Information

On 1914 Charminster's first regular bus route was introduced between Cemetry Junction and the Fiveways. There were two designed buses the Daimler and the Tilling-Stevens.

These buses were originally seen as supplementary to the trams but this route was withdrawn at the outbreak of the war but their popularity grew in the 1920s and in 1931 buses finally got formal routes with three routes covering the Charminster area.
