Famous works by Charles Darwin have gone online for the first time - all 90,000 pages of them.

The Darwin Online Project based in Cambridge has amassed the private manuscripts, notes and sketches from the world renowned scientist after years of painstaking collection.

It is the largest Darwin catalogue ever published.

It includes the first draft of his theory of evolution and hand written letters from his wife Emma.

Charles Darwin moved into the borough in 1942 and lived in Down House, Downe, for 40 years.

It was from his study at the house that Darwin worked on his scientific theories that culminated in his controversial book, On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection.
