Funeral of West Runton elephant's finder
The funeral of the retired teacher who discovered the prehistoric West Runton elephant was held close to where he made his find on the Norfolk coast.
Harold Hems was buried at West Runton where in 1990 he found the almost complete skeleton of the woolly mammoth in a cliff on the beach. When a full excavation began five years later the importance of his discovery soon became apparent.
It is the most entire example of its species anywhere in the world.
