The Roman River

When the boys get invited to walk the newly ploughed land at the mighty Roman fort Combretovium, they jump at the chance. It is George’s birthday after all, this is something he’s wished for, and what they discover littering the landscape is incredible.

Georgian Secrets

With Suffolk full of golden stubble, the boys head back to the site of a Medieval market which has already revealed stunning glimpses of its long and bustling past.

One discovery they don't have to go digging for - a local eccentric antiquarian’s diaries, dusted off and brought along, offering tantalising new clues about the land, from strange finds and forgotten folklore to tales of peculiar Georgian remedies…

A Pilgrim's Treasure

We're now releasing the podcast weekly, it's the big 4-0 (40th episode) and we're celebrating in style - with one of our best finds ever!

The boys fire up the Landy and head to new fields in a small rural community where memory and story run deep.
Here, the landscape has been farmed the same way for 1,000 years, and after sifting through old maps and records they set out to discover whether the clay cradles evidence of the village’s haunting past - from Roman burials to the Black Death.

And incredibly, IT DOES. Strap in for an episode where a dream find is unearthed…
