    The               Cobb               was               of               great               economic               importance               to               Lyme               as               it               created               a               breakwater               point               that               protected               the               city               from               storms.

    With               the               construction               of               the               Cobb,               Lyme               became               a               major               port               and               place               of               shipbuilding.
                   The               Cobb,               however,               did               suffer               severe               storm               damage               that               may               have               severely               damaged               (and               possibly               removed)               areas               of               the               town,               especially               near               where               the               River               Lim               enters               the               sea               (www.lymregistourism.co.uk).

    During               the               16th               century,               the               harbour               and               town               itself               were               repaired.

    This               may               (on               the               writer's               speculation)               be               related               to               the               fact               that               in               1591,               Queen               Elizabeth               I               confirmed               the               Charter               issued               by               King               Edward               I               more               than               300               years               earlier.

    Regardless,               the               town               has               a               distinct               Elizabethan               tradition               stemming               from               this               time.

    It               was               when               the               village               was               revived               that               a               wool               and               linen               industry               also               emerged,               with               weavers               setting               up               cottage               industries               in               their               homes.
                   The               17th               century               saw               rebellion               in               Lyme               Regis               when,               in               1644,               during               the               English               Civil               War,               Prince               Maurice               led               the               Royalists               an               eight               week               siege               against               the               Parlimentarian               townspeople.

    In               1685,               Lyme               housed               the               landing               point               for               the               Duke               of               Monmouth               where               he               commenced               what               would               be               known               as               the               Monmouth               Rebellion               (Wikipedia,               Lyme               Regis).
                   The               early               1700s               saw               a               decline               in               Lyme's               economic               status,               but               was               later               rectified               when               local               Thomas               Hollis               created               the               image               of               Lyme               as               a               "health               and               holiday               resort,"               (www.lymeregistourism.co.uk).

    Many               of               the               Georgian               and               Victorian               styled               homes               were               built               during               this               time               period               to               accommodate               the               tourists               who               would               come               to               visit.

    This               saw               the               expansion               of               the               town               in               a               physical               sense               as               the               new               homes               and               hotels               took               up               quite               a               bit               of               space.
                   The               first               walking               paths               were               designed               at               this               time               by               Hollis,               including               the               Marine               Parade               which               extends               into               Cobb               hamlet.

    The               popularity               of               this               walking               path               would               affect               the               layout               of               the               town,               as               many               seafront               buildings               were               constructed               along               this               path               (www.lymeregistourism.co.uk).

    1804               brought               the               great               fire               of               Lyme               Regis               and               the               destruction               that               accompanied               it.

    More               than               50               houses               burned               in               this               fire,               and               the               town's               historic               center               was               irreparably               altered,               with               the               meat               market               and               Customs               House               completely               destroyed.

    Jane               Austen,               who               would               later               write               about               Lyme               in               her               novels,               was               in               the               town               at               the               time               of               the               fire,               and               would               later               reference               the               event               in               letters               to               her               sister.
                   The               19th               century               saw               further               damage               to               Lyme,               however,               when               in               November               of               1824               a               storm               his               the               town               that               required               the               rebuilding               of               the               Cobb.

    This               is               the               general               shape               the               Cobb               takes               today.

    Perhaps               Lyme's               greatest               claim               to               fame               also               emerged               in               the               19th               century.

    Fossil               hunting               became               the               fashion               in               the               1800s               and               several               major               discoveries               were               made               in               Lyme               Regis.

    Mary               Anning               earned               a               reputation               for               her               discoveries               of               fossils               in               Lyme               when,               in               1811               -               at               the               age               of               12               -               she               discovered               the               first               complete               skeleton               of               an               ichthyosaur.

                   Prior               to               1756               the               Cobb               was               an               artificial               island               at               high               tide,               creating               the               speculation               of               why               the               harbour               is               such               a               striking               distance               from               the               old               town               (www.soton.ac.uk/~Lyme-Regis-Town.htm).


                   The               Cobb               is               an               integral               part               of               the               history               of               Lyme               Regis,               and               the               key               to               the               town's               growth               and               success.

    The               need               for               the               harbour               created               by               the               Cobb               first               emerged               when               trade               between               England               and               France,               particularly               the               Bordeaux,               increased               as               a               result               of               the               marriage               of               Henry               II               to               Eleanor               of               Aquitaine               in               the               mid-twelfth               century.

    The               proximity               of               Lyme               to               Bordeaux               (and               the               closing               of               the               Axmouth               harbour)               greatly               simplified               the               trade               routes               (www.soton.ac.uk/~Lyme-Regis-Town.htm).

    The               Cobb,               however,               has               withstood               many               storms               in               its               current               form               in               nearly               200               years,               with               Lyme               Regis               surviving               behind               it.
