Goldcliffe, Severn Estuary - Human Footprints On A Mesolithic Foreshore (11x8)

Air date: Feb 22, 2004

Popular archaeology programme. Tony Robinson and the team uncover evidence relating to Britain's earliest inhabitants as they work on the beach of the River Severn. Flints, food remains and fossilised footsteps offer an insight into the lives of hunter-gatherers who existed 8,000 years ago. But the mud, the tide and the weather ensure that the team must work swiftly to preserve the archaeological finds.
