In accordance with the procedure laid down in section 60(1) and (2) of the 1972 Act, notice was given on 31 December 1974 that we were to undertake this review* This was incorporated In a consultation letter addressed to the Weymouth and Portland Borough Council, copies of which were circulated to the Dorset County Council, the Parish Council in the district, the Member of Parliament for the constituency concerned and the headquarters of the main political parties*. Copies were also sent to the editors of local newspapers circulating in the area and of the local government press* Notices inserted in the local press announced thtt start of the review and invited comments from members of the public and from any interested bodies, 3* Vermouth and Portland Borough Council were invited to prepare a draft scheme of representation for our consideration. In doing so, they were asked to observe the rules laid down in Schedule 11 to the Local Government Act 1972 and the guidelines which we set out in our Report No 6 about the proposed size of the Council and the proposed number of councillors for each ward. They were asked also to take into account any views expressed to them following their consultation with local interests. We therefore asked that they should publish details of their provisional proposals about a month before they submitted their draft scheme to us, thus allowing an opportunity for local comment. 4* In accordance with section 7(4)(b) of the local Government Act 1972 the Council exercised an option for a system of elections by thirds* 5. Qa 28 May 1975 Weymouth and Portland Borough Council presented their draft scheme of representation* The Council proposed to divide the area into 13 wards each returning 3 councillors to form a council of 39 members. 6* Despite publicity in the local newspapers the draft scheme received no comment. We considered the draft scheme but noted that the standard of equality of representation was uneven, particularly with regard to the parish of Portland, which was substantially over-represented compared with the rest of the district* We were also of the opinion that for a district of this size and character and in the absence of any compelling reasons to the contrary, a council of 39 members would be too large* Further, the division of the district into 13 three-member wards would not be compatible with future county electoral arrangements* for these reasons we found the draft scheme unacceptable and decided to refer it back to the Borough Council with a request that it should be redrawn to secure greater equality of representation, a smaller council and compatibility with county electoral arrangements* 7. On 1 October 1976 the Weymouth and Portland Borough Council submitted a revised draft scheme in which they proposed to divide the district into H wards each returning two or three members to form a council of 35 members. The Borough Council had published details of their revised proposals about a month earlier and invited comments upon them. 8. The comments included representations from a local political association about the proposed Radipole ward. A local borough councillor wrote suggesting a minor modification to the boundary between the proposed Weymouth East and Weymouth West wards. Another borough councillor, also a member of Portland Town Council, objected to the revised draft scheme insofar as it would influence the future county electoral divisions for the parish of Portland, One other local councillor suggested an alternative scheme comprising 14 two-member wards to form a total council of 28. 9. We considered the revised draft scheme together with the comments which had been made* The Weymouth and Portland Borough Council's revised scheme met our objections to their original scheme in that it offered both a good standard of equality of representation and potential compatibility* We decided therefore to adopt their revised draft schema as our draft proposals subject to minor . modifications recommended by the Ordnance Survey in the interest of good boundaries. 10. We Issued our draft proposals on 11 February 1977 and these were sent, to all who had received our consultation letter or who had commented on the Council's draft schemes. The Council were asked to make these draft proposals > and the accompanying map which defined the proposed ward boundaries, available for inspection at their main offices. Representations on our draft proposals were invited from those to whoa they were circulated, and, by public notices, from other members of the public and interested bodies. We asked that comments should reach us by 15 April 1977* 11. The Weymouth and Portland Borough Council suggested a number of minor amendments to the description of the proposed ward boundaries which had been included with our draft proposals. We noted that these suggestions bed with Ordnance Survey who had accepted them in part, and that a revised ward* description had been prepared. The Dorset County Council confirmed that our draft proposals would be compatible with their proposed number of county electoral divisions* The local political party which had previously commented on the draft scheme wrote again reiterating ita objections to the proposed Badipole ward bat offered no satisfactory alternative which would comply with the statutory requirement for equality of representation* 12. We reviewed our draft proposals in the light of the comments which we had received and resolved that they should be confirmed subject to the minor changes in-boundary descriptions mentioned in paragraph 11. We formulated our final proposals accordingly* 13. Details of these final proposals are set out in Schedules 1 and 2 to this report and on the attached map. Schedule 1 gives the names of the wards and the number of councillors to be returned by each. Schedule 2 shows our proposals for the order of retirement of councillors. The boundaries of the proposed new wards are defined on the map* PUBLICAJIOH 17* In accordance with Section 60(5)(b) of the Local Government Act 1972 a copy of this report and a copy of the map are being sent to Weymouth and Portland Borough Council and will be available for public inspection at the Council's main offices. Copies of this report without the map are also being sent to those who received the consultation letter and to those who made comments.

