Deep History Coast

The Visitor Centre underwent renovations in 2020 to install the Deep History Coast Gateway Discovery Centre.

Norfolk used to sit at the edge of a vast plain connecting Britain to mainland Europe, on which roamed giant deer, scimitar-toothed cats, lions, monkeys, mammoths, and hominin (human) species.
