 | | Bearsden is a residential suburb of Glasgow which has a stream called the Manse Burn that runs through it. |
 | | The fossils include shrimps (Tealliocaris, Palaemysis, Crangopsis, Tyrannophontes, Minicaris and the enigmatic copepod, Cyclus), fishes (photograph of a juvenile fish taken with UV light), sharks (the 'Bearsden Shark' is a well known fossil and is frequently illustrated in popular books (photographed in toluene), myodocopids, and bivalves. |
 | | This is the material I did my PhD thesis on, so the locality is of particular significance to me. The preservation was so good, that even muscle-blocks and blood vessels were preserved in some crustaceans. |
