The Geological Society of London: East Anglian Regional Group Evening Lecture

Mousehold Heath Earth Heritage Trail With

Tim Holt-Wilson (Geological Society of Norfolk) Over the centuries, many tons of brickearth, sand, gravel and chalk have been extracted from Mousehold Heath, leaving a legacy of hummocks and hollows in 88 hectares of heathland less than a mile from the centre of Norwich. The Trail is an interpretive project which focuses on links between the geology, landscape, biodiversity and industrial history through 18 points of interest, and an introductory leaflet and 25 supporting web pages. New geological exposures provide windows on the inside story of the Heath, which is thought to be the remnant of a glacial outwash plain. The Trail sets out to connect people with the deep history of their local environment. Presented by Tim Holt-Wilson of the Geological Society of Norfolk, this talk will give an overview of the Trail and its key interpretive stories, and discuss some of the research questions raised by the project.
