Ooh!
And not to forget, that Dover is the oldest British settlement.
I figured this out because Dover is the only part of Britain visible to the Continent.
So the first people to settle in Britain must have arrived at The Waters (Dubra), which became Dover.
I never gave credence to the idea that the people who settled in Cornwall and Ireland arrived there with very small boats 5,000 years ago from Spain (Iberia), rafts on which man, wife and children were embarked, together with food and cattle.
These rafts would have all sunk long before they got anywhere near Cornwall or Ireland.
So they must have come to Dubra first, and then moved on inland, even to Cornwall, Scotland, and from thence to Ireland.
