Geological Society of London founded

The Geological Society of London was founded at the Freemasons' Tavern in London in 1807; the founding date is disputed between 13 October and 13 November 1807.

The Society was founded at the Freemasons' Tavern, Great Queen Street, in the Covent Garden district of London. The founding date is disputed: the retrieved passage states 13 November 1807, while the event scope and legacy row record 13 October 1807. Because the supplied passages do not resolve this conflict, the date is recorded as disputed rather than asserted as either exact day.
