It is written in the article that "during the Mesolithic period, the sea level was much lower – it was possible to walk from France to England", which implies that it was possible to do so at the time of the burial (~6700 before present), but although sea levels were lower, by that time the Channel had opened enough so that it wasn't possible to walk from France to England, hence I'd suggest removing this sentence from the article. 2A04:CEC0:11CF:1C79:0:47:1FF:1801 (talk) 11:42, 12 May 2024 (UTC)Reply
