What to expect
Travel back in time to prehistoric Northumberland on a guided tour of North East England. So much of human history is unrecorded, piece it together with the archaeology findings and interactions of ancient peoples.
Take a journey around Northumberland to see the sites where ancient humans lived, from houses built at the end of the last Ice age on the coast at Howick, through to neolithic rock art panels at Lordenshaws and bronze age burial mounds above them at Simonside and finally iron age hillforts in the Ingram valley!
This tour is a fantastic way to discover a world that was never written about but has been mapped together to help us understand the human story of our world.
