More about this scene
This is East Bridge, at the eastern end of East Street (far right), looking eastwards from the north bank of the River Asker. The street becomes East Road and was gated with a level crossing (in front of the thatched cottage) for the West Bay extension of the Bridport Railway, in use from 1884 to 1962. Here the town had its own second halt, known as West Street Station, from the 1884 opening of the line until its closure in 1930. The trees (right) obscure stucco-fronted houses dating from about 1840.
