Have you seen the lovely 'Love Dorchester Like a Local' exhibition in South Street?

The old Marks and Spencer building is displaying portraits of residents in its windows with the reasons why they love the town.

Dorchester Tourism Partnership has been working with local photographer Paul Haigh to capture portraits and short videos of local people as part of the project, who are giving their recommendations of places to go and things to do and enjoy in Dorchester.

It features Becky, who recommends Maumbury Rings, Shire Hall Museum, Dorchester Arts and Maiden Castle, Tosin who enjoys long walks in and around the town, Mark who loves to eat and drink at The King's Arms and Feed The Soul, Maisie and Matilda who recommend the Borough Gardens, Dorset Museum, Plaza Cinema and more.

Go and take a look, there may be something in this wonderful town you have missed!
