Very narrow long middle digit, i think Dromeaosaur,  Y in the link has the long middle digit

 

Love that dromaeosaur foot. Dromaeosaurids are one of my favorite dinosaur families!

Loving this thread, those are some amazing fossils you've collected

Just to know, where did you collect those fossils? How difficult is it to access the site?

I believe it's Hastings. I've never been there, but I gather that access isn't so much of a problem as actually finding the stuff, which requires some dedication.

Hi Christian sorry for the delay in answering.  I search Hastings and Bexhill on the long tides of the beach. There is easy access for Bexhill, but beware the falling cliffs of heavy sandstones at the Hastings section. This is most easily accessible at the pett level eastern end.

 

Here's a view i took a couple of weeks ago of the Bexhill beach.

 

 

 

A couple of nice footprints i came across that same morning, the larger one Iguanodontid.Size 11 boot for comparison.  Orientation/direction are arrowed.
