Meeting details
Leader: Sharon Pilkington
This fascinating part of the Mendip Hills lies on the south-facing scarp slope where limestone gives way first to the Coal Measures and then to mudstone conglomerate. Habitats include rocky limestone grassland, classic moss-drenched Mendip walls, clay paths and rocky woodland and scrub. It has not been explored very well but promises a diverse bryoflora.
Meet in the free car park at Deerleap Viewpoint at ST51904927. This is on the narrow minor lane between Priddy and Wookey Hole.
