S1 E6: Fossil hunting

5m | May 12, 2023

Fossil hunting is my jam - what is not to love, a treasure hunt, time outdoors, bashing rocks with hammers, finding beautiful tiny creatures that haven't been touched for millions of years. Better than magic!

Have a listen and go follow @london_mudlark (mostly not fossils - does occasional group mudlarking sessions for charity) and @mikeharrisonfossils (mostly fossils - does private fossil walks) on instagram for more treasure than you could ever dream of!

If you want to see more of my jewellery I am @gildedmagpie on Instagram.

https://ukfossils.co.uk/ is a fount of fossiling knowledge and if you are on the Jurassic coast the Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre is a brilliant one stop shop for all things fossil: https://www.jurassiccoast.org/things-to-do/charmouth-heritage-coast-centre-p3157343, as is the Lyme Regis Museum: https://www.lymeregismuseum.co.uk/

Trilobytes are plentiful in the Upper Gilwern Quarry. See https://uppergilwernquarryhut.co.uk/ for details.

Ad info: We paid for our fossil walk in Lyme Regis and our stay in the Shepherd's hut.
