After a disappointingly dull afternoon in Lyme Regis, I was just about to traipse home when the sun suddenly came through the clouds and illuminated the golden sandstone of the cliffs by Stonebarrow Hill and all along the Jurassic Coast towards Burton Bradstock.
This view won’t be repeated again, since the beach was remodelled a few years afterwards, so all the wooden groynes have gone and the shingle beach is much higher.
