The Dorset Historic Towns Project report on Bridport.
The distinct historic urban character of Bridport is formed by the historic T-shaped town layout with wide streets and extensive survival of burgage plots, along with a high level of survival of historic domestic and industrial buildings. The landscape setting of the town is also an important influence on its historic character.
The underlying historic town structure is complemented by the high quality of the historic buildings. The mixture of merchants' houses, workers' and artisans' houses, industrial buildings including open and covered ropewalks and combined industrial and domestic buildings is unique in Bridport.
Here is a summary of the report.
