About Dorchester
Dorchester is a historic market town with its roots in Roman times; however it is most famously associated with Thomas Hardy.With its elegant 18th century houses, broad walks and bustling shopping streets, Dorchester has much to offer the visitor. Its history can be traced back to the Iron Age, like nearby Maiden Castle. The Romans built a town here in AD 43 (Durnovaria) and you can see reminders of Dorchesters Roman past in the County Museum and the Roman Town House. However Dorchester is perhaps better known for its part in the following two events in history.Public DomainIn 1685 Judge Jeffries presided here over the Bloody Assizes following Monmouths rebellion and defeat at the Battle of Sedgemoor. He ordered the hanging of 74 men. The Tolpuddle Martyrs were deported from Dorchester to Australia in 1834 following their attempts to form a trade union.Wednesday is market day in Dorchester, where every street, alley and precinct announces old Rome. (Thomas Hardy, from his novel The Mayor of Casterbridge). Hardy was born in 1840 at Higher Brockhampton, near Dorchester. Later in his life he returned to this part of Dorset and set up home at Max Gate, a house of his own design in the town, and where he died in 1928. Max Gate and the cottage where he was born are open to the public. Various tours of Hardys Country are available see below.Like many towns in this part of Dorset, you have to be fit as the main street rises up a steep hill! The lovely Georgian buildings, to be found mostly off the main street, give the town a very elegant feel. But do not stay just in the town a must when visiting this part of Dorset is a visit to Maiden Castle, the huge and complex Iron Age fort just outside the town. Marvel at the sheer scale of the earthworks built with such primitive tools.And dont forget the beautiful coast Lyme Regis, where The French Lieutenants Woman was filmed, has a lovely harbour and small sandy beach. The towns streets seem to tumble down the steep hill into the sea! West Bay, or as it used to be called, Bridport Harbour, is where the T.V. series Harbour Lights is filmed.
