The calendar that sits on my desk at work has pictures of Britain on it, it’s very pretty. However, I was bored and flicking through it and came across August, and a picture of that hill in Shaftesbury. The calendar informed me that it was a picture of the pretty Dorset village of Goldhill that was used in the Hovis adverts. Hovis - correct. Dorset - correct. The rest is a lot of rubbish. It’s not Goldhill, it’s a street named Gold Hill, and it’s in the town (not village) of Shaftesbury, Dorset.
