U.K.’s Largest Dinosaur Footprint Site Unearthed in Oxfordshire

In a remarkable discovery, scientists have uncovered the U.K.’s largest dinosaur footprint site in an Oxfordshire quarry. The tracks, dating back 166 million years to the Middle Jurassic Period, were found by quarry worker Gary Johnson, who stumbled upon a series of humps while clearing clay. The site, spanning 150 meters, contains approximately 200 giant footprints.

Four trackways are linked to the plant-eating Cetiosaurus, a 60-foot-long dinosaur, while a fifth belonged to the smaller carnivorous Megalosaurus. Paleontologists believe the tracks offer a rare snapshot of these massive creatures’ movements and their environment, preserved likely due to a sediment storm event. Efforts are underway to protect this extraordinary site, hailed as one of the most significant in Europe, ensuring its legacy for future research and education.
