Shaftesbury is a charming historical town located in Dorset, United Kingdom. Perched on a hilltop, it offers stunning views over the Blackmore Vale. Shaftesbury is renowned for its picturesque Gold Hill, a steep cobbled street that has been featured in many films and advertisements, most famously in the 1970s Hovis bread commercial. The town boasts a rich history, with its origins dating back to Saxon times, and it was once home to Shaftesbury Abbey, one of the most important religious centers in medieval England.
