Long Rock

Ice Age Finds

Description

The Long Rock is a Site of Specialist Scientific Interest (SSSI) designation due to Hog’s Fennel which only grows at a few locations in Britain. According to Whitstable Maritime, it significantly also supports the rare Fisher’s Estuarine Moth, only found in Kent and Essex. Fossils from the last Ice Age can be found on the beach (mammoth, woolly rhinoceros), as can ancient flint implements and ancient pottery.
