We’re getting even more excited about rocks

In the last blog Phil was getting excited about the rocks of Anglesey. Our interest in rocks is hotting up even more now thanks to our collaboration with Beijing Normal University to deliver a Chinese conference on earth science interpretation.

Familiar points in a brief: 1. Must be vandal-proof. 2. Must last “forever”. 3. Must be beautiful. All understandable requests. But of course we know that there’s no such thing as vandal-proof.  All we can do is make the signs and interpretive art we put out there as vandal-resistant as possible and hope that the [...]
