    UK Dino Material?

    Hello, What do these two pieces look like? Are they dino material? Hastings subgroup,, Wealden of Sussex, UK. 1. Vertebra. Doesn't seem theropod to me at a glance. 2. "Theropod Foot Cast" is how it was identified. Personally I just see a suggestively-shaped rock.
  2. I am an absolute amateur when it comes to this so do forgive me if I'm just posting photos of another rock! Found Worthing, West Sussex on the beach and the rock is flint I believe so usually I'd just be finding old echinocorys or the like around here. It's fairly large, 6 inches across overall and does seem to have some lighter patches on it that aren't flint I don't think? making me assume it might not just be a rock that's tricked me into lugging it home for a closer look again (I'm the bane of my own existence). Thank you so much for any help you can give with this one and my sincere apologies if I've been mistaken, but that's how I learn, right?!

    Bracklesham Bay Mystery ?Seed/Fruit

    Hello Everyone, I went to Bracklesham Bay for the first time yesterday and despite the sand found several ray plates, shark teeth and gastropods but this find stood out. I'm not sure what it is but I'm hoping it might be a seed or fruit. I know that Nipa fruit are occasionally found there. Each box is 5mm. Hopefully someone can let me know what it is. Thank you, Benton

    Flint Fossil?

    Hi All, I was hoping someone could help with identifying what this formation is within this flint I cracked while flint knapping earlier this week. The formation looks very organic and even plant like however I know that mineral deposits and other geological formations can seem like fossil material to the untrained eye, and my eye isn't very trained in this! The flint used was taken from a beach in Littlehampton, Sussex, UK. This flint is of Cretaceous age if that's useful at all. If you could add your input on whether this is a fossil or a geological feature and what it is exactly that would be great. Thank you all for your help
  5. Hi everyone Newbie here from Sussex in the UK I love beachcombing and I am always looking for fossils although I have never found one. But today I found this unusual imprint on a stone on a pebble beach in Bexhil on sea in East Sussex, UK Any ideas what it could be? Thank you so much Tasza
  6. Hi all, newbie here. This is my collection of marine fossils from the South Downs (West Sussex), Abbey Wood, and Lyme Regis (plus a couple of bought pieces). I hope you enjoy

  10. Hey folks, Found this fossilised tooth straight from the surf at Hove Beach in Brighton, Sussex UK. Assuming it's a horse tooth? Any better ideas? Also, any clue on age? It's my first ever find, so I have no idea what I'm looking at... tooth.mp4

    Fossilised Bones or Just Stones!!??

    Hi I am based in West Sussex UK and have been doing a bit of weeding in my garden during lock-down. I keep coming across stones that look to me like fossilised bones. I could be wrong though!! Maybe you can help please??

    Shark tooth ID

    Hello, My 7 yr old son has started to really get into fossil hunting and we found the following tooth at Bracklesham Bay on Sunday. I'm guessing it's a shark's tooth but does anyone know what breed? (Hoping I've done the photos right, bit of a flimsy tape measure) Front, back and side Thank you x
  14. Natalie and I are planning our holiday to the UK, We are planning to reside from saturday 20 july to 24 july on the isle of Wight were we went last year. And from the 25th until the 28th we are planning to do either the coast of Sussex or Dorset. This is where the advise of the TFF members come in, what would you advise us to visit, either Dorset or Sussex. Of course if any member is free on one of those dates and is willing to guide us around this would be even better. We also take a bunch of Belgian fossils along for possible trades. (we are especially interested in cephalopods and marine reptiles/dinosaurs ) Cheers Kevin and Natalie

    Help ID please

    Found on a river bed in Sussex, south coast of England. No idea what it is. Any ideas ? Thanks
  16. Picked this up on the beach today. I'm still a noob, but having lived in East Sussex for a few months I've become pretty adept at identifying our local fossils (if it isn't a sea urchin, it's a sponge), but this new thing has me stumped! Initially I thought it was some kind of coral, then on further inspection I thought maybe the top part of an ammonite (or mollusc) shell. Now I'm coming back round to thinking it might be an echinoid, but I can't explain the strut-like structures (surely not spines!?). The Details This was found on the beach near Rottingdean, East Sussex, UK. That means it is likely late Cretaceous (NB: worth noting that I have been told a good deal of the pebbles on the beach have been imported, and the local flint is typically a dark black-grey, so while I assume that most finds are cretaceous this could potentially be from... anywhere) The area is a couple of miles west of Peacehaven, home to several giant Parapuzosia ammonites, and a much richer seam of google hits / background information Photo #1 Photo #02 Photo #03 Right hand side (note triangular markings): Photo #04 Left hand side - good view of the extremely fine strut like structures Finally, if anyone has any thoughts on splitting/ extraction / prep, they would also be gratefully received!
  17. Hello all! I recently moved into a fossil rich area and have found myself coming home from beach walks with arm-fulls of interesting rocks. I am still very new to this! Most of my finds have been echinoids and sponges (sometimes both in the same rock!). However this guy, while obviously an urchin, is still somewhat of a puzzle. The Details This was found on the beach near Saltdean, East Sussex, UK. That means it is likely late Cretaceous. The area is a couple of miles west of Peacehaven, home to several giant Parapuzosia ammonites, and a much richer seam of google hits / background information I found the fossil in a large chunk of chalk (photo #3). This is my first time extracting and cleaning a fossil. I mainly used a dental pic, tootbrush, water and a little distilled vinegar. The echinoid is about 5cm in diameter There are two features I would appreciate your expertise in identifying: The pale whorl of scales, which to my eye doesn't follow the natural shape / contours of the echinoid The small fin-like feature most clearly seen in photo #2 Thanks in advance! Photo #01 Photo #02 Photo #03
  18. Hi everyone, I need some help identifying something I found yesterday when I went through my newly acquired fossil matrix. Some information on the matrix, it came from the Hastings Bone beds, Weald Clay, Wealden of Bexhill, Wealden Supergroup, Bexhill, Sussex, UK (Cretaceous, Valanginian, 135 million years old) To me when I found it, it looked like skin, not like the crocodile scutes I am familiar with , but really more like skin. But since I am not really an expert on the matter is doesn't really matter what I think it might look like. I do know dinosaur fossils are common there and I do believe skin has been found on that location before (at least footprints with scale impressions) Does anyone have a clue on what it might be? Skin (reptillian, dinosaurian, pterosaur, shark, fish)? Skull plate of a fish? a croc scute? a mouthpart of a fish? Something entirely else? Thank you in advance, and I am very eager to hear what you guys think about it, no matter the outcome, I am very excited to find out what it is.
  19. This is a great fossil forum. A wealth of information. Lots to educate the passionate collector. I want to share a few more of my latest finds with members of this fossil forum. I hope you all enjoy the pics. These are some of my best discoveries made in my Hastings Wealden bonebed collection this past week. First off is this lovely Dromaeosaurid tooth. It took me a few hours, but I managed to prep out both sides. My best find in a while.
