Dorset Coast day 22 Mon 14 May 2018

7.15am breakfast then drove to Lyme Regis. Parked in a long stay car park for two pounds all day. (Just like West Beach yesterday.) Walked along the seafront to reach Monmouth Beach. Looked for fossil ammonites amongst the beach pebbles and Yvonne found two good ammonite fragments. Later we found a limestone ledge exposed at low tide with hundreds of fossilized ammonites. Unfortunately the shale under the limestone is causing the shelf to gradually break up. Haddock and chips for me and scallops for Yvonne in a pub for lunch. Visited the Lyme winery and Axminster before dinner at Netherleigh Bed & Breakfast in Cooks Lane.Read more
