Bendricks Rock

Sully Island
Barry, CF62
Open: All year round
Cost: Free public access
The Bendricks is the only known Upper Triassic dinosaur footprint site in Britain and the most extensive trackway site in the country. Prior to 1996 all the trackways discovered in the Bendicks were of animals walking with a bipedal gait but then a quadrupedal trackway was found on the surface of a fallen block at the eastern end of the section, below high tide level.
