Hi Wozniak

You run a real risk of picking up an algorithmical Panda penalty by having so much duplicate content across these pages. For websites that truly operate in geographic areas it is perfectly OK to have location pages for each of those places. However you really need to break this down and present interesting pages packed with local information.

This is going to require a bit of work but I would start from a blank template and just write original content or get a good copywriter to do it for you. Mention local landmarks, town history and places of significance. Make it really 'local'. Even include some photos of the town centre and make the URL of the photo eg /abbotsbury-carpet-cleaning.jpg and the alt tag eg "Abbotsbury Carpet Cleaning"

You will not only present a far better user experience but you will not risk any penalty either now or in the future.
