Abstract – The origins, uses and fates of a number of purpose built urban educational resources are reviewed including a candidate for the oldest purpose made geological education trail in the world. A range of educational uses of these resources are suggested. Comparison is made with similar resources in London and ways to ensure their preservation and continued educational use are suggested.
