In contrast, dinosaur track sites at Spyway Quarry, Dorset & Hanover Point, Isle of Wight have relatively low scientific value but high cultural value as they can be easily found & well communicated.

Arguably, the most scientifically important UK sites include Bendrick Rock (artwork by @markwitton.bsky.social shown), South Wales, Ardley Quarry, Oxfordshire & Hastings, East Sussex but these may be challenging to access and/or communication of the site in the public space lacking.
