Fossil Hunt to Whitehill Quarry near Burford, led by Lesley Dunlop of the OGT - 10 a.m. - 12 noon.
By popular request we are running this repeat field trip to Whitehill Quarry. This trip was over-subscribed in January, despite the very cold weather. In March, we completed the new local geology site designation assessment process for this Middle Jurassic site. The junction between the White Limestone Formation and the overlying Forest Marble Formation can be seen. We found numerous small bivalves & some gastropods at this site in January.
Members of the Cotswold Rare Plants Group will be present so there will be information about the flora too.
This trip is open to adults & children (aged 8 & over). There is no charge but pre-booking is essential.
Meeting place & directions will be confirmed on booking.
Please wear suitable clothing & bring snacks & drinks. Hard hats, goggles & safety jackets will be provided.
