The Trinity House Obelisk, also known as the Trinity House Landmark, is a 19th-century obelisk located at Portland Bill, on the Isle of Portland, Dorset, England. Built as a daymark, it has been Grade II Listed since 1978.[1] The obelisk was built in 1844 to warn ships off the coast of Portland Bill. It stands at the southern tip of the Isle of Portland, acting as a warning of the low shelf of rock extending 30 metres south into the sea. The obelisk is made of Portland stone and is seven metres in height. It is inscribed "TH 1844" on its north face. The monument was saved from threatened demolition in 2002 after Trinity House deemed it too expensive to maintain.

Portland Bill is a narrow promontory (or bill) at the southern end of the Isle of Portland, and the southernmost point of Dorset, England. One of Portland's most popular destinations is Portland Bill Lighthouse. Portland's coast has been notorious for the number of shipwrecked vessels over the centuries. The dangerous coastline features shallow reefs and the Shambles sandbank, made more hazardous due to the strong Portland tidal race. The Bill is an important way-point for coastal traffic, and three lighthouses have been built to protect shipping. The original two worked as a pair from 1716, and they were replaced in 1906 by the current one.

The lighthouse is open to visitors and it is possible to climb the steep steps during a guided tour. From the top you can enjoy impressive views across the english channel and watch yachts and fishing boats navigate a dangerous stretch of water, known as the Portland Race. If you’re feeling peckish after exploring the lighthouse, the Lobster Pot is the ideal place to stop for a bite to eat. It is incredibly popular and renowned locally for its impressive service and simple yet delicious menu. the cost of entry to lighthouse is £8.50

A highlight of a trip to Weymouth is seeing the bridge go up

Portland Bill is the southern tip of the isle of Portland. This spot has been an important signal location since Roman times. There has been a lighthouse here since at least the early 1700s. Today the lighthouse is automated and there is a large obelisk, built in the 19th century as a day mark. The South West Coast Path runs around the edge and a loop of the island makes for a brilliant run.

Beautiful old bridge which is scheduled to open at 10am, 12pm, 14pm and 16pm. Unfortunately we weren't there

If its anything like the bridge in Lowestoft make sure your the right side when it goes up just incase it doesn't come back down again

Picturesque historic bustling harbour area forming the mouth of the River Wey. Plenty of restaurants and cafe along this stretch of water on both sides.

Small cafe situated just off from the Lighthouse… A number of trails leading away in different directions.

Flat cycle way out to Portland which is not flat. Shared with pedestrians. Subject to pretty strong cross winds (right on the coast). Stop off at the RSPB site (with shop) and Taste Cafe for eats and enjoy the views from Chesil Beach. Nice videos of bird life to watch and you can take a look at some in real life too. Some excited birders today ;looking for White Eagle aka Sea Eagle seen recently (Apri; 2022) but you will be lucky to see one of those!

Weymouth Town Bridge is a lifting bascule bridge in Weymouth, Dorset, England, connecting the formerly separate boroughs of Weymouth and Melcombe Regis. The bridge can be lifted to allow boats access to the inner backwater of Weymouth Harbour, known as Weymouth Marina.

Beautiful coastal scenery along the Rodwell Trail. Best time to take this cycle route is in the mornings, as can get rather busy during the early evening.

The ‘dripping well’ is a petrifying well; twigs, leaves and artifacts caught on the rock face become coated with tufa deposited as calcium carbonate-rich groundwater is exposed to the atmosphere.

Flat traffic free 3.5km walk or bicycle ride on Weymouth’s former railway line.
