In 1998, shifting sands on a Norfolk beach exposed the Bronze Age monument now called Seahenge
A remarkable Bronze Age timber circle, Seahenge, emerged from Norfolk's sands in 1998. This ancient oak structure, preserved for millennia, faced imminent destruction from the sea. Archaeologists launched a rapid rescue excavation, working against tides to document this significant find. Seahenge highlights the vulnerability of coastal heritage and the urgent need for preservation in a changing environment.
