Cut and polished Slice of Fossil Wood from the Ypresian (Eocene) of Isle of Sheppey in England. The wood is bored with Teredina Shipworms, these tubes becoming filled with yellow calcite minerals. The worms that left their traces are called Serpulid building worms. It is quite rare to find pieces as good as this too. The wood was found by ourselves in March 2014. We collect this and carry it back a few miles in rucksacks, its hard work and very heavy but its so worth it when you see the end results!
