Gateway to the Jurassic Coast
News
Seaton Town Council has commissioned and funded a short film showcasing all that Seaton has to offer. The aim is to update this from time to time and to use it to assist with the promotion of Seaton as a tourist destination.
The outstanding result, produced by Metrix Productions, had its first showing at the Seaton Outdoor Cinema in September. Those who were not able to attend this event can now view it here and on the town council’s website. Enjoy 😊
Huge thanks to the very talented George Merritt for all his hard work on this.
Great video and although I know that the wetlands are a great feature, I think that a few shots of the town streets especially up by the gateway as its a pretty street would be good and the beach front and harbour. Although I imagine they will be added to later. Love the logo.
Missing the skate park that recently had thousands spent on it and the actual town centre?
Another great film George Really well done.
Seaton tramway is clearly visible at 1:11. But I'm puzzled by the shot at 1:05; it looks like it has got something like the Seaton branch of the DLR in its background!.
Thank you for making this film ,Seaton has so much to offer. 😃
Lovely-it always bemuses me that Seaton town & Axmouth parish don’t do things like this together- the harbour’s a huge draw and never seems to feature - it would make it complete in my eyes- it’s a great video though 10/10!

So the wetlands, the sea, and not a lot else. Nothing about cricket club, tennis, bowls, yatch club. Nothing about the skatepark that's just had thousands spent on it and also the gym not that many years ago too considering ? Nothing showing things like Seaton Majorettes who perform in the towns own carnival which hasn't been shown either. Nothing about the grizzly?
Beautiful scenes, relaxing music. I feel it lacks vibrancy tho.

Where are the hard hats that both men should be wearing?
Seaton Town Council provides two play parks in the town – at Elizabeth Road and the Underfleet, adjacent to the skate park, which are enjoyed by residents and visitors alike. Whilst the vast majority of users treat this space respectfully, there are a minority who not only leave behind litter, including broken glass, but also cause wilful damage to the fences and area around the park.
Unfortunately, this is happening on an increasingly frequent basis and in the last 3 weeks a day of the Town Maintenance Officer’s time has been taken up each week cleaning the detritus and repairing the damage to the site, so that it can be safely used by others. Not the best use of #TeamSeaton resources ☹
Feel free to party, picnic and enjoy the park, but please take your rubbish home with you and do not damage the site, leaving it safe for others and enabling Team Seaton to focus time and efforts on other priorities. The local police have been informed.
I have personally cleaned up the rubbish here before. It is local young adults/adolescents. What we need are solutions. A bin close to the area might help as they clearly can’t be bothered to walk the short distance to the one located at the entrance to the skate park.
Disgusting
Ironic thing is that's on top of a old dump years ago
A Service of Remembrance - open to everyone - will take place at Seaton Methodist Church on Sunday 31st October at 3pm.
During the pandemic some bereaved families did not have the opportunity to say goodbye in the way they would have wanted. The Service will be multi denominational and an opportunity for anyone who wishes to remember and say farewell.
During the Service there will be an opportunity to place a memorial heart on the Remembrance Tree which will be planted in Seaton Cemetery at a later date. Daffodil bulbs will be available to take home for planting in remembrance of loved ones. If anyone would like their loved one's name to be read out, then please bring this on the day.
That is so lovely for the bereaved relatives ❤. Such a kind thing for all .
Thank you 💕
What a lovely idea 💕
Some of Seaton’s most exciting and talented artists are working with Seaton Town Council and Promote Seaton in the next stage of the Seaton Art Trail.
The project already showcases work from local artists Alison Foxcroft, Barry Seaforth, Bob Bradshaw, Ian Flynn, Mike Jackson & Trudi Day and the second stage welcomes the work of Anna Andrews, Carolyn King, John Buckley & Kevin Rye.
It is anticipated that more phases will follow as the Art Trail develops and artists are encouraged to join this project, which is intended to celebrate our wonderful town and coastline and the many creative individuals from Seaton and the wider area that find inspiration here.
Anyone looking to get involved should contact: seatonarttrail@hotmail.com
Thank you Andrew Gwyn Davies for all your hard work in curating the Seaton Art Trail, to all the talented artists - who have provided their work to feature in it, to EDDC and other landowners who have provided the ‘canvases’ and to the Town Maintenance Officer who has hung the gallery so far. More to come…..#teamseaton #yourcommunity #seatonartrail #seatonwhereeveryoneswelcome
Loving seeing these fabulous art works appearing...they really brighten up our lovely town!
Looks amazing, would you be able to put some artwork on the building of the sorting office? to make Queen Street look better OR free standing signs in front. x
I love Carol King! So whimsical and observant
Brilliant work by everyone!!
