What Fossils can you find at White Nothe?


(Looking for fossils at White Nothe) - 2000

From the Chalk, Echinoid's can often be collected by simply picking them up from the foreshore, there is a quite a variety of species, the most common being Holasters. White Nothe is also well known for giant Ammonites which are surprisingly well preserved. Many Brachiopods and Bivalves can also be found along with sea Urchin Spines and Crinoids Peace's.

From the Greensand, rich well preserved brachiopod and bivalve beds give a wide variety of species, Gastropods can also be collected, when the Greensand is freshly exposed on the foreshore, it is as soft as that of the Gault, but exposure to air turns it rock hard. During scouring tides, many very good molluscs can be collected in near perfect condition.
