Portland and Chesil Beach [5]
This view from near the Olympic Rings Image looks over Fortuneswell towards Portland Harbour. The tower of the church of St John is prominent.
The Isle of Portland is a tied island, some 5 miles south of the resort of Weymouth, the southernmost point of the county of Dorset, joined to the mainland by Chesil Beach. The Isle has been inhabited since at least the Mesolithic period. Portland stone, a limestone famous for its use in world architecture is quarried here. Portland Harbour, is one of the largest man-made harbours in the world. Chesil Beach, a barrier beach, runs for 18 miles from West Bay to the Isle of Portland and in places is 50 feet high and 650 feet wide.
