Update 1

Welcome to the new and improved Weymouth City! There have been major changes and updating across the city. In Chapter 2 we will finish in Weymouth City and see many of the small cities, towns, natural and man made wonders Leeonia has to offer.

In today's entry we will look at the main historical area of the city center, The Medieval Quarter and the Inner City Regeneration Project which will restore some older housing projects and completely redo some areas of the city.

King Bluett Castle, (completed in 1057AD), where the castle's keep stood before it was burnt down by the English in 1165. The building extended to the more brown coloured gate, this was the Northern Gate.

Milis Square, directly opposite the Western Gate of the castle, is the largest and oldest street market area in Leeonia. Every Saturday and Sunday hundreds of stalls are set up in the square and around the surrounding streets, here you can get everything from a good ol' Irish stew to hand made silk carpets from India. On an early weekday morning like this, not much goes on.

Caoile Street, one of the many little narrow streets in Weymouth, filled with shops, pubs and hotels

Cill Cathair, the oldest existing church in Weymouth. The church has a square located in the back that is connected to Dolan's Pub, where the communion wine has been fermented ever since 1049AD.

And now to see some modern re-developments currently undergo in Weymouth...

Lake Front Housing Projects, many housing developments after the Leeonian Freedom Movement (1910-1911), have dilapidated and eroded with time. The Inner City Regeneration Project (2011-present), a semi government funded project has and plans to demolish the worst effected areas and regenerate areas affected with inner city decline. Some of the worst areas are in South Weymouth. (Coming soon...)
