LYME REGIS, DORSET

Lyme Regis is a coastal town in West Dorset, England

Lyme Regis traces its origins back as far as the 8th century when monks distilled salt water from the sea. In the 13th century it developed into one of the major British ports although the harbour is tiny by modern standards.

Lyme is famous for the fossils found in the cliffs, which are part of the Jurassic Coast (also known as the Heritage Coast), a World Heritage Site. Many of the earliest discoveries of dinosaur and other prehistoric reptile remains were in the area surrounding Lyme Regis.

Designated an area of outstanding natural beauty, Lyme Regis is now better known for its dramatic setting, genial climate, crafts, outstanding walks, literary links and romantic charm.
