West Bexington Dorset Map

About West Bexington

West Bexington rests close to the Dorset coast, a quiet hamlet where the land slopes gently towards the sea. It lies 9.1 km south-east of Bridport (from Bridport: bearing 131°T, OS grid SY 533 868), and is situated south-south-east of Swyre village. The air here often carries a salty tang, a subtle reminder of the proximity to Chesil Beach, a magnificent sweep of shingle that curves for miles. The scattered cottages, some of them ancient stone, seem to absorb the pale, diffused light that characterises this stretch of the South West. Little more than a scattering of dwellings and agricultural buildings, West Bexington offers a profound sense of peace, a place where the passage of time feels measured by the ebb and flow of the tide. The surrounding fields, often a rich green or gold depending on the season, speak of generations of careful cultivation, a quiet industry that has shaped this landscape.
