Join Professor Danielle Schreve as she delves into how climate change over the last 100,000 years reshaped animal life in northern Europe.
Using evidence from Ice Age caves in the Mendip Hills, this talk links faunal turnover to key moments in Britain’s early human history, from Neanderthals to modern humans.
Booking required, £10 per person.
