer' bringing their wares from door to door with their 'horsedrawn' carts (yes, even in 1956). I used to walk her dog with auntie Joan to this very post office to mail letters and get 'bits and pieces". Auntie Joan always loved the small country places, she lived in many places like this because of her husband's work. I had the privelage of visiting all her 'little hidaways' throughout England and Scotland.
The Post Office brings back many happy memories. In 1954 to 1957 I served in the RAF at Sopley. Some of us would walk to the Post Office to send letters home & meet friends we had made in the village. If anyone remembers the good times we had... Thankyou. - B Haywood
