S16E05 Blood, Sweat and Beers - Rise Hill, Cumbria

2009-02-01

Time Team journeys to the Yorkshire Dales to explore the Risehill camp, where Victorian railway navvies lived while building the Settle-to-Carlisle railway. Amidst the harsh winds and rain on the Yorkshire moors—described by Tony Robinson as the most exposed site the team has ever excavated—lie the remnants of a settlement created by a resilient, nomadic group that thrived on the fringes of society.
