Leaflet on Cardiff Naturalists' Society, A Condensed History, Cardiff, September 1967

Disgrifiad

A condensed History of the Cardiff Naturalists' Society describing their founding and journey of progression as the society evolves, making close links with the National Museum Wales. 'The Society was founded in the year 1867, primarily, it is believed, at the instigation of Robert Drane, F.L.S. (1883-1914), in whose memory, sixty years later, a tablet was placed upon the entrance to No. 16 Queen Street Cardiff, by the society, recording that here he lived and here the society had been founded.' The society is the longest established wildlife organisation in the area and promotes the study of natural history, geology and the natural sciences. The Society held many lectures and talks on a variety of topics, as well as field trips and exhibitions. The society is still active today and holds a yearly programme.
