Fossil hunting for all! The geology of the Naze cliffs is one of the most important geological sites in Eastern England with exposures of Red Crag and London Clay. Walton-on-the-Naze is also a great area for fossil hunting on the beach where you can find sharks’ teeth amongst other things. There’s also a visit to Essex Wildlife Trust’s new visitor centre on the cliff top which should have some geological displays.
Equipment: Suitable clothing and footwear. Bring a packed lunch.
This fieldtrip is being organized jointly by the Geologists’ Association and the Essex Rock and Mineral Society and is particularly suitable for families and children.
