Geology

Over 40,000 fossils, rocks and minerals are evidence of vital changes that Devon’s landscape has seen over the past 490 million years. The 4.5 million years old meteorite is a relict of the early days of our planet. Ichthyosaur skeletons represent a time when large reptiles dominated the oceans and dinosaurs ruled the land. Mammoth tusks are remains of the latest Ice Age during which most of today’s landscape features developed.
