| Well over 100 of you joined us on a special walk in Bubbenhall with BBC WM on Sunday 17 October, and we have the pictures to prove it! Take a look at the gallery by clicking the main picture above and you will see BBC presenters, local guides, rangers and many other walkers. The walk was hosted by BBC WM's Annie Othen with special guest experts on archaeology, geology, quarries and more. It was a rare opportunity to be guided around the walk and to learn about the area and its history in a fun way. Definitely worth getting a bit muddy for! If the photographs inspire you, then join in one of the other events listed below, or make your own walk day by printing off our map and following the instructions on the pages linked above. Other attractions You can also combine our 'Find Your Quarry' Walk Through Time walk with a visit to Ryton Organic Gardens, which is just 2 miles from Bubbenhall in the village of Wolston. The garden is signposted with brown tourist signs. Exhibitions & events For The 'Big Draw' on 26 October Warwickshire Museum will be hosting drawing sessions for all age groups with links to the BBC's Natural History of Britain Series featuring objects from the museum's collections. This is a drop-in event, but children must be accompanied by an adult.
Through October you will also get the chance to see some of the Warwickshire fossils featured in the BBC's Natural History of Britain series, in a special exhibition called the Southam Fossils display, at Warwickshire Museum.
