This museum will appeal to children even up to 95 years of age! with an interest in fossils and dinosaurs.

The map room shows you why Lyme Regis is so good for fossils and shows where fossils can be found.

The fossil collection takes up most of the ground floor of the building. There are many spectacular fossils including local Jurassic marine fossils from the largest to the tiniest micro fossil. You will be suprised at the full range of what lived in the Jurassic sea.

There are real Chinese dinosaurs and a 73kg lump of dinosaur dung.

There is a collection of modern shells and skeletons in the animal room which show how present day life evolved and how it is related to the exhibits in the museum.

The Time Gallery is upstairs and shows the vastness of geological time. You can experience a tour which shows how the continents and life have changed with time culminating in the enormous creatures of the Age of the Dinosaurs.
