Rock Doctors at the Hunterian Museum

As part of Scottish Geology Festival, join us in the Hunterian Museum for Rock Doctors.

They might not be Time Lords, but these doctors know their rocks!

Bring along your own mysterious rocks, pebbles or fossils to get them identified by experts. See the famous 'Bearsden Shark', make your own clay ammonites, fossil rubbings, or try out our dinosaur quiz.

Come along early and take home a real fossil!

Book your free place here, or just drop in. Suitable for all ages.
