Sturminster Marshall: a Newton Road sign
This is a typical old Wimborne District Council street name sign, with the embossed lettering, serif typeface, rounded corners and pointy concrete pillars. They were traditionally black-on-white, though, rather than white-on-blue.

Wimborne District was renamed East Dorset District in 1988.
