Country Focus: Cherishing Coastal Heritage

Cherishing Coastal Heritage

BBC Radio Wales - Country Focus, Cherishing Coastal Heritage

Can our past teach us how climate change will affect our future?

Discovering how archaeology at the edge of Wales is being affected by climate change.

Around our coastal edges is a wealth of heritage - hillforts, shipwrecks, and places steeped in myth and legend.  However, as global temperatures and sea levels rise, these archaeological sites are at risk of being lost forever.  This week Caroline Evans joins a walk to explore archaeological sites along the Pembrokeshire coastline - including a shipwreck and two prehistoric promontory forts! The event is organised by CHERISH - a project, that brings together archaeologists and scientists, to examine the effects of our changing weather patterns on coastal and maritime heritage in Wales and Ireland.
