Urban Geology of Warwick

Jon Radley of WGCG will lead an urban geology walk around Warwick starting and finishing at the entrance to the Market Hall Museum. The tour will focus on Warwick’s building stones with emphasis on the locally sourced examples and what they can tell us about ancient Warwickshire. Fossils, minerals, climate change and ancient environments will feature in the walk, which will conclude back at the Market Hall Museum at about midday. There, participants will have the opportunity to further explore the town and county geo-heritage through the museum displays

This event is taking place as part of the national Earth Science Week events (8-14/10/23). The length of the walk will be approximately 1-2 miles. The walk is open to all but will be limited to 15 participants. To register for this walk please contact Julie Harrald [email protected]
