Helen Geake and Martyn Williams bring you more from the world of archaeology. In this episode of the podcast Derek Pitman shares some of the results from a geophysical survey of the Mapperton Estate. Could the grainy blobs on the data be a lost Roman building?
As Suzannah Lipscomb takes you behind the scenes at Broughton Castle, our chief metal detectorist, Keith Westcott, reveals how he discovered a huge Roman villa nearby.
Mark Bayley from The Genealogist demonstrates how you can use maps to research your family tree.
