EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the STEAM Museum of the GWR, we are transported back to August 1936 in Lyme Regis, Dorset. The image captures a picturesque scene where holidaymakers have gathered on the sandy beach, basking in the warm summer sun. Behind them stands the iconic small harbour known as the Cobb, which gained fame through its appearance in Jane Austen's beloved novel "Persuasion". The beach is adorned with charming beach huts that add a splash of color against the backdrop of golden sand and azure waters. Families can be seen enjoying their seaside vacation, building sandcastles and frolicking in the gentle waves. The atmosphere is filled with joy and relaxation as people soak up every moment of their coastal getaway. Boats dotting the harbor create a postcard-worthy sight, gently swaying with each passing wave. They serve as a reminder of Lyme Regis' rich maritime history and its connection to seafaring adventures. This photograph encapsulates an era when life seemed simpler yet full of wonderment. It transports us to a time when holidays were cherished moments spent by tranquil shores, creating memories that would last a lifetime. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in time, we can't help but feel nostalgic for those idyllic days at Lyme Regis Harbour during that blissful summer over eight decades ago.
