웨이머스와 포틀랜드 최고의 워킹 & 하이킹 경로

마치 활기 넘치는 사면의 막대 사탕처럼 우뚝 솟은 Jubilee Clock은 웨이머스의 최고의 "거기서 만나" 랜드마크입니다. 1888년 빅토리아 여왕의 즉위 50주년을 기념하기 위해 지어진 이 빨간색, 금색, 흰색의 빅토리아 시대 걸작은 마치 거인의 장난감 상자에서 바로 꺼낸 듯한 모습입니다. 예전에는 모래사장에 있는 돌 받침대 위에 있었지만, Esplanade가 그 주위로 확장되었습니다! 오늘날, 그것은 왕실의 위엄을 지니고 모든 해안 폭풍을 견뎌냅니다. 완벽한 셀카 배경입니다. 피쉬 앤 칩스를 먹으러 늦어도 시계를 탓하지 마세요!

Great place to stop for coffee and cake, opens at 10am

Check out the floral clock in Greenhill gardens. You can see the restored clockwork mechanism, one of very few still working. It "cuckoos" on the hour, quarter and half.

Weymouth seafront is the epitome of a classic British seaside resort, featuring a magnificent, long crescent of golden sandy beach backed by a graceful, sweeping Georgian esplanade. This sheltered bay, known for its gently sloping, safe, and clean waters, makes it an ideal spot for swimming and traditional family holidays, complete with Punch and Judy shows and donkey rides on the sands. The esplanade itself is lined with elegant Georgian terraces now converted into hotels and guesthouses, providing a beautiful, historic backdrop to the lively scene, which leads eastward toward the attractions of the Weymouth Pavilion and the historic Old Harbour.

The most famous historic loading crane on the Isle of Portland is the Red Crane, located at the southernmost tip of the island near Portland Bill Lighthouse. This crane is a well-known industrial relic that highlights Portland's long history with its famous Portland Stone. Original Purpose (Stone Loading): The Red Crane is part of a disused stone-loading quay. In the 19th and early 20th centuries, this area was a working quarry. The original hand-operated wooden crane was used to hoist massive blocks of quarried Portland Stone from the cliff edge down to small sailing vessels waiting below for shipment off the island (often to London for famous buildings like St Paul's Cathedral). Current Primary Use (Fishing): The original wooden crane was replaced with a more durable steel crane (which is still famously painted red, giving it its name). This modern steel crane remains in use today, not for stone, but to help local fishermen lower and raise their small crab and lobster boats from the water.
