We’re about to start an online course for anyone interested in the geological history of the British Isles. It’s suitable for anyone with a basic knowledge of geology who wants to know more about how the British Isles came to be as it is.

Before we start, I have to warn you that this is going to be a bumpy ride that commences around 3 billion years ago. You’ll have to endure violent volcanoes, plate collisions, warm coral reefs, steaming equatorial forests, hot dry deserts and ice ages before we eventually arrive at the present day.

Under this title we’ve explored more than 30 parts of the British Isles and examined the work of some of our geological pioneers, but for this short course, we’re bringing you six more brand new episodes! This time we'll be looking at The Mendips, The Islands of Islay & Jura, The Kingdom of Fife, The Eyri National Park (Snowdonia), Shropshire in the Welsh Borders, and, The Bristol Channel

Over the past couple of years, we’ve been running a series of one-off sessions covering random geological topics. These were branded as ‘Wednesdays at 7’.

Whilst these have been very popular, several of you urged us to also offer the same session in the afternoon. Well, we’ve listened and now you can enjoy the same content in the afternoon or the evening!
