Electrifying Lyme Regis Fossils & Mary Anning Rocks

- Here is the electrifying moment I released a fossil from a Jurassic rock. This is done in much the same way as Mary Anning would have, many moons ago. Follow us on a fossil walk on the day Mary Anning’s statue is arriving at Lyme Regis. Evie Swire had asked her mum(Anya), after doing some fossil hunting, about why at that time 4 years ago, there was no statue for Mary Anning. Anya and Evie worked hard with their project Mary Anning Rocks, along with the team and the "Anning Army " of supporters. I am proud to be a Trustee of Mary Anning Rocks! So see the film of Mary Anning’s statue arriving in the town of Lyme Regis. This video runs right on to the point of the statue`s unveiling- on the 21st May 2022. The statue of Mary Anning is unveiled by Professor Alice Roberts. You can see young Evie to the right of the Mary Anning statue in my film, being beckoned to come forward by Professor Alice Roberts. Evie seemed a little shy of the cameras on the big day. Rightly so, as Evie has been in countless meetings and has been in many many photos all to do with Mary Anning Rocks . She has coped so well being in the spotlight for so long , well done Evie ! Remember to stay away from the dangerous cliffs when looking for fossils. The cliffs are dangerous and liable to fall suddenly and without warning! See our guided fossil walks along Jurassic Coast. You need safety glasses and sturdy gloves for hammering the right little rocks-that split like slate. You must see the current Lyme Regis tide tables to go out fossil collecting at low tide. www.lymeregisfo... We get booked up far in advance for these fossilwalks#maryanning#fossilhunter#Mary Anning
I’m so glad Mary Anning is finally being recognised for her amazing contribution to palaeontology, I saw her statue on Saturday and it’s really beautiful. I love how it overlooks where she would have walked. I think she would be so very proud, as she should be💖❤️
Thank You- excellent comments
Beautiful memorial 😍 Mary lived to be honoured in this beautiful and important place for her. Congratulations on the idea and best regards from PL 👋
Thanks 🙏 very much all the best from the Jurassic Coast. The place for her is beautiful and it’s important that the statue is in Lyme Regis 💫🙌
I am getting a goose flesh seeing Mary Anning back in Lyme...such a fantastic art work!
One day you can stand next to the statue of Mary Anning and see the views to Golden Cap
What a wonderful video. That’s a very nice tribute. I’ll bet she wasn’t expecting folks would build a memorial statue of her this many years later. Beautifully done. Thanks for sharing. ❤
It was such a great time to enjoy when we were doing all that work. Thanks 🙏 for your comments and for watching.
Wonderful video and can't wait to be back visiting to see her so perfectly placed!🎉🌊🌞🌞
Perfectly placed is just the right description for the statue ! What an amazing vista for Mary Anning’s statue . Your really going to like visiting it when your back 🙌💫. Thanks for your comments as always.
That was great to see!

Amazing video my friend. Excellent finds today out there. Always enjoy the jurassic coast. Beautiful statue, that was a cool experience!
Thanks 🙏 very much indeed. I am glad you enjoyed that film 🎞 of a good day of little finds . The statue is lovely to stand by with the sea views .
Good to see the preparations for the statue and I am sure Mary would have appreciated the ammonite fossils you found in the early part of the video. Glad to see the weather improved.
Thanks 🙏 very much Mike you will enjoy seeing the statue ! It’s a wonderful piece of art with great views as well . The weather very definitely improved, that was good the sun came back out
Marvellous, Brandon. Can't wait to see her in person.
Thanks 🙏 very much Phil ! Just wait until the day you get to stand right next to the Mary Anning Statue! The views where the statue is situated are phenomenal. The Golden Cap cliffs shine away in the background, then you get to head out fossil collecting at low tide. Denise Dutton has created a magical piece of art work

Brilliant video Brandon ,and getting Prof Alice Roberts to unveil the statue .Do you mind if I share it
Thanks 🙏 very much for sharing ! I spent 4 years with Anya and Evie working on this project . Getting a statue for Mary Anning in Lyme Regis . I learnt such a lot from them, on what it takes to be strong, they faced so many set backs at Mary Anning Rocks! I am very glad you enjoyed this particular video and thanks for sharing .
It’s believed that she died of breast cancer 🥺
She was taking laudanum to quell the pain of breast cancer. The opium in it did for her , such a sad ending for a strong 💪 lady
