Bridport, England, Dorset
Bridport is a market town in Dorset, England. Located near the coast at
the western end of Chesil Beach at the confluence of the River Brit and
its Asker and Simene tributaries, it originally thrived as a fishing
port and rope-making centre (the hangman's rope being made at Bridport
gave birth to the saying "stabbed with a Bridport dagger"). The port is
no longer in existence although the harbour at West Bay is a mile away.
