Here is the electrifying moment I released a fossil from a Jurassic rock. This is done in much the same way as Mary Anning would have, many moons ago. Follow us on a fossil walk on the day Mary Anning’s statue is arriving at Lyme Regis. Evie Swire had asked her mum(Anya), after doing some fossil hunting, about why at that time 4 years ago, there was no statue for Mary Anning. Anya and Evie worked hard with their project Mary Anning Rocks, along with the team and the "Anning Army " of supporters. I am proud to be a Trustee of Mary Anning Rocks! So see the film of Mary Anning’s statue arriving in the town of Lyme Regis. This video runs right on to the point of the statue`s unveiling- on the 21st May 2022. The statue of Mary Anning is unveiled by Professor Alice Roberts. You can see young Evie to the right of the Mary Anning statue in my film, being beckoned to come forward by Professor Alice Roberts. Evie seemed a little shy of the cameras on the big day. Rightly so, as Evie has been in countless meetings and has been in many many photos all to do with Mary Anning Rocks . She has coped so well being in the spotlight for so long , well done Evie ! Remember to stay away from the dangerous cliffs when looking for fossils. The cliffs are dangerous and liable to fall suddenly and without warning! See our guided fossil walks along Jurassic Coast. You need safety glasses and sturdy gloves for hammering the right little rocks-that split like slate. You must see the current Lyme Regis tide tables to go out fossil collecting at low tide. http://www.lymeregisfossilwalks.com We get booked up far in advance for these fossilwalks#maryanning#fossilhunter#Mary Anning
