About This Event

This event features a display of work by Walter Drawbridge Crick (1857-1903). Walter Crick was noted as an early member of the Society’s Geology Section. He had backgrounds in business, palaeontology, and conchology.

Walter Crick was an early member of the Society’s Geology Section. He was a businessman, palaeontologist and conchologist, and was first a student and later a colleague of Beeby Thompson. He went on to correspond with Charles Darwin, and his grandson was the molecular biologist Francis Crick.
