of Britain. OK, you're not going to come across any fossils or spectacular
scenery but Birmingham has a natural history as interesting as anywhere
else in the UK.
On this Walk Through Time in the heart of the city, you'll
find out about Birmingham's past as a forest, a swamp and underneath an
ice sheet hundreds of metres thick. Then you'll walk right up to the present

industry. Keep your eyes peeled and you might just see some rare birds!
