Dave, this was authenticated by the Natural History Museum of London. They had a lot of similar teeth there. Warden Point is famous for its fossils. The whole cliff is soft red clay, and is continuosly being washed away by the sea, leaving behind a wealth of small fossils.

Are you certain of its age? When did you last calibrate your carbon-dating device?
