Field TripsGeneral InformationDo check with this website and/or the organiser before leaving for any trip. We will also try to contact anyone who has registered an interest in a trip in advance. Always check the latest issue of "London Platform" for up to date information on any event, or check with the event's organiser. Details of events more than two months ahead are provisional. Using The Maps On This SiteHaving problems with the maps? Click here for help Registering Your Interest In An EventNow there is a new and convenient way of registering for or asking questions about any or all of our events online, using the Registration Form. Simply select the events you are interested in, enter your contact details and press the button. The organisers of the events you have selected will contact you and confirm your interest. You can use the form as many time as you like and you are not committed to anything by registering an interest - you are saving the LOUGS money and the organisers' time by registering in this way. Go on, give it a go. If you have any problems or questions, please contact me at gavin@lougs.org.uk.

September Sunday 12Autumn Geowalk to Vale of Fernhurst, Surrey with Brian Harvey Laurie Baker To register for this event or to ask questions use the Registration Form. October Sunday 17Weald and Downland Open Air Museum, followed by Fishbourne Roman Palace led by Di Smith Yvonne Brett The Weald and Downland Open Air Museum is a collection of largely mediaeval buildings, which have been saved from destruction and re-erected at Singleton. They include cottages, a manor house, a mill, charcoal burning and much more. In more recent years the Gridshell, a new conservation building, has been added. It is a wonderful site, high on the Downs, with lots to interest in all weathers. Fishbourne Roman Palace houses Britain’s largest in situ collection of Roman mosaics from different periods, the reconstructed Roman gardens, and a museum of finds from the excavations, including the earliest timber buildings and the harbour. So the visit will complement the morning’s discoveries.
Transport It is obviously much easier by car. Please let us know if you could offer or would like a lift. Buses from Chichester Station pass the Museum. Info will be sent if required.

Your LOUGS committee is offering a hands-on experience to get you started. We are organising a field trip to Herne Bay on the north Kent coast where you can see REAL rocks to supplement your virtual field trips. You will quickly learn that rocks, even when they are 55 million years old, do not have to be hardened. The cliffs at Herne Bay are particularly interesting as you can see the layering of 3 different rock-types in the cliff face. They are an SSSI.
