Thousands of years ago Britain was covered by swamps and forests. There weren’t any roads, only tracks made by the hunters. • When people settled in villages, they made paths from hard earth from one village to another so they could trade with each others. • The oldest road we know about in Britain is near the River Brue in the south west. This six-thousand-year old walkway was discovered in 1970 and is thought to come from an era when farming had just begun, around 4,000BC. • We can still see remnants of these early kinds of roads – often as ancient pathways. Quite often they follow the tops of hills and are called Ridgeways. • There are still many around that you can walk along! • Fun Kids is a children's radio station in the UK!
