„Sunkissed Cobb at Lyme Regis“

from the gallery of Chris Frost
Description:

On a stunning November morning at Lyme Regis in Dorset, the Cobb is illuminated by the sun's early rays. A man made construction has protected the small harbour and served as a refuge here since at least 1313. The earliest known drawing, made in 1539, shows a basic shape similar to the present construction which was built after the westerly gales breached the breakwater in 1824. There have been additions since that date but the major part of the Cobb dates from then.
