An Introduction to Castle Hill

10.00
16 November

Saturday 16 November (Field Meeting): An Introduction to Castle Hill. Led by Ian Beech (Wren's Nest Nature Reserve). Meet at 10.00 in the Wren's Nest wardens' office, Fossil View, off Wren's Hill Road, Dudley, DY1 3SB. After tea/coffee, walk from the wardens' base to Castle Hill via Bluebell Wood. We will be visiting managed and unmanaged sites, looking at outcrops and logging areas with any findings. Many of the outcrops are similar to Wrens' Nest so we should be able to make a comparison along with a general introduction to the site. (Note: This event has been moved from Saturday 17 August).
