Answer 3

Well I went to a college that just turned 100 years old. So if that is what your question is aiming for then yeah, about a hundred. But rock formations occur and are formed over thousands, millions of years. Even trees can take hundreds of years to fully grow and develop.

Answer 4

Beneath London there are large concentrations of Paleozoic hard rocks and Silurian sandstone. There is also a lot of chalk forming the London basin which dates back to pre-Cretaceous. I just moved from the Isle of Wight which is part of the Jurassic Coast and much of the south-west of the Island contains fossils from the Paleocene. Many Iguanadon fossils have been found in the cliffs at Sandown on the Island.
