Marine Bio Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 Hi all, I picked up this conical object (I'm currently reluctant to even commit to 'fossil') from the shore at Port Mulgrave, North Yorkshire. It was loose on the shore so unfortunately no certain stratigraphy either. I'd be happy with any thoughts or ideas of what it could be. Thank you all so much in advance, MarineBio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
