SUMMARY:Bradgate Park\, Charnwood Field Trip - Dr Nick Chidlaw
DESCRIPTION:A few miles north west of Leicester the landforms of the east Midlands are conspicuously interrupted by the craggy\, locally-wooded hills of Charnwood Forest. Here are found rocks formed from explosive volcanic eruptions about 600 million years ago\, together with lavas and igneous intrusions; these comprise the Charnian Supergroup. Most of the rocks are thought to have formed in submarine environments\, where turbidite deposition was common\, and landslides repeatedly took place. Within the rocks are found remains of world-famous organisms that predate the earliest shelly fossils. Overlying these rocks are others formed in a contrasting shallow marine environment. On this one-day field visit\, we look at these rocks in accessible exposures in Bradgate Country Park\, on the SE margin of Charnwood. \n\n\n\nThe trip will be led by Dr Nick Chidlaw. To view trip details and registration information please click here. \n\n\n\nThere are 15 places available\, which will be allocated on a first-come-first-served basis. There is a charge of £5 per person for this trip\, payable by cash or cheque on the day. There is also a charge of about £5 for parking and on a fine weekend\, the car parks at Bradgate Park can be busy\, so lift sharing would be sensible where possible – please therefore indicate whether you can offer or need a lift when you register. \n\n\n\nBradgate Sliding Stone Slump BrecciaBradgate – view towards Old JohnBradgate – view towards Old John
