Grimes Graves is a fascinating archaeological site that offers a glimpse into the Neolithic past. Dating back over 5,000 years, Grimes Graves is a large complex of over 400 prehistoric flint mines, making it one of the earliest known mining sites in the world.
Evidence suggests that Grimes Graves was used for mining flint over several centuries, possibly for ceremonial as well as practical purposes.
Visitors to Grimes Graves today can explore the ancient mines, descending into the pits via reconstructed ladders to experience first-hand the environment in which our distant ancestors worked.
