Meeting report

The Annual General Meeting and Bryological Symposium were held in the Field Studies Council’s station at Preston Montford near Shrewsbury , on 8-10 October, with Mark Hill (symposium) and Mark Lawley (excursions) as local secretaries. In November 2002, the BBS visited Preston Montford for the launch of the Survey of the Bryophytes of Arable Land (SBAL). In 2004 we continued the theme of bryological recording. About 50 people attended the meeting, of whom 40 stayed at Preston Montford, with others lodged nearby. At the suggestion of Mark Lawley, we experimented with an unusual meeting format, devoting the mornings to lectures and the afternoons to fieldwork.
