I've finished cleaning my () fossils today. I haven't spent much time trying to identify them yet, but they are mostly ferns and calamites : Odontopteris, Pecopteris, Asterophyllites, Annularia...

amateur geologist at a quarry on Swansea's Townhill in 1861.There were many quarries on the Hill providing building stone for houses in the west of the town and building of the South Dock and the River Tawe New Cut in the early 1850s.Matthew is standing next to some spectacular current bedding in the sandstone.He is holding his folding ruler, probably a Rabone model.As a geologist I'm sure he carried it around with him!
