The Norfolk Broads

Season 1 Episode 2 of 4

Archaeologist Ben Robinson flies over the Norfolk Broads where aerial photographs have discovered 945 previously unknown ancient sites, many of which are making historians rethink the area. The fate of the Roman town of Caistor St Edmund has puzzled archaeologists for decades. It has long been a mystery why the centre never became a modern town. Now archaeologists have discovered a key piece of evidence. And near Ormesby the first proof of Bronze Age settlement in the East of England has been revealed

The Flying Archaeologist airs on BBC Four HD at 7:30 PM, Tuesday 24 September. (Subtitles.)
