Introduction The aim of this project is to identify ways to safeguard important scientific fossils from the Dorset and East Devon Coast World Heritage Site. The identification of placements in accredited museums would enable intellectual access for scientific study and education. Two consulting companies Weightman Associates and Hidden Horizons have been commissioned to undertake this Project. Weightman Associates is a partnership of Gill Weightman and Alan Weightman; they have been in partnership for twenty years working on museum and geology projects. Hidden Horizons Ltd is a museum and heritage consultancy formed in 2013 by Will Watts. When UNESCO granted World Heritage status to the Dorset and East Devon Coast in 2001 it recognised the importance of the Site’s geology and geomorphology. The Jurassic Coast Management Plan 2014-2019 has as one of its aims to “To Conserve and enhance the Site and its setting for science, education and public enjoyment” and the Plan states that a critical success factor is “An increase in the number of scientifically important fossils found along the site that are acquired by or loaned back to local accredited museums”.

  • Highly Derived Eutherian Mammals from the Earliest Cretaceous of Southern Britain
    Editors' choice Highly derived eutherian mammals from the earliest Cretaceous of southern Britain STEVEN C. SWEETMAN, GRANT SMITH, and DAVID M. MARTILL Sweetman, S.C., Smith, G., and Martill, D.M. 2017. Highly derived eutherian mammals from the earliest Cretaceous of southern Britain. Acta Palaeontologica Polonica 62 (4): 657–665. Eutherian mammals (Placentalia and all mammals phylogenetically closer to placentals than to marsupials) comprise the vast majority of extant Mammalia. Among these there is a phenomenal range of forms and sizes, but the origins of crown group placentals are obscure. They lie within the generally tiny mammals of the Mesozoic, represented for the most part by isolated teeth and jaws, and there is strongly conflicting evidence from phenomic and molecular data as to the date of origin of both Eutheria and Placentalia. The oldest purported eutherians are Juramaia from the Upper Jurassic of China, and Eomaia and Acristatherium from the Lower Cretaceous, also of China. Based on dental characters and analyses of other morphological and molecular data, doubt has recently been cast on the eutherian affinities of the Chinese taxa and consequently on the date of emergence of Eutheria. Until now, the only tribosphenic mammal recorded from the earliest Cretaceous (Berriasian) Purbeck Group of Britain was the stem tribosphenidan Tribactonodon. Here we document two new tribosphenic mammals from the Purbeck Group, Durlstotherium gen. nov. and Durlstodon gen. nov., showing highly derived eutherian molar characters that support the early emergence of this clade, prior to the Cretaceous. Key words: Mammalia, Eutheria, dentition, Early Cretaceous, Purbeck Group, Britain, UK. Steven C. Sweetman [[email protected]], Grant Smith [[email protected]], and David M.

  • Tourism and Visitor Management
    Dorset Marine and Coastal Topic Paper Series 2012 Tourism and Visitor Management This topic paper focuses on visitor management on the Dorset Coast and summarises tourism in Dorset and outlines some possible future trends and their implications; The Dorset coast and its maritime waters are arguably Dorset's most important single tourism asset and one of the principal attractions for visitors to Dorset with the top visitor motivations for visiting the area were ‘seaside, beaches and coast’ (http://www.visitdorset.com/xsdbimgs/State%20of%20Tourism%20Report%202010.pdf. Tourism, however, is also a source of many of the pressures on the coastal environment and communities. An increase in visitors at any location along the Dorset Coast (whether one already under pressure from high visitor numbers or a perceived ‘tranquil’ zone) can potentially impact negatively on local landscape and infrastructure.

Venturing along the coastal paths and through the unique landscape of Purbeck, the walks will be repeated during the three days, to ensure as many people as possible get to enjoy them. We have included a mix of distances and terrains so there will be something for everybody. You can choose whether to take a longer walk and explore the area or include a few shorter walks in order to get see the whole area on foot. Either way we will be giving a prize for the most miles covered in 3 days! All walks will be lead by qualified instructors or walk leaders and must be booked in advance.
