The Fullers Earth Formation is a geological formation that outcrops in southern England. It is also mostly present in the subsurface of the Wessex Basin and offshore in the English Channel Basin, Celtic Sea Basin and St George's Channel Basin. It preserves fossils dating back to the Bathonian stage of the Middle Jurassic series. It is the lateral equivalent of the Rutland Formation and the Sharp's Hill Formation

The Llanfallteg Formation is a geologic formation in Wales. It preserves fossils dating back to the Ordovician period. It predominantly consists of ash containing siltstones, as wells as ash fall deposits and tuffs. It likely dates to the Darriwilian based on graptolites. The local graptolite fauna includes Didymograptus artus and Glossograptus armatus. The local trilobite fauna includes agnostids, phacopids and asaphids.

The Ancholme Group is a geologic group in England. It preserves fossils dating back to the Jurassic period. It has previously been referred to as the Ancholme Clay Group. The group consists of predominantly grey, marine mudstone and silty mudstone with beds of argillaceous limestone nodules. In parts of its range it interfingers with the Corallian Group, which predominantly consists of coralliferous limestones.
The Selborne Group is a geologic group in England. It preserves fossils dating back to the Cretaceous period. It comprises the Gault Formation and the overlying Upper Greensand Formation.
