Jurassic fossil unearthed - again

Ichthyosaurus Found, Buried, Dug Up Again

A correspondent has sent me THIS LINK. It tells of an Ichthyosaurus being found in a quarry near Langport in 1850, which was buried by the God-fearing quarry masters as they might be defying God if they displayed it.

The family knew all about it and recently had it dug up again and cleaned and are now using it to advertise their cider brandy!
