Beer and Branscombe
Previous Beer and Branscombe District wards combined with part of the previous Seaton District ward. New part is called Beer Road.
Properties moved from Seaton to the Beer Road register:
Alleyn Court
Beer Hill
Part of Beer Road (53 properties)
Part of Castle Hill (10 properties)
Durley Road
Part of Fremington Road (18 properties)
Highcliffe Close
Highcliffe Crescent
Part of Marlpit Lane (19 properties)
Previous Beer Road
Paddock Close
Wessiters
West Acres
Westcliffe Terrace
This means that western Seaton will actually be considered an adjunct to Beer and Branscombe and will NOT be represented by “Seaton” councillors and people on the same road will have different councillors depending on which part of the road they live on! And those councillors for western Seaton will have far more voters in Beer and Branscombe!
Madness …
Why have we been disenfranchised? I live 200 yards from the Seaton polling station but would have to take the bus to Beer and back which is not practical. Will I also be unable to vote in national elections?
