Fossils on the Isle of Wight’s SW coast
The South West coast of the Island is famed for its fossils. We arranged a work outing to take a look with a local expert. Unfortunately something went wrong and we managed to be in a different place to our expert at the appointed hour. Having driven all that way we figured we might as well take a wander anyway, and Ian managed to discover this footprint, which he believes to have been left by an Iguanodon (I am an Iguanodon Ignoramus I’m afraid, so I will bow to his superior fossil knowledge!). There were more prints, but this one was amazingly defined.
