Bridport harbour


Bridport in Dorset is a small market town two miles inland from a small harbour. This is often, unsurprisingly, called Bridport Harbour, but it also goes by the name West Bay. The harbour has the usual collection of pleasure craft and a small number of inshore fishing boats. It is something of a tourist destination and its desirability as a place to live is attested by the housing built on West Cliff, the 1885 terrace called Pier Terrace, and Quay West, two blocks of modern flats seen on the far side of the harbour in the photograph above.
