The Geological Section helps promote the study of rocks, fossils and landscape of the Bristol district.

Indoor meetings are held during the winter months with speakers invited to talk on subjects as diverse as dinosaurs and volcanoes.

Outdoor activities include visits to local geological sites, many providing opportunities to collect specimens. Our recent programme has been enhanced by reciprocal hospitality with other local societies.

The section prides itself in being able to offer something of geological interest to all its members, be they professional or amateur. The Geological section has good links with Bristol Regional Environmental Records Centre, Bristol City Museum and Bristol University.
