Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During the last ice age, which ended around 10,000 years ago, sea levels were much lower due to water being locked up in glaciers, and Britain was connected to the European continent via a land bridge that spanned the English Channel and the southern North Sea. This land bridge, known as Doggerland, began to submerge around 18,000 years ago as the ice sheets began to melt and sea levels began to rise.
