Discover what life in Ilford would have been like some 180,000 years ago with mammoths, rhinoceros, giant deer and elephants roaming the land. Hundreds of fossilised bones were discovered in the town 150 years ago and have made their way into displays at both the Natural History Museum and the British Geological Survey. This exhibition sees some of the bones return to Ilford, giving visitors the chance to learn more about the Ice Age, why the animals became extinct and the Victorian team who uncovered the prehistoric artefacts.
