Sorry, We’re A Bit Tied Up Today

Telling Wight From Wrong

Archaeologists have found a piece of string that is 8,000 years old. The four-and-a-half inch long string was made from tough stems of honeysuckle, nettles or wild clematis twisted together. Marine archaeologists discovered it when they found a flooded Stone Age settlement just off the coast of the Isle of Wight.
