  • Kirtlington Quarry: Its History and Geology and the Search for Early
    Kirtlington Quarry: its history and geology and the search for early mammals Eric F Freeman Abstract: Kirtlington Quarry, a well-known former exposure of Middle Jurassic rocks north of Oxford, was worked for cement production from 1907 until 1929. Important but largely unpublished research undertaken there at the time by Charles J. Bayzand, a museum assistant and geological lecturer, is placed in the context of better known work by M. Odling and W.J. Arkell, his contemporaries at Oxford University. When integrated with the quarry’s industrial archaeology and growth, as reconstructed from old maps and cement production records, Bayzand’s work suggests that a sediment rich in mammal and other microvertebrate fossils, the Kirtlington Mammal Bed, was once extensively exposed, but went unrecognised, and had been largely quarried away prior to its eventual discovery in 1974. Augmented by more recent work, the old research by Bayzand, Odling and Arkell allows the palaeoecology of the Mammal Bed to be modelled, including coastal dune-fields and mammal remains from the faecal debris of theropod dinosaurs. Since the days of Robert Plot (1640–1696), and his were found at the junction between two of the classic Natural History of Oxford-Shire, the area to the north Middle Jurassic rock units named by William Smith, of Oxford (Fig. 1), with its former profusion of quarries the Forest Marble and the Great Oolite. The bones were in highly fossiliferous Jurassic strata, and its proximity acquired by the Oxford University Museum, which had to the learned folk of Oxford University, has played an been opened in 1857, with William Smith’s nephew, important part in the development of geology.