  • The Weymouth Mission
    The Weymouth Mission This story of Christian witness in Dorset is based on an account drawn up in 1991, using documents and photographs from the Parish archives, at the request of Fr Patrick Mulvaney, and Fr Joseph Phelan who were at that time Parish Priests at St Augustine’s and St Joseph’s Churches respectively. The original archive is now believed lost. The account also includes a contribution from the late Gwen Greenslade OPL who researched the history of the Dominican Order in Weymouth. In the Beginning... Christianity in South Dorset goes back to Roman times. Constantine the Great allowed toleration to Christians in 313 AD and Christianity became the State Religion of the Empire in 324 AD. The mosaic floor at Hinton St Mary depicts Christ and the chi-rho sign. Many of the burials at Poundbury indicate Christians. Perhaps the Roman settlement at Radipole had Christians in its population during the 4th Century. When the Saxons broke through to Dorset in the 7th century they were mainly Christians, as St Augustine and friends had done their work well in the South East. By the 13th century, Weymouth on the west bank of the harbour, and Melcombe on the east side were fully fledged towns. The Church at Radipole is said to be the oldest building in the Weymouth area and dates from about 1250. It was originally dedicated to St Mary, and served Melcombe Regis. All Saints Church at Wyke served Weymouth. The French had a nasty habit of raiding the towns when the inhabitants were away attending Mass at the two churches.

Situated on the north shore of the harbour and extending to Lodmoor Hill, it includes Weymouth seafront, town centre and the residential areas of Greenhill and the Park District. Yet, despite its attributes it is the Borough ward with most evidence of multiple deprivation and is within the 10% most deprived neighbourhoods in the country (Public Health England Local Health Profiles 2015). It scores high levels of deprivation in living environment; education; skills and training; health; employment; income and crime. The area has seen few improvements since the previous index was published in 2010. Melcombe Regis has many great features that are enjoyed by locals and thousands of visitors every year. But it is a ward with many constituent parts. The blend of private and rented housing, homes of multiple occupancy; hotels; guesthouses and retail; commercial and leisure activities make up a very diverse area. Despite performing relatively well, Melcombe Regis has suffered from the structural decline of seaside resort towns, low paid seasonal jobs and cheap, poorer quality housing has created a high transient population many with complex needs. Health and wellbeing is affected by a variety of factors, some of which are amenable to change, either by personal choice such as diet or by external influences, for instance changes to the local environment.

He then led a small non-conformist congregation, who met in various places in the town. In 1672 a licence was obtained to use the house of James Reed. In 1703 three messuages in St Nicholas Street were purchased and in 1705 conveyed to the Congregational Trustees. There is evidence to suggest that part of this site had been used by the Presbyterians as a meeting place since 1672. In 1805 the church was re-built and in 1817 extensive alterations took place. During the 1820s the Church helped to establish a Congregational chapel in Weymouth in Hope Square [see NP.9] and later one in Radipole. In 1864 a new church was built in Gloucester Street. They continued to worship there until 1971 when the church was closed and the congregation joined Hope Congregational Church; Gloucester Street church was demolished soon after.

It lies to the north of the busy town centre besides the expansive Back Water lagoon as a buffer between town and country. 1.3 A slip of land, the park and gardens were created in part to alleviate local unemployment through land reclamation within an area with an ancient history of trade and industry. In fact, the site is the only realised part of a much more ambitious scheme: Radipole Lakes, wherein leading landscape designers, Milner Son & White promoted a series of island destinations complete with tea gardens, boating lakes and sports facilities.
