GRP GEOL1 Geology

Geology

We meet on the 3rd Friday from 10.00-12.00.

Venue: Malvern Cube Community Centre, Albert Road North, Malvern WR14 2YH.

(Inactive during: None).

Meetings in the Cube only take place in the winter months - October to May. During the warmer months, we organise outdoor visits to areas of interest in Malvern and surrounding areas. We encourage the study of geology especially in the Malvern area and in adjacent counties. This includes looking at the interaction between geology and landscapes and related topics such as the stones used in our buildings and monuments. We aim to learn more about the subject by organising lectures/talks by visiting speakers, visiting areas of interest both locally and further afield, encouraging study and research in small groups, providing a library of geology maps, leaflets and books and arranging residential field trips in the UK and overseas. In addition, we provide a series of introductory talks in the early autumn for newcomers to the subject. We email to all members a monthly newsletter and have a comprehensive website that gives details of our previous activities. Visitors are always welcome to group meetings.

See our Geology Website for further details of the group’s past activities and future programme.
