Episode 28. Back to the Bronze Age

An old map, and shadowy echos of shapes in a new field that runs down to an ancient stream in one direction and a major Roman road in the other. What’s not to love?

Well - the wind, the mud, and the temperature to be honest. But they say perseverance is the secret to all triumphs - and it certainly reveals a few secrets in this episode…

THE LAND ROVERS: A HISTORY HUNTING PODCAST
Episode 27. No Place Like Rome

Getting together for the first time in 2026 is pretty epic for George and Paul - they've got some new land and a new land owner to manage, and it's someone quite close to home... Literally.

It’s George, who has just bought a house close to an amazing Roman site excavated by Basil Brown in 1949.

The signs are good, but what will they uncover in George's back garden?

George and Paul are back at Red House Christmas tree farm still on the trail of those Saxons - and getting tantalisingly close.

Episode 25. Christmas with the Saxons.

In this first Christmas special the boys hit some new land they’ve got permission for - and it doesn’t get any more Christmassy.

Red House Christmas tree farm sits in the heart of an ancient landscape. Saxon ship burials, early medieval villages, and lost windmills dot the landscape, but when they explore a mystery mound they find something totally unexpected, moving and a little more modern.

THE LAND ROVERS: A HISTORY HUNTING PODCAST
Episode 24. Part 2Edge of Empire

This is the second part of our special episode in Holland, meeting and detecting with two amazing guys who discovered the Bunnik hoard.

Autumn 2023. The ancient Roman limes.

Gert-Jan and Reinier were detecting a field they’d had their eyes on for quite some time - with good reason.

One stater became two, became handfuls and handfuls of Roman aurei, denarii, and intriguingly, British Iron-Age staters of Cunobelin. It all sounded a bit familiar so we thought we better make a trip over to Holland to visit them and hear the incredible story.

THANKYOU for being amazing hosts Gert-Jan and Reinier.

And THANKYOU Anton - the archaeologist who helped unearth the hoard.

Episode 22. Bonjour Napoleon.

When you find something cool deep in the mud you’re not just discovering the lost item itself, you’re unearthing stories and mysteries. And then, occasionally, you dig up memories as well.

When the boys hit a field that George hasn’t been to since discovering a second hoard of Roman silver, buried by an Iron Age Briton in response to the Roman invasion, all three possibilities combine.

And, despite discovering several finds of a lifetime in this very field, for George, it’s an unassuming find that suddenly brings it all flooding back.
