Dear Colleagues,
I am struggling to read the place name on a label (photo enclosed). Could some
of you take a look please and see if you recognise what is says?
We can only do better than the last person who transcribed this. They read
'jaws of Ichthyosaurus communis Lower Lias' and transcribed it as 'jaws of
Achthiasarus carnivorius, Lower Lias'. They didn't even guess at the place
name.
The only clues are its an ichthyosaur and the sediment isn't typical of the
areas around Lyme Regis or Whitby.
Any responses will greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Nigel.
