Dinosaur footprints in the Wealden at Fairlight, East Sussex, by A. S. Parkes, published 1993 in The Proceedings of the Geologists' Association London (no. 104 issue 1, article, pp.15-21) View Online
Abstract:Dinosaur footprints were found in coastal exposures of the Lower Cretaceous (Valanginian) Ashdown Beds at Fairlight, near Hastings, East Sussex during 1991-92. A total of 23 footprints were recorded of which 19 were attributed to iguanodonts and four to theropods. Four short (one- and two-'step') trackways were included, representing both dinosaur groups. Assessments of dinosaur speed and type of gait have been determined from the trackway data.
