The Cobb and Lyme Regis harbour The Cobb an old stone pier forming an extensive harbour and believed to date from the time of Edward I. The origin of the name is unknown, but there are records of an ancient feast called the “Cobb Ale Feast”. With a length of 870 feet the curve of the Cobb forms a fine promenade though its upper surface slopes to the sea at an appreciable angle. Its high wall makes it a double promenade and walkers have a choice of shelter or a glorious blow. The eastern section ends with the Victoria Pier, so-called after the Princess Victoria landed here with her mother in 1833. Picturesque buildings on the Cobb include ex headquarters of sailing and powerboat clubs while another houses a Marine Aquarium (open daily). Lyme was busy in former days both with local fishing and trading with distant ports. The Cobb

Langmoor and Lister Gardens The Langmoor and Lister Gardens were created as part of major stabilisation works completed in 2007. The gardens are a quiet and tranquil space, with plenty of winding paths to wander along, and grassed areas and benches to sit with a picnic and enjoy the spectacular views across Lyme Bay. The planting is designed to encourage wildlife. Low shrubs have been planted for cover, with grasses and seed-bearing plants for food. The Woodland Walk provides a shaded pathway through the tall trees and we have recently enhanced the walk with a new route through the woods. We have installed bird feeders, nest boxes, big hotels, bird tables and bat boxes to encourage more wildlife to the area, and information boards highlighting the flora and fauna in the area.

Lyme Regis Brewery Lyme Regis Brewery was founded in 2010 as The Town Mill Brewery. The group of gents who established the brewery here at The Town Mill wanted to create award-winning cask ales right here in Lyme Regis, and to demonstrate the craft of brewing to visitors of the Town Mill. Over the past decade, the brewery crafted a selection of fine ales which were available in cask and bottle throughout the region. The small brewery in the Malthouse at the Town Mill was moved to a larger production facility just outside of Lyme Regis to enable greater production. In late 2014 the brewery was rebranded as Lyme Regis Brewery in an effort to grow the business and make the brand more synonymous with the Jurassic Coast. Lyme Regis Brewery
