The stereoscopic photo of Askers Roadhouse below is actually a glass slide. It was sent in by Derek Barnsley who says “All I know about it is that it was taken on someones family holiday to Wales and the West Country in either 1934 or 1935”.

Have you got any old photos of Bridport and the surrounding area? If so we’d love to see them, contact us…




I can remember some fab Raves here in the 80’s, frequent Police visits, long walks home, then the fire! I was always told it was a favorite with swingers and the like, after all it’s a long way to go to walk your dog!!
goccibus, perhaps wher the term dogging started.
RE: Askers Roadhouse
My grandparents used to own this, they sold just before the fire happened
