Welcome to the Geological Society of Glasgow
Welcome to our website! With a tradition of over 150 years and almost 400 members, our Society is well known and established in the 'world of geology' on both a local and a global level. We have a full and varied selection of meetings throughout the year to interest and excite members – new and otherwise alike. From October to April the Society hosts one lecture per month on current, provocative topics and recent research, whilst from April to September we have six 'day' plus two 'residential' field trips, to a selection of localities in Scotland and beyond....
I hope that visitors enjoy our website and find plenty of interesting items which are both attractive and intriguing.
