- This category leads to websites for localites as far south as the penisula of Portland, which since April 2019 has been part of the unitary authority of Dorset Council.
- Previously Portland had shared a Borough, a local government district, with Weymouth.
- Before April 2019, Purbeck District was also a local government district representing the area east and south of Poole.
- There is no parish of Purbeck so websites for these localities remain grouped together in the Isle of Purbeck category.
- Both these boroughs are in the UK Parliament constituency of South Dorset.
- Much of the East, North and West Districts of Dorset coincided with electoral constituencies.
- One exception is the Mid Dorset and North Poole, and localities not included
- in charters elsewhere for that constituency may be listed in this category.
