Gravestone Geology Walk - St Sepulchre's Cemetery
St Sepulchre's Cemetery, Walton Street, Oxford, Oxfordshire, OX1 2HD
The wide range of rock types used for gravestones means that cemeteries can be geological treasure-troves. We will be referring to the history of graveyard design and demonstrating changes in styles of gravestones. Join geologists Nina Morgan and Philip Powell on a guided geological walk through St Sepulchre's cemetery. You'll never look at cemeteries in the same way again!
Group size limited to 15 per walk – so booking will be essential.
