I have found huge Ammonites but sadly the big ones don't seem to preserve as one piece unless Pyritised. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbo88 Posted February 11, 2018 Author Share Posted February 11, 2018 Must have been real monsters of the sea in the Jurassic. I need to get back up to Whitby. lol. All my local fossils are plant remains of the carboniferous, although I do have some nice stem specimens and what may possibly be part of a trunk.

Gibbo88 Posted February 12, 2018 Author Share Posted February 12, 2018 One of my best stem finds was on an old slag heap from a mine but as I explore my local area I am finding more and more locations and plants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
