Breckland

Overview

Ray visits one of the country's least known habitats - the Breckland in East Anglia. The area has the hottest summers and coldest winters in the country, and is home to an abundance of exciting fauna including brown hares, the rare stone curlew and the noisy pool frog - which until recently was extinct in this country. Ray ventures below ground to explore an ancient flint mine where he discovers a red deer antler that has been there since the Stone Age.
