About

Chickerell is a small town situated on the western edge of Weymouth. Its landscape is characterised by flat, open farmland and residential streets, with views extending towards the nearby Fleet lagoon. The area retains a quiet, residential character, with local shops and services centred along the main road.

To the south lies Chesil Bank, an immense 18-mile pebble ridge that separates the Fleet from the English Channel. This steep, curving bank of stones is a dominant natural feature, with the size of the pebbles gradually increasing from west to east. The shingle beach is exposed to the full force of south-westerly winds and waves, creating a distinctive and often harsh coastal environment.
