More about this scene
Across the inner basin from the quay (right) beside the Cobb Warehouses is the 17th-century North Wall (centre), which protects the harbour from easterly gales. Beyond are Langmoor Gardens and the Bay Private Hotel on Marine Parade. The wooded skyline above the town extends from Rhode Barton and Thistle Hill to Penn Hill and Timber Hill. Vessels in the harbour range from fishing and pleasure boats registered at Weymouth (WH) and Exeter (E) to RAF launch No 1530 (top left). This, and the smaller No 363, were based at Lyme for bombing-range patrols and air-sea rescue purposes.
