Year 8 Geography Fieldwork in Epping Forest, November 7th 2002
 

  

Year 8 accompanied by Alison Ainsworth, Jean King and Tony Miller went to Epping Forest Field centre to study River channels. We were very lucky to go on the only dry day of the week! The class used a soil augur to examine the underlying geology. Here we find out that impermeable clay (Bagshot Beds) provides the source of the Loughton Beck which we studied. We took measurements at 3 different sites and used the data to produce reports back at school.
