Its collections, because of their early start (certain specimens date back to 17th century collections),^ their rapid growth throughout the 19th century and the very active palaeontological and biostratigraphical research which has centred on them from Adam Sedgwick's time onwards, include a great many type, figured and described specimens and represent many of the classic researches of British geology as well as including important foreign material.
