Records, Journals and Special Publications

The club has long been actively involved in the exploration and surveying of underground features in the south east of England. These range from stone, chalk and sand mines, to Deneholes and natural chalk cavities and caves. Focus of attention has shifted to south east Wales in recent years and Volume 19 & Volume 33 all contain articles on finds there. Volumes 21 & 25 describe explorations & finds in the far north of Norway. The volume numbers that are missing in the table below are unfortunately out of print at the present time.
