THE CLIENT
Mary Anning Rocks
This charitable team is on a mission to provide a visual acknowledgement and reminder of local Palaeontologist, Mary Anning. You will find the statue at the junction between Long Entry and Gun Cliff Walk on the Lyme Regis coast front, just a short distance from the town.
The installation of the statue marked the culmination of a four year campaign by the Mary Anning Rocks group which was started by schoolgirl Evie Swire, then aged 11 and her mother, Anya Pearson.
"We see the statue as an inspirational presence in the landscape where she worked, to inspire and show people, young and old, locals and visitors alike, that great things can be achieved from almost impossible circumstances." - Mary Anning Rocks
