S12E10 The Puzzle Of Picket's Farm - South Perrott, Dorset
The Time Team travels to South Perrott in Dorset, drawn by the fascinating find of Roman brooches and coins in a hillside field. They anticipate uncovering a Roman Temple, but their investigation begins poorly when they discover only medieval pottery and no architectural remnants. Despite the initial setbacks, it becomes clear that something significant has occurred in this field, though not as they expected. As they dig deeper, the trenches reveal intriguing artifacts from a different time altogether. Could they have discovered a Stone Age burial site that has been revered for millennia, even into the Roman era? Prehistory expert Miles Russell shares insights into the Bronze Age elements uncovered.
