Society examining a cliff ledge at Cromer point at the north end of Scalby Bay. Disturbed sediments are believed to be due to
many dinosaur footprints; "dinoturbation".

Above:Prints (especially centre left) which appear to be
in mudstone on the underside of a fallen block of sandstone resting on
the Dogger Formation between Whitby and Saltwick Bay. The prints are infilled with sandstone. The
prints may be interpreted as "scratch marks" made by a swimming
dinosaur.
