Redcliff Point is one of Dorset’s most rewarding Upper Jurassic fossil localities, exposing both the fossil-rich Oxford Clay Formation and the overlying Corallian Group within a spectacular coastal setting. The foreshore yields a diverse range of fossils, including ammonites, belemnites, large bivalves, trace fossils and occasional vertebrate remains, while the Oxford Clay has historically produced marine reptiles and giant oysters such as Gryphaea dilatata. Fresh erosion, heavy rain and scouring tides regularly expose new material, making this an excellent destination for the dedicated fossil collector.
