Abbotsbury
Abbotsbury is a parish in Dorset. It is in the West Dorset district and sits about 1 mile inland from the English Channel coast. It has a population of 481. Inside the parish is a portion of Chesil Beach which is an 18 mile barrier beach. It is part of the Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage Site. Abbotsbury is in the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
The village is known for its swannery, which is the only managed colony of nesting mute swans in the world. It is also home to the subtropical gardens which opened in 1765. The remnants of Abbotsbury Castle are also above the village, and it was the front line of defence from invasion in its day.
Other buildings in the village include St. Catherine's Chapel, which is a 14th-century pilgrimage chapel used by the monks of the abbey. It is built from stone, including the roof and ceiling. It is a Grade I listed building. The Church of St. Nicholas is also a Grade I listed building and dates back to the 14th century.
