Fossil locations in Scotland?

Recommended Posts

Not sure if this is the appropriate category-I want to collect more often but I don't know of many places that have an abundance of fossils in the north-east of Scotland.

Does anyone know of some good sites? Thanks in advance and best regards Joel :)

I seriously can't stand it when a sentence doesn't end the way you think it octopus.

Hi Joel... I used to have a copy of a book called ...Directory of British Fossiliferous Localities – published in 1954.... Which listed some of the lesser known fossil exposures all over the country included Scotland... Many of the exposures are now closed or picked clean but many of the stream exposures or old quarries, spoil piles are still worth a look...I checked on Amazon and there are 4 copies available from around £40.... Hope this helps....

Cheers Steve... And Welcome if your a New Member... :)
