The geology of Wales spans a very long history, from the Precambrian, through the Cambrian, Ordovician and Silurian – first identified in Wales – to much more recent Miocene rocks found in deep boreholes and, of course, glacial and post-glacial deposits.

This guide describes the geological history of Wales, the evolution of its structure, its stratigraphy and the nature of the rocks and processes that have shaped the Welsh landscape.
