Brishen1 Posted August 13, 2019 Author Share Posted August 13, 2019 Thanks @JohnBrewer, I’ve found a bit of Horn corral at the same site but that has all been limestone. Any guess to the species? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnBrewer Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I’m not sure you could get it down to species level. @TqB might know John Map of UK fossil sites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No need to be sorry, I think the whole world knows that an inch is the width of a man´s thumb. In some cases, its a much more handy unit than the ol´ cm or so !!!! But sorry, can not comment on your fossil, but nice find for some gravel, I like it! Franz Bernhard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grandpa Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 What I think I''m seeing are calcite pebbles and an imprint of a pectin shell. But maybe that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
