Extract

A Short time ago a Devonian fossil of considerable interest was found in the grits of the Ladock neighbourhood. It had been found by a workman in a road-heap on the Grampound Road and was placed for preservation in the Truro Museum. A cast was kindly made by Mr. C. Davies Sherborn and presented to the Museum of Practical Geology [22466]. This fossil was named Orthis sp., and is referred to as such in the Memoir of the Geological Survey on the geology of the country near Newquay (p. 35).
