Why fire risk in Weymouth is what it is
Weymouth is Dorset’s third-largest town and a classic seaside resort, and its defining feature for fire safety is the Esplanade — a long, continuous arc of Georgian terraces, built between 1770 and 1855, that have since been converted into apartments, shops, hotels and guest houses. Converted period terraces and a dense stock of guest houses, B&Bs and small hotels around the beach, harbour and marina put two issues front and centre: how a Georgian building has been compartmented when it was split into flats or rooms, and the sleeping risk that comes with paying-guest accommodation. A guest house or B&B run as a business is a non-domestic premises under the Fire Safety Order and needs a fire risk assessment in its own right.
