When did the first farmers arrive in Britain?

Correct Answer: 6,000 years ago

The first farmers arrived in Britain about 6,000 years ago (around 4000 BC). They came from south-east Europe and brought with them farming techniques, domesticated animals, and crop seeds.

This marked the transition from the Mesolithic (Middle Stone Age) to the Neolithic (New Stone Age) period.
