Library Cottage, Lyme Regis

Image: © Bill Harrison Taken: 5 Jul 2016

A real surprise at the beach, a thatched cottage with colour-washed hexagonal slate-hung walls; Grade-II listed: http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-404642-library-cottage-lyme-regis-dorset#.V7IWRSZTGmQ . The 'Marine Circulating Library' was established here in 1839. the gigantic lead rainwater heads are apparently imported from elsewhere.
