Bridport, Market town in Dorset, England.

Bridport spreads across the River Brit valley with broad streets lined by Georgian buildings and independent shops connecting to West Bay harbor.

The town's rope-making industry, officially documented since 1211, influenced the architecture with extra-wide streets used for drying lengths of rope.

The town maintains active arts venues, including a theatre, cinema, and museum, while hosting regular literary and food festivals throughout the year.

The Tourist Information Centre opens from Monday to Saturday between 10 am and 3 pm, offering guidance about local accommodations and activities.

Palmers Brewery stands as the sole thatched brewery remaining in the United Kingdom, continuing centuries-old brewing traditions in its historic building.
