Over the years Titterstone Clee has been the subject of intensive quarrying and the village of Bedlam was built especially for the quarry workers who came from the towns of Bridgnorth and Ludlow to work. Bedlam is conveniently located just over 6 miles from the medieval town of Ludlow which provides a wealth of independent shops and cafés, frequent open air markets, national supermarkets and a host of recreational facilities. Also within easy reach is Church Stretton, which nestles at the foot of the Long Mynd hills, Shrewsbury, Leominster, the World Heritage Site at Ironbridge, Severn Valley Railway, Stokesay Castle and the Wroxeter Roman City. The entire area is renowned for its scenic walking and cycling and from the village of Bedlam enthusiasts can enjoy the Bedlam on Clee walk; a circular 8 mile trek along the Shropshire Way, passing over the hill summit and back and on a clear day provides the most stunning views of the landscape.

    1 A solution to Darwin‟s dilemma of 1859: exceptional preservation in Salter‟s 2 material from the late Ediacaran Longmyndian Supergroup, England 3 4 Richard H.T. Callow and Martin D. Brasier 5 Department of Earth Sciences, University of Oxford, Parks Road, Oxford, OX1 3PR, UK. [email protected] 6 7 8 Study of historic and fresh collections from the Longmyndian Supergroup sheds new 9 light on Ediacaran microbial communities and taphonomy. First reported by Salter in 10 1856, and noted by Darwin in the ‘Origin of Species’ in 1859, a range of macroscopic 11 bedding plane markings are already well known from the Longmyndian. Here we report 12 filamentous and sphaeromorph microfossils, variously preserved as carbonaceous films, 13 by aluminosilicate permineralization and as bedding plane impressions. This supports a 14 long-suspected link between wrinkle markings and microbes and draws further 15 attention to our hypothesis for a taphonomic bias towards high-quality soft tissue 16 preservation in the Ediacaran Period. 17 18 19 The Precambrian has long been a puzzle for palaeontologists and for many years Precambrian 20 sediments were thought to be unfossiliferous. Charles Darwin saw the lack of a Precambrian fossil 21 record as a potential problem for his theory of natural selection, a problem which has become 22 known as „Darwin‟s Dilemma‟: “To the question why we do not find records of these vast 23 primordial periods, I can give no satisfactory answer.” (Darwin 1859). Despite this, Darwin 24 appeared confident that life had existed during the Precambrian and that fossils were yet to be 25 identified: “Consequently, if my theory be true, it is indisputable that before the lowest 26 [Cambrian] stratum was deposited, long periods elapsed, as long, or probably far longer than, 27 the whole interval from the [Cambrian] age to the present day; and that during these vast, yet 28 quite unknown, periods of time, the world swarmed with living creatures.” (Darwin 1859).

  • Ludlow Photographic Club
    Ludlow Photographic Club Newsletter No. 7 Dear Members It was good to “see” the majority of you at our recent Social Meeting using Zoom. Thanks again to Nick Tranter for organising a testing quiz. Since the last Newsletter, lockdown measures have been eased however the maximum number of people allowed to meet outdoors is still 6, thus our Photo Meets are still constrained by this. Six of us met up at the Stiperstones on 6th June and you can see some of the images taken by the group on our website under “Members’ Gallery” and also some have been posted on the LPC Facebook site. We met again on 25th June at Clun Castle and results should soon be appearing online. I would like to thank Keith Pointon for agreeing to give a critique of members’ travel images on 30th June and to all members who took part. At the time of writing, the re opening of indoor meetings is still being discussed by the government. However, I have received a letter from Helen Hughes, CEO of Ludlow Assembly Rooms and have copied part of it here for your information. Dear Colleague Building work recommenced on 26 May and the latest projected completion date is somewhere around the end of November. This assumes that there are no more unknowns discovered - more rotten timbers were uncovered in the first week back! There will obviously be a lot for staff and volunteers to do before the doors can be opened, (not made easier by the loss of a lot of our stored equipment during the floods earlier in the year and the not unexpected ongoing saga of an insurance claim).

  • SABRINA TIMES March 2020
    SABRINA TIMES March 2020 Open University Geological Society Severnside Branch Branch Organiser’s Report Hello everyone, Day of Talks Our last event of 2019, the annual Day of Lectures at the National Museum in Cardiff, had a good turnout of thirty- five members who enjoyed four excellent talks. Cindy Howells (National Museum of Wales) gave a talk about dinosaur discoveries and the history of some of the collectors; Prof Susan Marriott (University of Bristol) described the early depositional environment of the Old Red Sandstone in the Anglo-Welsh Basin; Prof. Huw Davies (Cardiff University) presented the background to the relatively new science of mantle circulation modelling; and the talk from Dr. Ian Skilling (University of South Wales) described some of the processes that trigger explosions when hot magma meets cold water. Something for everyone ! Our thanks go to Michelle Thomas for organising this popular event. Branch Annual General Meeting It was good to meet those members who were able to attend our branch AGM in February, at our new venue of Langstone Village Hall. As always, the AGM presented an opportunity to reflect on our collective achievements during the previous year, namely, one overseas trip; two weekend field trips; four day trips; a weekend workshop; a day of lectures; a talk at our branch AGM; and the publication of five newsletters. Both Averil Leaver and John de Caux announced that they intended to relinquish their committee roles as Treasurer and Newsletter Editor respectively at the next AGM in 2021. Hence we are now seeking volunteers to take over these important roles – please contact me if you are interested in these opportunities and would like to help with branch activities.

  • An Introduction to 700 Million Years of Earth History in Shropshire and Herefordshire
    ISSN 1750-855X (Print) ISSN 1750-8568 (Online) An introduction to 700 million years of earth history in Shropshire and Herefordshire 1 Peter Toghill TOGHILL, P. (2008). An introduction to 700 million years of earth history in Shropshire and Herefordshire. Proceedings of the Shropshire Geological Society, 13, 8–24. The beautiful landscape of the Welsh Marches is underlain by a rock sequence representing 10 of the 12 recognised periods of geological time. This remarkable variety, covering 700 million years of Earth history, has resulted from the interplay of three main factors: (1) erosion and faulting which have produced a very complex outcrop pattern; (2) southern Britain's position near to plate boundaries through most of late Precambrian and Phanerozoic time; and, most importantly, (3) the incredible 12,000 km, 500 million year, journey of southern Britain across the Earth's surface from the southern hemisphere to the northern, caused by plate tectonic processes. 1Church Stretton, Shropshire, UK. E-mail: [email protected] BACKGROUND This paper set the geological scene for the one-day symposium at Ludlow forming the centrepiece of the 2007 Marches Festival of Geology. However, this is not the place to provide a detailed description of the geology of Shropshire per se, for which the reader is referred to Peter Toghill’s Geology of Shropshire (2006), thereby to benefit from the author’s detailed knowledge of the local geology. The beautiful landscape of the Welsh Marches is underlain by a rock sequence representing ten of the twelve recognised periods of geological time (10 out of 13 if the Tertiary is subdivided into two periods).
