Guy Macdonald Posted July 18, 2017 Author Share Posted July 18, 2017 These were absolutely collected at Filey Beach, UK. Along the base of the coast wall, each were overturned, inspected and if I could identify one as a fossil or suspect one then I'd take a good look. Sorry for the lack of info other than location I'm trying to learn stuff. 19 minutes ago, Kane said: Where is this beach? This is along the same coast as the famed Whitby beach for it's fossils. Filey still has good fossils though many large ammonites have been found there and even large plesiosaur remains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have yet to explore the biggest coastal cliffs yet the next time I go, good luck hunting:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
