Geograph - photograph every grid square

Major coastal protection works have been carried out at Lyme Regis over the last 25 years and part of this was importing thousands of tonnes of pebbles to raise the level of the town beach, helping to protect the buildings along Marine Parade. During this phase of the work the opportunity was taken to enhance the beach at the Cobb end of the Parade with sand imported from France. Beyond the groin, centre left in the photograph, you can see the raised area of shingle which stretches as far as the massive stone wall at the Lym River outfall.
