Archaeologist Ben Robinson reveals the story of the village of Sunderland Point on the north west coast of England.
Our coastal villages are often seen as remote places for retreat and relaxation. However, they have often been on the front line of history - from the arrival of Christianity to battles with neighbours and nature; from slave trading to the birth of modern tourism.
Sunderland Point on the Lancashire coast is cut off twice a day by the tide. It鈥檚 become a haven for wildlife. And yet this was once a busy port,
instrumental in the slave trade and at the forefront of trade in luxury goods which transformed 18th century Britain.
