Talk: Recent Finds in Charmouth’s Old Rocks on behalf of West Bay Discovery Centre
Details
West Bay Discovery Centre are delighted to have Phil Davidson joining us from Charmouth Heritage Centre at the Salt House, West Bay on Wednesday 22nd January at 2pm. He will be talking about some of the recent fossil discoveries at Charmouth and how they have added to our knowledge of the Lower Jurassic of Dorset. The area around Charmouth is world-famous for fossils and new discoveries are still being made on this rapidly eroding section of The Jurassic Coast. This illustrated talk will highlight several of these discoveries and the role that we can all play in saving fossils before they are destroyed by the sea.
One of his roles at the Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre is to work with the fossil collecting community to record scientifically important fossils from this part of the World Heritage Site, and to display and interpret these fossils for the public.
Our talks are very popular so booking in advance is advisable. Tickets are £6 and are available by calling Bridport Tourist Information Office on 01308 424901 or book on line at any time.
