Smokejacks Brickworks, near Walliswood (4 km southwest of Ockley), Surrey
Organised by the Kent Geologists’ Group
As part of their field trip programme this year the Kent Geologists’ Group have arranged two visits to Smokejacks Brickpit, the famous quarry that has yielded numerous dinosaur remains and other fossils from the Cretaceous Weald Clay. In 1983 Bill Walker, an amateur collector, found a new theropod dinosaur, Baryonyx walkeri, here which proved to be crucial to the understanding of the spinosaurs, and on the Geologists’ Association fieldtrip to the site in 2001 a well-preserved partial skeleton of a juvenile iguanodont (Mantellisaurus atherfieldensis) was found. During 2016 a small claw, possibly Baryonyx, was recovered and during 2017, a tooth from a large unidentified theropod dinosaur.
Hard hats, protective goggles and reflective jackets are compulsory. Minimum age: 12 years, and must be accompanied by a parent or guardian. A charge of £2 will be made to cover expenses.
Full details of the trips, plus meeting place and time, the risk assessment, and how to book your place can be obtained by emailing or telephoning Gerald Lucy (geraldlucy@greenbee.net) (07512 156579).
