    Section 34: Western Dorset Functional Area ___________________________________________________________ 34. Western Dorset Functional Area Introduction 34.1.1. The Western Dorset Functional Area is centred on the historic market town of Bridport and includes the small market town of Beaminster and the coastal resort of Lyme Regis. Function and issues 34.1.2. The function of each of the main settlements is described in Figure 34.1 below, which also highlights some of the key issues in each of the main settlements. The three towns generally have a good range of services and some job opportunities, but there is a range of issues including: a low wage economy; an ageing population; a lack of affordable housing; and, in the case of Lyme Regis and in some villages, a high level of second home ownership. Figure 34.1: The function and issues associated with the main settlements in the Western Dorset Functional Area Beaminster - The small market town of Beaminster lies about 6 miles north of Bridport and has a population of about 2,900. The town has a range of local shops and facilities in the town centre and a secondary school. Although the Clipper Tea Company and other firms offer some employment opportunities, there is a net outflow of workers. The town has an elderly population and has experienced a decline in population in recent years. Bridport - Bridport is a historic market town, which together with West Bay has a population of over 13,900. It is the main service centre in the western part of Dorset and a centre for the arts, culture and tourism.

  • S I D M O U T H
    S I D M O U T H Newsletter September 2017 Issue 48 From the Chairman I closed my piece in the last newsletter by wishing you a great summer unfortunately that has now passed and, according to the met office, we are now officially in Autumn! One of the "hot topics" for the last newsletter was the proposed takeover of the lease of St Francis Church Hall by the Sidmouth Town Band, this has been delayed with no further developments likely until December this year. I'm confident that many organisations, apart from the U3A, hope that the layout of the hall does not change regardless of who operates the lease. It is with some sadness that I've learnt of the passing of Joy Pollock, a founder member of Sidmouth U3A. Joy along with Madge White and June Newbould were the three ladies who met at the Sidmouth Sports Centre and decided to create a steering committee to set-up a U3A branch in Sidmouth. That small seed planted in October 1993 with 15 members has blossomed into our present branch with approaching 350 members. The original membership fee was £5 per head but interestingly the attendance charge for a monthly meeting was 50p the same as it is today! The U3A which Joy helped to start was very different to the organisation we have today, however, when Joy attended the anniversary lunch in 2014 she seemed to approve of the way the branch had developed. There will be those who remember Joy and mourn the passing of one our founder members.
