Cetiosauruses and a megalosaurus are thought to have left prints at what is said to be largest site of its kind in UK

Researchers have unearthed 200 large dinosaur footprints – said to be the biggest site of its kind in the UK – from two types of dinosaurs, thought to be the herbivorous cetiosaurus and the carnivorous megalosaurus. The longest trackways are 150 metres in length, and only part of the quarry has been excavated.
