Bronze Age find made during Lake District Viking search
14 November 2017
Archaeologists looking for Viking remains have found artefacts that are 2,000 years older.
The dig at Longhouse Close on fells above Seathwaite, Cumbria, was excavating Norse longhouses, dating from the early 10th Century.
But 70 volunteers, led by professional archaeologists, have uncovered remains of a Bronze Age settlement underneath the Viking structures.
