Description: | View down the High Street towards the Plestor. The Queen's hotel is just off the picture to the right, though the building used as an annexe appears. Further on, behind the trees is the old butchers shop mentioned by Gilbert White while at the far end of the photograph is the grocery store, Maxwell and Son which operated from 1832 until 1948. Halfway down on the left is the gable end of what was the Selborne Bookshop run by Anne Mallinson for twenty five years until its closure in 1993. Behind that can be seen the chimneys of the Wakes, a building that is now a museum to Gilbert White the naturalist and to Captain Oates a member of Scott's expedition to the South Pole.
