Abstract
A newly discovered ammonite of the genus Hyperlioceras from the Lincolnshire Limestone Formation of Eastern England enables the biostratigraphical position of the principal building stone of Lincoln Cathedral: the ‘Silver Bed’ variant of Lincoln Stone (Lower Lincolnshire Limestone) to be precisely dated as subsectum biohorizon of the Lower Bajocian, Discites Zone. Ammonites are extremely rare in this formation thus the impetus to record it here and provide a firm date for strata in which it occurred following its discovery. The lithostratigraphical provenance of the specimen is briefly discussed and evidence provided to support the conclusion.
