SUMMARY:WGCG Summer Social field walk in Leek Wooton
DESCRIPTION:Evening field meeting at Kenilworth Castle Quarry led by Jane Allum\, Stuart Burley\, and Ray Pratt \n\n\n\nThis is a gentle summer evening walk along the Millenium Way footpath on the western side of Leek Wooton golf course to visit North Woodloes Quarry\, recently cleaned by WGCG Conservation Committee\, and to examine exposures in the village of Leek Wooton near the Anchor public house. We will take refreshments in the Anchor after the walk. The round trip walk to Woodloes Quarry is 2.4km over undulating ground on a well-established footpath. \n\n\n\nThese exposures are of the Middle Triassic Helsby Sandstone Formation\, known locally as the Warwick Sandstone\, and nicely supplement the spectacular exposures of the Helsby Sandstone at Guys Cliffe\, revealing complex bedding structures and beautifully preserved calcified fossil root structures. Participants will discuss the type of river deposits represented by the sandstones and what the root structures tell us about sand bar stablisation and Triassic water tables. \n\n\n\nThe field trip Itinerary is:17:45 Meet\, registration and HSE at Leek Wooton Golf Club – Groundsman area.18:00-18:15 Walk to Woodloes Quarry LGS 81 (W3W: ///admire.golden.continues\, SP 276 679)18:15-18:45 Examine and discuss the geology of the quarry faces18:45-19:00 Return to cars and drive to Anchor Pub Car Park19:30 Congregate at Leek Wooton bus stop on Warwick Road for exposure 2.19:45 Head to Anchor pub for food & drinks https://www.anchorleekwootton.co.uk/ \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo register for this trip\, send an email to: warwickshiregcg@gmail.com \n\n\n\nFor more information\, please view the flyer by clicking here
