description |
|
Approximately 345 million years old, this wonderfully preserved brachiopod is complete and was discovered in 1967. This locality has collapsed in on itself a few decades ago. Fossil collecting is strictly prohibited on Treak Cliff thesedays. One for the discerning collector of fine fossil brachiopods from Derbyshire. The specimen resided in the late GORDON WALKDEN collection. |
