So today I went on my first ever fossil hunting trip, to an abandoned quarry called Hope Quarry near Castleton in Derbyshire, UK. I had no idea whether I would actually find anything or not, but I did find a few things of interest, and the quarry is huge, so in one day I only explored a small part of it. Here are some pictures of the quarry itself, and some of the fossils I found. I would recommend this place, as I am sure there are some fantastic fossils in there just waiting to be found, and I'll be heading back as soon as I can. It is so addictive, I could have stayed there all day and all
