About

Southwell & Weston is a coastal area on the Isle of Portland in Dorset, known for its rugged limestone cliffs and proximity to the English Channel. The area includes the villages of Southwell and Weston, which are connected by quiet lanes and footpaths. The landscape is shaped by quarrying history, with remnants of old stone workings blending into the natural surroundings. Coastal walks offer views of the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The area has a mix of residential properties and open spaces, with a small community feel. Local amenities include a primary school, a village hall, and a few shops. The nearby Chesil Beach and Portland Bill lighthouse are popular spots for visitors. Southwell & Weston retains a quiet, rural character, with farming and fishing playing a role in the local economy.
