This is an attempt to summarize what lacks in Wikipedia to cover the regional geology of northwestern Europe (including the British Isles) in a complete, clear and punctual way. This inventarisation will probably not be complete and forms just the tip of the iceberg, but hey, let's start somewhere... Feel free to edit this page when you want to add stuff.
