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. They unearthed weights, buckles, coins and even Roman brooches the last time they were here (episode 18), so what's waiting under the clay this time?

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…

King Rædwald’s River

The river Deben is one of Suffolk’s ancient meandering rivers, carving its way through the landscape like a great scar.

At one end - Rendlesham and Sutton Hoo, the ancient palace and burial site of the Anglo-Saxon ruler King Readwald.
At the other - the rural settlements of Debenham, Easton, Cretingham, which is where the boys have got permission to strap on their waders and go exploring.

They soon discover that Cretingham reflects the river itself - on the surface, beautiful.
Under the surface - ancient, mysterious and dark…
