Kinson is one of the old settlements that existed in and around the Stour Valley long before Bournemouth was officially founded in 1810.
This stretch of Wimborne Rd lies at what would have been the heart of Kinson but most of the 'old Kinson' has long since disappeared although some older properties still stand including St Andrews Church, Pelhams and Gullivers Tavern, plus the odd old gate post or two, in the centre of Kinson.
Others such as the Dower House and the former St Andrews Vicarage, now the Toby Carvery, in what was the neighbouring village of Ensbury, which is now known as Northbourne, and thatched cottages in East Howe Lane, including the former Thatched House pub plus a few other bits and bobs also still survive in the vicinity.
Years ago Kinson used to cover a wider area than we may think of as Kinson today and covered land that is part of neighbouring Poole which is why the Kinson Pottery Industrial Estate out on Ringwood Rd in Poole is so named because the large Kinson Pottery works stood here into the 1960s
Kinson as we know it became part of Bournemouth in 1931, including East Howe, West Howe and on up to what is now the town boundary at Wallisdown Rd. Even at this time there was still a fairly rural aspect to the area as it would have been before the construction of large areas of council properties and other residential homes in the 50s and 60s.
The site of The Hub, which is the subject of this small series of images has most notably been occupied by a Victorian school until the 1950s, then a prefab library in the 1960s, and finally a more permanent library building from 1970 until 2008, when work to construct The Hub began.
The Hub incorporates a library and various other community outreach services and was officially opened by the television wildlife personality Chris Packham in 2010.

Eclectic decore of the Down Home Blues Club, home and music venue of Rentiesville Dusk til Dawn Blues Festival co-founder Mrs. Selby Minner, in Rentiesville, OK on Tuesday, Apr. 6, 2015. Minner recalled blues music history, her rise as a bass player, marriage with Blues legend D.C. Minner, settling into a rural community to create the Down Home Blues Club, and the area’s significance during and after the Civil War. This Blues venue and home is adjacent to the future site of the future Honey Springs Visitors’ Center, a multi-purpose community/visitor center and library that can educate people about one of thirteen remaining “All-Black Towns” that was populated by former slaves after the Civil War. U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) opened bids for building the multi-purpose community/visitor center and library in Rentiesville, OK in January 2015. The center is a multi-million dollar partnership between four federal agencies, a state agency, McIntosh County, several local businesses, and a non-profit organization. The federal involvement includes the National Park Service, as well as all three agencies of USDA Rural Development (RD) Rural Business Service (RBS), Rural Utilities Service (RUS), and Rural Housing Service (RHS).

bit saturated on the colors ... maybe ... but it matches my memory of the day, so that works for me.
Pretty sure most of these were shot at f/8 - f/11 with about 1/250 and handheld ..... waaay overexposed for this film stock, which is rated at 800
Pretty happy that I could recover a fair bit of detail and color on these.
Will try it at box speed on the next roll.
Awesome film - but now selling for $27 a roll !!!
RD 8275 - Freshwater Stud - Bedford WL horsebox; new 19/05/1936. West Oxon Steam & Vintage Show; Ducklington on 24th July 2016
This was more of a challenge before it got paved a few years ago. But still a attractive spot. I've climbed this stretch about 180 times this year (once at 21 mph, but usually about 13 mph).
Looking into Palmerston Rd from the Christchurch Rd end. A new building rises on the site of the old stone built toilet block that stood next to the Hendy Ford premises, now an Aldi supermarket.

Architect I. P. Tomashevsky at work (1932)
Another fabulous find at the MRCSF – and one of the main reasons for my visit – was the collection of photographs and drawings by the architect V. N. Dronnikoff (Владимир Николаевич Дронников; 1913–2010), whom Shanghai audiences know mainly as the creator of Delastre Apartments at 238 Taiyuan Road (because there is a heritage plaque). But he designed more buildings, in Shanghai and in Hong Kong, and in the coming days I'll be unloading the info here and on the Building Russian Shanghai.
A new toy! Smashing little camera with built in 40mm f1.7 Zuiko lens. Can't wait to try it out.
using it in manual at moment until i figure out what battery to buy for it. Seems a bit of a problem getting one with correct voltage?
