Broad Stone (Dorset) submitted by TheCaptain on 18th Nov 2007. Some of us mega Portal admins met up for lunch and a chat in Dorset today. And despite the apalling weather, we made the effort out of the pub to check out a few old things.
Here we are at the poor old Broadstone. Poor abused thing. We tidied it up a bit, making sure it doesn't become comletely buried.
