Fossils
Lyme Regis is home not only to spectacular fossils, but also to many great collectors. The collectors find not only the more common ammonites and belemnites, but also ichthyosaurs, plesiosaurs, and other dinosaurs. The collectors in the marquee will have on sale a wide selection of fossils, and will be happy to tell you all about them. Some of the collectors are also skilled in fossil preparation, so if you've found a mucky lump that contains a gem they offer cleaning and preparation.
