Fractures & Fossils
An often overlooked, possibly unique, feature of Brimham are the remarkable massive fractured and split rocks across the site and hidden away are fossils of life during the Carboniferous period.
The Great Split Rock, a huge Millstone Grit block showing the full set of fracture features.....
An artists impression of Eryops limnopus, a temnospondyli possibly an ancestor of the animal that made the footprints on the rock at Brimham 320 miilion years ago.
