Abstract
The Runcorn quarries were cited in the geological literature both in the 1840s, when the footprints of Triassic reptiles were first found there, and more particularly during the turn-of-the-century years, when there was a great revival of interest in the Cheshire footprints. For the reader today, however, problems are posed by the number of quarries in the area and the frequency with which they changed hands, particularly in the later years. This paper provides background information on the history of the quarries. The earliest finds from these quarries, hitherto unrecorded in the literature, are identified.
