Pembrokeshire weekend for Rockwatchers!
Rockwatchers are off to explore Pembrokeshire! A great weekend fieldtrip exploring the St David’s peninsula on 14 and 15 July. Lots of geology with sedimentary and igneous rocks (Precambrian and Ordovician), quaternary landfalls and insights into climate change. A great fieldtrip but lots of walking so for over 10s only.
Fabulous fieldtrip to see the Ichthyosaurs in Street, Somerset
Rockwatchers had a really fabulous time on a private tour of the Alfred Gillet Museum in Street, Somerset. The Museum houses some of the finest Ichthyosaur fossils in the country and we had the benefit of experts showing us around. Thank you to everyone involved! And if you missed the trip, look out for the next Events Leaflet coming out next month and make sure you book early.
