South Street, BRIDPORT, DT6 3PD

Viewed in August 2017. The notice on the wall in the background shows THIS CAR PARK IS FOR THE USERS OF THE BRIDPORT DAY CENTRE ONLY. The car park is on the south side of Fishermans Arms Day Centre https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5873350 which had closed down at the July 2018 date of this https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5851440 photo.

On the east side of South Street.

The Fisherman's Arms is a local authority run day centre for people with learning disabilities. It was a pub, hence the name.

Viewed in August 2017. The name sign on the left shows that the day centre is part of Dorset County Council's Social Services Directorate. This later photo https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5851440 taken in July 2018 shows that the day centre has closed down. The Closed Pubs website records that the building was erected in the 1930s as the Fishermans Arms pub. Planning permission for change of use was granted to Palmers Brewery in January 1998.

The Fishermans Arms is a former public house in South Street. Planning permission for change of use was granted to Palmers Brewery in January 1998 and it was then used as a County Council day centre for people with learning disabilities until budget cuts saw its closure last year. The tiled sign by the door, a relic from its Pub days, has been removed (see Image ). There was talk of the site being redeveloped as a Social Services centre for adult services by 2019, but the County Council is becoming a unitary authority next year and budget cuts continue, so I wouldn't bet on it.

On the corner of South Street and Doctor Roberts Close. The substation identifier is SOUTH STREET 251350.

South Street recycling centre past the black gates. The restricted access from South Street creates traffic chaos at times, however discussions about alternative sites for the recycling facility seem to be interminable. Immediately behind the wooden gates is the parking used by local authority transport for the disabled, there being training facilities for the disabled nearby, for example the Fisherman's Arms day centre (the building on the left),Flood Lane and the Mountjoy School further down the road.
