In discussing Holland, Phillips (1836:20) mentioned both Whitewell and the Whitewell Inn and this is presumably the locality to which Sowerby referred. Phillips also commented that the limestone might be considered to form two oval exposures in the area, one centred on Slaidburn and the other on Chipping with Whitewell close to its boundary. Arbour (or Thomley) Quarry, near Chipping, Yorkshire has been suggested as the probable site for many of Gilbertson's specimens, but it is felt that they would all have come from quarries in the Clitheroe district (personal communication M. Mitchell, N. Riley, R. Grayson and C. H. C. Brunton), although this obviously does not apply to his activities on the Isle of Man. The locality of Tennant's specimen (G72) has not been recorded, but in the catalogue of his collection Tennant (1858:64) records a specimen of Phanerolinus crislatus as coming from Ireland. However, the matrix of G72 would appear to be very similar to that of G184. The two IGS specimens were found loose at different places in the extensive workings at Plumpton, near Ulverston, Cumbria. It has been suggested from a comparison of their lithologies that both specimens came from the Red Hill Oolite (which is a pelleted limestone,.
