Metamorphic rocks are nonexistent in central and Eastern England. Good places are hilly regions where rocks have been deformed by tectonic collisions. The best places for this are the Scottish-English border, Cornwall and Western Devon.
I recommend the free smart phone app 'iGeology' from the British Geological Survey for more information.
What else can I help you with?
Changed-over rocks are called?
Metamorphic Rocks
Are unakite rocks Sedimentary rocks Metamorphic rocks or Igneous rocks?
Unakite rocks are metamorphic rocks formed from the alteration of igneous rocks. They are typically composed of pink feldspar, green epidote, and clear quartz.
What are the similarities between sedimentary rocks and metamorphic rocks?
They are both rocks
What do rocks do under heat and pressure?
rocks can change form. There are three main types of rocks, sedimentary, Metamorphic and igneous. igneous. sedimentary rocks are rocks formed from sediment. Metamorphic rocks are rocks formed from heat and pressure. If other rocks are put under heat and pressure then they have a chance to change into metamorphic.
Why would you not expect to find a metamorphic rock in the recesses of the earth?
You WOULD expect to find metamorphic rocks in the recesses (deep layers) of the Earth's crust. But not in the mantle or core. Metamorphic means changed - and rocks - either sedimentary or igneous - get changed by the heat and pressures found in the deep crust.
Where do you find metamorphic rocks?

What forces do you always find present in the formation of metamorphic rocks?
Heat is always present in the formation of metamorphic rocks.
Where can someone find information on metamorphic rocks?
One can find information on metamorphic rocks in any Geology book. One can also find information on metamorphic rocks online on Wikipedia, Library Think Quest and Science Kids New Zealand websites.

Yes
Would you be less like to find fossils in metamorphic rocks than in sedimentary rocks?
Yes.
What are three types of rocks?
igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic
What kinds of rocks do you not find fossils in and why?
Igneous rocks and metamorphic rocks, because the intense heat and pressure destroys fossils.
