    Geoconservation Day, Cotwall End Quarry, Dudley   10.00 - 2.30

    Saturday 8 February (Geoconservation Day): Cotwall End Quarry, Dudley. Parking/meet on Cotwall End Road, opposite house No. 61 (Grid ref: SO 906 919, nearest PC: DY3 3EJ). This is the closest access to the quarry. Meet for a 10.00 start. The area has had very little management over the last 25 years, but has some amazing features to unveil. The wardens are currently removing larger material to restore the area to grassland and encourage geological interest and biodiversity. Bring appropriate footwear and outdoor gear and a packed lunch. Wardens will provide tools. We will aim to end by 2.30.
