West Bay, Studland, Chesil and Kimmeridge: what to expect and when dogs are welcome.
Golden Cap, the Purbeck ridge and Kimmeridge: the walks worth making the trip for.
The same band of rock formed both of them. A circular bay at one end, a collapsed arch at the other, a mile of coast path in between.

A castle, a fort that gave up far too easily, and two ferries doing the job a bridge never got round to.
A moor that nearly lost its own ponies to extinction, a bridge the Devil is said to have built, and the highest sea cliff in England at the end of it.
A Bronze Age shipwreck, four hundred Moroccan gold coins, and a fort that held out five months in the same year and against the same siege that ended Cornwall's Pendennis Castle.

A waterfall named twice over in a language nobody's spoken here for a thousand years, a steamer that once hauled lead ore, and the walk where Wordsworth found his daffodils.
A restored Victorian steam yacht, a fell scarred with old copper workings, and two men, a critic and a speed record breaker, buried in the same small churchyard above the water.
