The Wellington district is mostly rural and agricultural. It can be divided into four geomorphological areas related to bedrock geology: in the extreme north-west, rather rugged country is underlain by Devonian to Lower Triassic rocks; in the north, west and central area, gently rolling countryside is underlain by the Triassic Mercia Mudstone Group; in the east, rolling countryside is underlain by the Jurassic Lias Group; in the centre and south, a high dissected plateau (the Blackdown Hills) is underlain by the Cretaceous Upper Greensand Formation and Chalk Group.
