Happisburgh sea defences

Happisburgh became a site of national archaeological importance in 2010 when flint tools over 800,000 years old were unearthed. This is the oldest evidence of human occupation anywhere in the UK.[3] In May 2013, a series of early human footprints were discovered on the beach at the site, providing direct evidence of early human activity at the site.[4]
