The remains of a monk from the 1200s has been uncovered in the Vale of Glamorgan as the cliffs are eroded into the sea.
Mandy Ewington spotted the two femurs clearly sticking out of the cliff at Monkash, when she was out walking in the area according to ITV News.
Previous archaeological digs have found the area to be a burial ground for Cistercian monks during the Middle Ages, but the recent storms that have battered the UK coastline have revealed the bones to the elements.
