Literary places in Lyme Regis

The French Lieutenant's Woman

John Fowles

Fowles's Lyme Regis is a small Dorset seaside town in 1867, where a gentleman's certainties come apart on a stone breakwater. The map holds the Cobb and the town, runs west into the tangled wilderness of the Undercliff, then follows the story inland to Exeter and up to London.
