Castle on the Hill

THE LAND ROVERS: A HISTORY HUNTING PODCAST
Episode 10. Castle on the Hill.

George and Paul are back in Suffolk for a special milestone: Episode 10!

And to mark this auspicious occasion?

Well, for Paul, there’s only one place to visit - his first ever field where he once proudly sent George dozens (and dozens) of rusty nail photos. George, still traumatised, is praying history doesn’t repeat itself.

But could there have been something incredible hiding down there all this time?

With a Roman road slicing through the landscape — and a crucial section mysteriously missing — the boys are on a mission to track it down, and what’s more, local folklore hints at a buried Roman treasure on a nearby hill, and not only do they think they’ve found the spot… they’ve got permission to dig it.

Just down the road? Ed Sheeran’s castle on the hill: the iconic Framlingham Castle, home to a unique local museum who invite the pair in for a private look at a genuine Roman treasure discovered on the land they’re searching.

Could this be a clue to what lies beneath their feet?
