  • Field Trip Report the Tortworth Inlier Sunday 26Th April 2015. Dave
    Field Trip Report The Tortworth Inlier Sunday 26th April 2015. Dave Green, our group leader, showed us some of the fascinating geology, to the north-east of the city of Bristol. This area is relatively flat but has some undulating topography as it runs into the Vale of Berkeley. It includes the northern part of the once busy Bristol Coalfield. This part of South Gloucestershire is largely rural, dotted with farms, small villages and little townships. It is enclosed by the Mendip Hills to the south, the Cotswold Escarpment to the north and to the east, and the Severn estuary to the west. The area is drained by small streams and rivers like the Frome, whose waters skirt the contours and tumble into the Severn Estuary. Palaeozoic rocks can be found exposed here, while to the east and north east younger Mesozoic rocks overlie them. The geology of South Gloucestershire at first blush appears complex and takes a little unravelling. To begin with; some terminology An inlier is an island of older rock strata, surrounded by younger strata. The Tortworth Inlier comprises Cambrian/Silurian outcrops surrounded by Mesozoic rocks located around Charfield Green, just south of the Little Avon river. It also lies North East of the Carboniferous Coalpit Heath syncline once mined for the bituminous coals it contains. The rock strata we hoped to see Cambrian rocks The oldest strata are the Micklewood beds of upper Cambrian/Lower Ordivician and Tremadoc in age. These are grey micaceous shales with flaggy sandstone or siltstones inbetween. They lie in the southern third of the Tortworth inlier.
