1991 The old A354 Weymouth to Dorchester Road, highway Redlands, Bincombe, Ridgeway hairpin bend.

As an "incomer" to Weymouth living just off the Dorchester Road that's fascinating.

Nice video, unfortunately it turns out that the council would go on to destroy lovely Bincombe by starting to build a new housing estate.

You can still go round the old hairpin if you go slightly north on Google Street View on the old road. Think the images are dated 2009

[@StuartMorris7]

Yes, I found that too. I'm surprised they haven't updated that section.

@@StuartMorris7 It'll be there until there's some newer 'footage' on Streetview, and I doubt they'll send the camera car up there any time soon. I'm always surprised how quickly the old road has returned to nature now it only has cycle and foot traffic (plus the odd tractor).

[@StuartMorris7]

Yes, but I'm not quite sure what you mean. I took all this footage, @@UniversityOfTurmoil

[@UniversityOfTurmoil]

@@StuartMorris7 I was talking about the Google Streetview images.

Remember this job well and the problems involved.

[@StuartMorris7]

Glad you spotted this Alan. You organised that job, I recall!
