Annual average, 2012. Proportion of resident population aged 16-64 4 INTRODUCTION [Back to Contents] At 418 square miles, West Dorset is the largest of Dorset’s districts, covering 42% of the county’s total area and with a population of 99,500. West Dorset is a predominantly rural area (97%) supported by small market towns and with a relatively low population density. Rural/Urban classifications: 2001 and 2011 100% 99% 98% 81% 80% 76% 76% 67% 62% 61% 61% 59% 59% 54% 46% 41% 41% 40% 39% 38% 34% 24% 24% 20% 19% 2% 1% 0% DCC Dorset Christchurch East Dorset North Dorset Purbeck West Dorset Weymouth & Portland Urban population 2001 Urban population 2011 Rural population 2001 Rural Population 2011 Of the total population in West Dorset, 61% live in the rural part of the district16 and 60% of these live in villages and hamlets/isolated dwellings. The proportion of residents in West Dorset that live in hamlets/isolated is 11%, which is the highest proportion of residents living in this type of area among the Dorset districts, after North Dorset. With its spectacular world heritage coast and historic landmarks such as Maiden Castle and the Cerne Giant, West Dorset is a popular tourist destination. It has also been the location for many film and TV productions and was the setting for much of the work of Thomas Hardy and William Barnes. With road links to the Bournemouth-Poole conurbation and rail links from Dorchester to London and Bristol, West Dorset is by no means out of touch with the business world. Travel times17 vary with the time of year and time of day. Holiday traffic can make a big difference to travel times and there is often morning and late afternoon congestion as people travel to and from work or school. Some approximate travel times from Dorchester are shown below, but longer should be allowed at peak times. Poole 40 minutes Bournemouth 45 minutes Salisbury 1 hour 16 The settlement based Rural/Urban definition was introduced in 2004 as a joint project between a number of government departments. It comprises four settlement types, of which three are rural: Urban (population over 10,000); Town and Fringe; Village; and Hamlet and Isolated Dwellings. 17 sourced from AA Route Planner at http://www.theaa.com/route-planner/index.jsp 5 Exeter 1 hour 20 minutes Bristol 1 hour 35 minutes Southampton 1 hour 15 minutes London 2 hours 55 minutes Manchester 4 hours 40 minutes Birmingham 3 hours 15 minutes Dorchester and Sherborne have railway stations.

  • The West Dorset Fossil Collecting Code of Conduct
    The West Dorset Fossil Collecting Code of Conduct Developing a Code of Conduct A Working Group of landowners, conservation organisations, museum curators and local fossil collectors has developed this Fossil Collecting Code. The Group was established in order to address growing conflicts of interest with regard to fossil collecting along the West Dorset coast. The Group recognises the essential need for fossil collecting to continue. However, it also recognises that collecting must be carried out in such a way as to satisfy all those with an interest in our fossil heritage. This Code, though specifically aimed at professional and dedicated amateur collectors, also applies to all those who come here to collect fossils, whether for study or recreation. The safest and best advice, particularly for inexperienced collectors and educational groups, is that they should restrict their activities to the beaches alone. Advice to this effect is provided by interpretation signs, leaflets and the services of the Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre. The Code has been developed by: Jurassic Coast project (Dorset County Council) English Nature The National Trust West Dorset Heritage Coast Project Charmouth Parish Council Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre Dorset and Somerset Museum Services Local fossil collectors The Geology and Fossils of the West Dorset coast The West Dorset coast contains one of the finest exposures of rocks from the Lower and Mid Jurassic Period to be found anywhere in the world. High erosion rates, particularly in the winter, ensure a plentiful supply of fossils onto the beaches. This coast is one of the best sources of marine Jurassic aged fossils in the world and numerous important finds have been and continue to be made here.
