Sunderland was OK for that sort of thing, decent museum and loads of countryside, they took us to Quarrington quarry one weekend with a geologist, huge amount of fossils in there, I found an almost whole fossil fish in better condition than this which I am guessing is from the same quarry. https://www.fossils-uk.com/new-in-c40/british-upper-permian-fossil-fish-from-county-durham-england-sku-v2384-palaeoniscus-freieslebenesis-p3873
