Broad Ledge, Lyme Regis, Dorset

A very large coprolite (fossilised faeces) from the Lower Lias clay at Lyme Regis. It contains bones and scales of fish which can be clearly seen. It is thought to be from an ichthyosaur.
A superb example of a coprolite weighing over half a kilogram. It is very rare to find one this large and with so many fish remains.
