Guided Walk: Hutton’s Coast – the journey to Siccar Point

16 May @ 10:30 - 15:00

It is Scotland’s most important geological site, discovered by James Hutton in 1788, but Siccar Point is tucked away on the rugged coastline of the Scottish Borders: a hidden gem with beautiful coastal scenery and a rich geological story. We’ll get to the point by following James Hutton’s journey along the coast from Cockburnspath, gradually travelling back in time through three periods of contrasting sedimentary rocks.

Cost £20 per person, free for young people aged under 26.
