'''Request:'''

: It would be great to have a map showing Southern Britain during the early Pleistocene, when south-east Britain was still joined to the European continent, showing the ancient coastlines and rivers overlaid on a modern outline map, so that the ___location of the recently discovered [[Happisburgh footprints]] can be put in context. The type of map I have in mind is like that shown on the British Museum website [http://www.britishmuseum.org/research/research_projects/all_current_projects/featured_project_happisburgh/early_britain_happisburgh.aspx here], and should be fairly easy to create (but beyond my skills). I have been unable to find anything appropriate on Commons, but pleased let me know if such a map already exists there.

'''Graphist opinion(s):'''

{{I take}} I've been reading about these footprints in the press and it's a shame that they will soon be destroyed by the sea. Lets immortalise them with a Wikipedia map.[[User:Philg88|<span style="color:#646464; font-weight:bold; font-size:11px; border:2px solid #FFCC33;background-color:#cde0fc; padding: 2px 10px;">►&nbsp;Philg88&nbsp;◄</span>]] ^{[[File:star.png|11px]][[User_talk:Philg88|talk]]} 16:39, 9 February 2014 (UTC)

{{Done}} Please comment on the above. [[User:Philg88|<span style="color:#646464; font-weight:bold; font-size:11px; border:2px solid #FFCC33;background-color:#cde0fc; padding: 2px 10px;">►&nbsp;Philg88&nbsp;◄</span>]] ^{[[File:star.png|11px]][[User_talk:Philg88|talk]]} 08:41, 10 February 2014 (UTC)

{{resolved|1=That's absolutely perfect, and will really improve the article -- many thanks for creating such a great map so quickly (and also thanks for adding the new section to the article). [[User:BabelStone|BabelStone]] ([[User talk:BabelStone|talk]]) 12:09, 10 February 2014 (UTC)}}
