A good many years ago I used to deliver to catering establishments in Dorset and Devon amongst other places. The first time I went to Bridport a traffic warden came rushing along and asked me to wait a few minutes whilst she got all the legally cars shifted so I could park parallel to the kerb and in Bideford the police used to close the road so I could park as it was too narrow for cars to pass.In those days commonsense prevailed and the attitude was, if you can’t deliver we go hungry.
years ago I ran into Westbay Bridport with small ships but never found a problem with parking them …
