The Mayor and members of Fingal County Council invite you to the launch of the book ‘Islands, Coasts and Quarries: the Geological Heritage of Fingal’ in the White Sands Hotel, Portmarnock on Thursday 4th October at 11.00am. This richly illustrated book presents some of the fascinating stories of Fingal’s rocks and fossils and describes 21 sites of geological and landscape importance in the county. Immediately after the launch there will be a short walk to see the geology of the nearby coast with the author Matthew Parkes.

The book is published by Fingal County Council with the support of The Heritage Council and will be available on request after the launch – please contact heritage@fingalcoco.ie for a copy.
