The Cobb, Lyme Regis Dorset, England,The lady with the mobile phone gives the images age away!

The top Layer where the majority of the ladies are stood slopes quite steeply to the sea and is quite a sensation when waves are rolling in across Lyme Bay and breaking against the wall,

The first sea defense here was in It was in 1538 it has been destroyed by the sea on a number of occasions but the present sturdy Cobb was reconstructed in 1820 using Portland Stone!

A large view perhaps and I Wish you all a HWW!

Dog Paddle!

Having issues with Microsoft so-called updates, I now have the PC going, next job is to find and reload my images, but some progress has been made.

Therefore, another older image but not as old as the ladies attire would suggest, This is the end of the breakwater wall at Lyme Regis In the County of Dorset on a misty morning, I have no idea why they were dressed this way but it added something to the image!

HWW,,,,,,,,,,,,,, A large view may be rewarding

The weather down here on the Somerset coast remains overcast with very flat light so it's another image from the archives (another from 2009,)
The only customer for the afternoon trip is gull so the boats have been winched high up on the steep shingle beach,
