Temperatures are soaring across the British Isles. The London Evening Standard has predicted the city's temperature tomorrow has the "possibility of record-breaking heat" at 37C.
As the summer heatwave exceeds recorded temperatures other remarkable things are emerging from prehistory.
In the fields of England and Ireland ghost villages are appearing.
As the usually rain-soaked, green fields dry out and the summer grasses wilt, old streets and walls are becoming visible.
Most remarkable of these is a giant circle which has revealed itself in Ireland's County Meath, near Newgrange.
