    Watching this again, you turned right off the river and entered an area with small shops then turned right back to the beach. However if you had turned left you would have gone thru narrow maze of streets to the harbour. Turning right and walking eastwards you would have encountered gardens sloping down to the beach and on the other left hand side a large country park area with boats, aquarium. Further on a lagoon.....on the opposite side of the river is a fort and gardens, narrow streets, museum and brewery and some small B & Bs...

    Lovely again. We were there 4 years ago picking up a big lathe via Dorchester where we did most of the day and then on to Abbotsbury where we enjoyed the beach. This is a SERIOUS BEACH and all of pebbles stretches from Weymouth 15 miles towards West Bay. Did a circuit of the town and found the lathes owner. Bunged in the car and home to Reading slowly via a Chinese Takeaway of course. D and L.

    Oh wow! So lovely to see Weymouth in the winter. I was there back in August for the first time and funnily enough started editing my vlog from a bright sunny August day there this morning to put on my channel on Sunday.
    I just scratched the very surface of it and can not wait to return. I really enjoy all your videos, particularly the South West England ones recently.

    I find it amusing that North Parade and North Quay are on the SOUTH side of the harbour!

    Is the sand sculpture man still there? Lovely Weymouth. Happy memories. Great video

    • @jonsnell4751
      @jonsnell4751 Рік тому +1

      Yes he is still there in a large purpose built shell shaped building on the sand. A view of the building is straight ahead as the camera moved onto the beach, where Bernard, an engineer friend of mine, is repairing the railings for the coming season.

    So enjoyed this video of Weymouth with its Georgian architecture, beach and history. This was my first posting in 1975 when I joined Dorset Police (in January as well!). Some good memories of that time and the town doesn't appear to have changed that much or lost its charm. I wonder if the old Police cells are still under the Guildhall?! A good spot for a warm up on a winter Sunday early turn! Thanks again 👍

    The beach is on the Melcombe Regis side and Weymouth was on the same side as the lifeboat station, now all one place.

    ou never mentioned the Weymouth Quay Tramway which used to take trains from Waterloo direct to Weymouth Marine Station ( probably where the Pavilion is now ) . The trains used to run along the Quay side where you started your walk, One problem was cars parked in the way of the trains, despite the notices warning Trains run along here. I travelled on it twice, once with a main line loco ( Class 33 ) direct from Waterloo, and once with a Class 03 shunter, having changed locos at Weymouth, There are lots of videos on UTube showing it use, It ran fron 1865 till Sept 1999 when the last train ran over it.
