Rodwell Trail Bridge Over Newstead Road

Highlight • Cycleway

Dripping Well

Highlight • Natural Monument

The ‘dripping well’ is a petrifying well; twigs, leaves and artifacts caught on the rock face become coated with tufa deposited as calcium carbonate-rich groundwater is exposed to the atmosphere.

Flat cycle way out to Portland which is not flat. Shared with pedestrians. Subject to pretty strong cross winds (right on the coast).
Stop off at the RSPB site (with shop) and Taste Cafe for eats and enjoy the views from Chesil Beach. Nice videos of bird life to watch and you can take a look at some in real life too. Some excited birders today ;looking for White Eagle aka Sea Eagle seen recently (Apri; 2022) but you will be lucky to see one of those!
