In this film by accomplished film maker Henry Kirkwood, Steve England from Outdoor Learning takes us to the stunning Frome Valley to show us how to find fossilised trees such as Calamites and other carboniferous tree fragments. He talks about how to 'read' the geological rock structures, the tools needed for fossil hunting, and demonstrates how to find them.
