The Archive link to People is now live, with snippets about Van Allen, a well-known local figure from the 1920s to the 1950s who like many others in the town tried his hand at a variety of varied ventures; and about Lady Abbot Anderson, less well-known perhaps but very involved in the various societies active in mid-20th Century Lyme Regis. Little Madeira on Marine Parade was built for her and her husband.
A recent addition to Buildings and Streets are some interesting notes on one of the many Caddy houses in Lyme, The Haven, 15 Woodmead Road, highlighting its distinctive features.
