Lyme Regis railway station was the terminus of the Lyme Regis branch line, in the English county of Dorset. Serving the coastal resort town of Lyme Regis, it was sited high above the town centre as a result of the hilly nature of the local area. The line straddled the county boundary so that, although the terminus was in Dorset, most of the line lay in the neighbouring county of Devon.
