Well done to the locsl council for keeping Bridport unspoilt with large retailers and supermarkets.
Also so many old buildings and structures been tastefully restored right down to the towns post box. 😊
I really liked Bridport.
There was much to admire.
Unfortunately I didn't have time for a longer wander, as I suspect there is more to see.
Cheers Shaun!
Hello Paul - greetings from Poland
A superb video, bringing back so many memories for me. Iknow Bridport very well both for pleasure and business. The insurnace company I worked for underwrote insurnace covers for what was the worlds largest manufacture of football nets. I don't think the company exists anymore.
Beautifully photographed with an excellent commentary. More from Dorset please.
Thank you Michael!
Glad you enjoyed it and it brought back memories for you.
I do hope to return to Dorset later in the year.
Thanks again,
Take care,
Paul
Bridport is such a handsome town. I greatly admire anywhere that can provide such a good number of benches!
Thank you Faith!
Yes, a lot of benches in the town - always a good thing!
It is a rather lovely town
Glad you enjoyed it.
Take care,
Paul
Yes Paul. A very nice tour of Bridport, with its many local shops. It also has a very large and busy market on Saturdays. Parking is a major problem on those days too. It's a pity more people don't use the buses.
I hoped you might have found the site of the railway station. I'm pretty certain it had one, in addition to the terminus at West Bay. Thanks for all your work and research.
Thank you Lionel! Yes, the station was near that decorator centre that I showed near the end but sadly no trace whatsoever of the station now.
It is on the Jurassic Coast bus route from Axminster Station though, which is good, although I did use my car on this occasion. I try not to,but Dorset particularly West Dorset can be awkward to get to from where I live via bus rail - well over 6 hours and five changes!
Always great to hear from you.
Take care,
Paul
A lovely town, largely unspoilt! Great video. Thanks Paul
Thank you Michael!
Glad you enjoyed it.
Take care,
Paul
Video nicely captures traces of Bridport's industrial heritage, which is what struck me when I made a day visit some years ago. Alas, I missed the museum. Good to see some of the former mills repurposed for, I assume, 'affordable local housing'.
Thank you Malcolm!
It is a lovely little town that is steeped in history.
I didn't get time to go into the museum (this was the day that I filmed two other videos).
Thank you so much.
Take care,
Paul
My wife and I stayed in Bridport for a few days in the summer of 2019. We fondly remember this beautiful little town and its friendly residents on the south coast of Dorset. And of course delicious scones and cream tea
Thank you!
Yes, it really is a lovely little town with quite an arty feel to it too.
Glad it brought back memories of your holiday.
Cheers,
Paul
A beautiful little video which does the town of Bridport proud.
Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it.
I loved my visit here.
Paul
Lovely wee town to wander around in. It is - what it is - since it was. Just lovely. Throughly enjoyable amble Paul. Thanks for that. I hope your week is going well.👌🇳🇱 🙋♀🇳🇿
Thank you Anita!
Yes, I really enjoyed this walk around Bridport - a town with a lot of history and charm.
About to film my monthly vlog tomorrow - nearly the end of February already!
Hope you have a good week too!
Take care,
Paul
Hi Paul, Well that ends the Dorset trilogy but I hope you'll go back soon, when you can.
Its got a good selection of shops which is good to see, I had a chuckle at the department shop which was very small and approprately named Lilliput!! I'm sure its a great shop though!!
I just about remember driving through what would have been the A35 and there was a model railway shop. So I had a drive through again, virtually, lots of candidates but nothing there until you exited the western end where you will find Stuart Models and the Bridport Foundry.
I liked the centre piece with the stone carvings showing previous industries, really didnt know anything about the rope industry. Interesting comments on this from Michael.
Do like these short bites, well done!! All the best (snow tomorrow!!)
Thank you David!
Lots of interest in Bridport just a shame there are no remains of the station there.
Yes, rope making was a big thing in the town and boat building but since both rivers have now silted up it is hard to imagine what was once there and it having a boat building industry at all now.
I do hope to return to Dorset again this year - maybe make a base in Wareham (on the mainline) so I can cover Swanage Railway, Poole Harbour, Brownsea Island, etc.
Thanks again,
Cheers,
Paul
Hi Paul nice video and photos 👌👌
Thank you Roy!
Hope you have a lovely weekend.
Cheers,
Paul
shops and red phone box's great pics and video Paul
Thank you Colin!
Glad you enjoyed the little tour
It is a lovely Dorset town.
Take care,
Paul
A lovely video of one of my favourite towns - if it was only still served by the railway. That’s progress I guess 😠
Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it.
It is a lovely town. Surprised that not many videos of it on TH-cam - nearly all solely focus on West Bay.
Yes it would have been good to have caught the train from Maiden Newton off the Weymouth mainline. Thankfully, the local coast bus connects at Axminster Station for Bridport.
Cheers,
Paul
This is a really nice video Paul. Very relaxing music and bird song and beautiful images. I have only briefly visited Bridport on a Saturday morning for parkrun and then a lovely wander around the market. It’s a lovely town.
Thank you Louise!
Glad you enjoyed this little town tour of Bridport
Yes, it is a most charming town.
I really enjoyed the couple of hours that I spent here.
Thank you 😊
Familiar territory but really only the shops! I always mean to visit the brewery there! Thanks Paul!
Thank you Diana!
I didn't know it had a brewery.
Cheers,
Paul
The local brewery is Palmers. They run a few pubs in the area. Thanks Paul.
@@dianarolph1770 cheers Diana!
I love Bridport. I don't live there but would love to.
Thank you!
Yes, it is a really lovely town.
Cheers,
Paul
