Hi, I found this down on the beach at Walton on the Naze (UK) the other day - not entirely sure what it is, or even whether it's actually a fossil or not - but thought I'd ask if anyone else has any other insight? It appears to be pyritised, but other than that, I don't really have any clues as to what it could be.

I was wondering if it would be possible and what the benefits might be to form a fossil hunting group here in the panhandle? It might help us to get a better idea of what was actually here. I only know of a few papers and some book mentions that include the panhandle and most are from the 30's t0 50's and are mostly shells. We'd need a real paleontologist also.

Hi wonder if anyone can shed any light on what if anything these could be please? Found in September at Walton on the Naze in Essex, England. We spent the afternoon walking along the London Clay cliffs. Lots of fossilised wood and branches but we also found something that resembles a hip bone?? I've attempted some shots with the phone of our finds

I had did some research trying to find places local to go to and found this info: http://treasuresites.com/Members/fossil.htm and here is my local info from 1999: CAMP CREEK/SANDY CREEK -- (N30° 49.54¢ W86° 04.41) is a Miocene age site, where shark's teeth, camel, three-toed horse, alligator, and turtle fossils can readily be found by wading the streams or snorkeling the deeper stretches. The site is accessed in Walton County (N. Florida), where CR 183B crosses Sandy Creek. Camp Creek is just West of the Sandy Creek crossing. Padgett Road, North of the CR 183B crossing on the East Side of 183B, also crosses Sandy Creek in two places. If you go S. on CR183B and turn right on CR 183A, you will cross a small section of Camp Creek. A wade or hike upstream will lead to deeper water. I have gone to the only access, 183b , three different times and the site is no longer productive. I even walked 1/3 of a mile up the creek with no luck. I guess it time to hit some of the local "shell" sites.
