An appeal has been refused to grant permission for residential development of 26 dwellings on the land at Priory Gardens. But what should this bit of land be used for? One suggestion is to return the land to a community orchard, as these ancient hemp drying lands were orchards connected to the Priory in times of old or maybe they should revert to allotments what do you think?
It was historically always called Priory Lane allotments until the developer coined the site ""Priory Gardens"", I guess to give it a twee suburban feel and not somewhere to grow veg. Long may Bridport stay ""green""!
