'Portland deserves a great break' - Sir Tim Smit

Steve Harris

Available for over a year

Plans are in place for Portland to get a multi-million-pound tourist attraction backed by the Eden Project. In October BBC Radio Solent reported that 'Jurassica' and 'Memo' had joined forces and with the additional backing of the Eden Project they would work together to bring a biodiversity tourist attraction to the island. It's set to be underground, in the tunnels of Albion Stone's Jordans Mine - and accessed from Bower's Quarry on Portland - and tell the story of how life evolved. Eden Project co-founder and executive chairman, Sir Tim Smit, spoke to Steve Harris on Breakfast in Dorset.
