  • Coastal Defence
    Dorset Marine and Coastal Topic Paper Series 2010 Coastal Defence Dorset has a dynamic coastline: in the past, uninterrupted coastal processes created some of its most beautiful and important features . However, the issue of coastal retreat in this area was first recorded in 1366 at Highcliffe. Erosion and flooding by the sea are hazardous to property and infrastructure on the coast, and so there will always be demands for coastal defence works to protect property. This will mean that natural processes are inevitably interrupted. Data regarding climate change and sea level rise (SLR) suggest that these natural processes will accelerate during the 21st century and this will place greater pressure on both available finances and engineering solutions. Balancing the desire to protect property whilst maintaining the integrity of the natural coast requires creative engineering solutions, and difficult decisions have to be made about where and how to protect. • Coast protection works which protect the processes in neighbouring coastal against erosion. This is where the process units. land behind the works is higher than Sediment cell is a term frequently used any expected tidal flooding level. with regards to Shoreline Management These works are carried out under the Plans.

  • 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.

  • Joint Local Plan Review for West Dorset, Weymouth and Portland
    Joint Local Plan Review for West Dorset, Weymouth and Portland INITIAL ISSUES AND OPTIONS CONSULTATION FEBRUARY 2017 West Dorset, Weymouth & Portland Local Plan Review Foreword We are delighted to introduce the review of the West Dorset, Weymouth & Portland joint Local Plan. Although it is only a short time ago since the examination and adoption of the joint Local Plan, the inspector who examined the plan said that the councils should prepare an early review. This review needs to identify additional land capable of meeting housing needs to the end of the current plan period (2031) as well as the broad locations for development in the five year period thereafter (to 2036). The inspector pointed towards Dorchester and Sherborne as locations for future growth, but we have also considered a range of options in our coastal and market towns. Government planning policy has changed on a number of issues including the introduction of ‘starter homes’ and ‘self build and custom housebuilding’ aimed to fulfil the Government’s priority to build more homes. We are therefore addressing these issues too. This first consultation document presents the issues relevant to the plan area today and seeks your thoughts on the different options that we can take. It is important to remember that these are ‘options’ which will be refined at a later stage - there is no commitment to any one solution at this point. The review of the adopted local plan is just starting and we are keen to seek as many different views as possible before we go any further. Your views are really important to us and the feedback we receive will guide decisions as the plan progresses towards examination and adoption.

  • Charmouth Beach to Seatown Coastal Access: Lyme Regis to Rufus Castle - Natural England’S Proposals
    www.gov.uk/natural-england Chapter 2: Charmouth Beach to Seatown Coastal Access: Lyme Regis to Rufus Castle - Natural England’s Proposals Part 2.1: Introduction Start Point: Charmouth Beach (grid reference: SY 3663 9312) End Point: Seatown (grid reference: SY 4200 9176) Relevant Maps: 2a to 2d Understanding the proposals and accompanying maps: The Trail: 2.1.1 Follows the South West Coast Path, using public footpaths and other existing walked routes along the cliff top (see maps 2b, 2c & 2d), except as detailed in paragraphs 2.1.2 and 2.1.3 below. 2.1.2 Between Charmouth and Cain’s Folly, the proposed route avoids areas of active landslip and erosion but is much closer to the sea. See map 2a and table 2.2.1 below for details of the proposed route and table 2.2.2 for a more detailed explanation of the other route option we considered. 2.1.3 At Golden Cap, we propose a minor change to protect the scheduled monument (see map 2d, LRR- 2-S030). 2.1.4 Maintains excellent views of the sea for the most part, but cuts inland at Seatown to take the trail past an unstable cliff edge and some nearby buildings and gardens (see map 2d). 2.1.5 This part of the coast includes the following sites, designated for nature conservation, geological or heritage preservation (see map C of the Overview): Sidmouth to West Bay Special Area of Conservation (SAC) West Dorset Coast Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) 2.1.6 We have assessed the potential impacts of access along the proposed route (and over the associated spreading room described below) on the features for which the affected land is designated and on any which are protected in their own right.
