Hiking
The Hauxley area has been inhabited since ancient times, with Mesolithic settlements and flint tools discovered in the surrounding fields. During Archaeological excavations fascinating findings have emerged, including an ancient peat bed and Neolithic remains. Over time, cliff erosion has gradually revealed a Bronze Age cairn at Low Hauxley, estimated to date back to around 2200 BC. It is believed that the area was completely covered by a tsunami or catastrophic sandstorm approximately 4000 years ago, burying a significant part of the Low Hauxley coastline leading to its abandonment.
