Field Trip to the Jurassic Coast<\/strong><\/p>\n

A party of 27 group members visited the Jurassic coast, staying in Weymouth. This was the second visit to the area by the Group, the first being in October 2010. Click here<\/a> for our non geology 'holiday' snaps!<\/p>\n

The trip was organised by Peter Bridges, one of our members, and we received expert guidance from Chris Andrew of the Lyme Regis Museum and Alan Holiday, a local resident geologist. It was Alan who led our 2010 field trip.<\/p>\n
