What Fossils can you find at Lothbeg


(Lothbeg Foreshore) - 2003

Within the Kimmeridge Clay, you can find Ammonites and shells. There is quite a lot of kimmeridge exposed at Lothbeg, but you really need a good scour to clear away the sand. Small patches are often seen. The winter/spring months are the best time to collect here. Reptile remains have also been found in the past, washed up along the shingle and small rocks. Past Lothbeg point, plant remains can be seen on the light coloured sandstones on the foreshore, occasionally whole plants can be found.
