I walk in the world's great highways,

In the dusty glare and riot,

But my heart is in the byways

That thread across the quiet;

By the wild flowers in the coppice,

There the track like a sleep goes past,

And paven with peace and poppies,

Comes down to the sea at last.

E. G. Buckeridge.

Modern Weymouth is made up of two distinct townships, Weymouth and Melcombe Regis, which were formerly¹ separate boroughs², with their own parliamentary representatives. Of the two Weymouth is probably the older, but Melcombe can be traced well-nigh back to the Conquest; and now, although it is the name of Weymouth that has obtained the prominence³, it is to Melcombe that it is commonly applied⁴. Many visitors to Weymouth never really enter the real, ancient Weymouth, now chiefly concerned in the brewing⁵ of Dorset ale. The pier⁶, town, railway station and residences are all in Melcombe Regis. The local conditions are something more than peculiar⁷. The little River Wey has an estuary⁸ altogether out of proportion to its tiny stream, called the Blackwater. The true original Weymouth stands on the right bank of the estuary at its entrance into Weymouth Bay. Across the mouth of the estuary, leaving a narrow channel only open, stretches a narrow spit of land, on which stands Melcombe. The Blackwater has thus a lake-like character, and its continuation to the sea, the harbour, may be likened to a canal. The local annals of the kingdom can hardly furnish such another instance of jealous rivalry⁹ as the strife
