Recent Folkestone Fossil Trip

[Flyjack1]

Hi All,

 

Thanks for having me here. Me and my girlfriend have recently discovered an interest in looking for fossils. Luckily for us, we have spent some time in Folkestone, England which we have discovered is pretty full of fossils in the right place.

The below are a couple of finds from one afternoon down at Copt point while we were walking the dog. Any extra information about what we found would be very much appreciated. My uneducated guess is that all are ammonites except for the two specimens at the bottom, which I am completely unsure of. They all came out of a gault clay slump right where the sea meets the cliff. Is the bottom right a bone fragment? Just a rock? Again, any help is appreciated. From research the gault clay and underlying greensand is around 110 myo.   Many thanks, Sam & Ro

You are correct that the top fossils are ammonites. However i can only guess for the bottom two and better photos are needed. I'm thinking left is bivalve/brachiopod? and right is some sort of burrow?

Yes i think you are correct.  More pictures from all sides will improve the odds of ID.

Nice finds! 

Bottom left is a carapace of the crab Notopocorystes stokesii, I think. 

Hello, Sam and Ro, and a very warm welcome to TFF from Morocco.

Hi guys, thanks for the welcome and the quick replies! Attached here is a close up of the bottom right item. I can only post one pic at a time due to the size limit, but will put a couple angles up.
