I found this little gem on the British Pathe films website – a great archive of old British newsreel footage. It’s a short travelogue on Shaftesbury, Dorset – my favorite village in England.
What’s amazing is how little has changed since this film was made. Though the trees on the Park Walk are no longer there, which is a shame.





















Anglotopia was founded by Jonathan and Jackie Thomas for people who love Britain - whether it's British TV, Culture, History or Travel - we cover it all. Anglotopia was started to get us back to the UK for a trip and it did that in 2009. Now, the goal is for Anglotopia to make our dream of living in the UK a reality.
