Continuing our journey along Chesil Beach you pass the village of Abbotsbury once home to a richly endowed abbey, founded in 1044. Situated in a wooded, sheltered valley close to Chesil beach is Abbotsbury Gardens where these natural conditions create a microclimate where rare plant species unusual to England grow
As our journeys comes to its conclusion, we visit the famous town where Broadchurch was filmed! On our way to Westbay in the Market town of Bridport. The golden strata of nearby East Cliff are one of the most distinctive features of the Jurassic Coast, and the area is very popular with walkers. East Beach has been designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest, and forms the end of Chesil Beach, which extends 18 miles south west from the Isle of Portland. The cliffs here are very unstable, so it’s important to keep well clear of the cliff edges and bases.
