William Lonsdale and a Reminder

Collectors, Collections and the Geology of South West Britain

A source has reminded me that there is an interesting meeting coming soon to Bath. It is "Collectors, Collections and the Geology of South West Britain", which takes place on 18-19 September at the Bath Royal Literary and Scientific Institution premises in the centre of Bath. The meeting, jointly hosted by HoGG and the Geological Curators Group, will include a day of talks and posters followed by a day of optional field trips.

To view the programme or to register visit: www.geocurator.org/swmeeting Registration costs just £19 (£15 for members of HoGG, GCG, BRLSI and the Bath Geological Society)
