@Napoleon Hercules is there a specific app to buy to watch British tv? I would love to watch all of the digging for Britain series or Britain’s lost battlefields
@@oliviagreen7423 I’m so with you. I’ve literally quit watching TV. I haven’t turned on my tv in probably a couple of months, and it’s been like that for a few years now. The only thing I watch is The Peaky Blinders. I use to love when the history channel use to do actual history like this. Edit: This show has grabbed me from the get go, and I’ve always been a Huge fan of Tony the leader’s work!!
Funny because it frustrates me how much over the top drame there is in this. I'm actually screaming at them for how they stretch things out acting like they dont know wat is coming next when they clearly do. Its all bad acting and drama. Just with correct info along the way
I just discovered Time Team about a year ago. Working away from home during the pandemic and desperate for something really good to watch. This is such a great series! Most of the US shows are too sensationalized. Very well done!!
As an American I'm always in awe of the antiquity of these finds. I majored in Anthropology and archeology fascinates me, but I didn't have the patience for digs so I appreciate others doing the work so I can enjoy the results. Thanks for posting!
Im from US too and feel like I was robbed of this as a kid. The show has been around for decades and PBS should've tried to get it added to the programming. I wanted to be an archaeologist and a paelentologist (because just one wasn't enough in my head lol) and this show would've been a big plus.
Well done. I liked everything about this episode. The owners are great sports and just the type of people to take on such a castle. The great room, (storage, stable) has so much potential. Miss you, Mick. Thanks for the posting.
I too find that those Owners truly must be the most awesome, fun, couple, with abundant Passions in History, Architecture, and the Living of Life!!!* These are such positive attributes and those don't require financial success, *"rather, they are what Creates Financial Successes",* and make for Best Fun Friends! ...(They manage their Ego with Conscious Thoughts + applied Higher Mind, aka it is know as having a "Mature, Mind and Emotional Development") 🔑
Phil is so sweet I don't care if he talks about cooing noises, any one else in this day and age would have been drug before a magistrate.. Phil is one of a kind, he is loved and will be missed almost to the point of grieving.
So fascinating that you can dig anywhere in the U.K. and find incredible history everywhere. For instance, the Prittelwell Prince was a fluke of a find before road work needed to be performed.
I imagine the same is true for places like China, France, and various other places. They have a very long history so their land must be filled with history, but we rarely hear about it. Possibly because of the language barrier in other countries.
My first take looking at the castle and situation, is that it was once a larger structure, but over time it was abandoned and some of it went into ruin. Then someone cleared the other part, and made a small "house" and then moved on, when this family finally picked it up in 2007 again.
It is a LOT OF WORK... 😬 We took over a house/estate that has been in my husbands family since 1684, and it is beautiful, preserved fireplaces etc but it is a pain to maintain it all. However, it is worth it, to feel the wings of history is unbeatable (but expensive, we are not rich, just ordinary people)
@@NickanM Thank you for choosing to work to keep and maintain it. My early 19th century farmhouse takes a lot of work and money to keep up, so I'm sure your home is that much more difficult; but it always makes me feel good to find someone choosing preservation over destruction. I also quite like your comment about feeling "the wings of history!"
@Napoleon Hercules CONGRATULATIONS! _There is a atmosphere in old buildings. I suppose that you plan to stay long time in it? If so, it's worth the money...._ 😉👍 For me, it's about preserving history for future generations too.
When these folks get together, just awesome. My ancestors were ftom Scotland, i being from Nova Scotia, sja new Scotland. One of the earliest graveyards/centuries first burial 1799.Blessings you all. Question, never keep this straight,a Church, a cemetery or graveyard.
Many Scots left the US during the revolution because they'd been through so much before in Scotland. That's why they headed to nova Scotia. What I had read anyway 😊
All these small finds are so cool to identify history. My cousin lives on a known Arawak (Taino) midden in south-central Jamaica. A few years back, my uncle dug around a little further and discovered a different style of pottery related to an earlier, less known group of people known only as “Red Ware People” that so far has generated little interest from researchers. Hopefully more interest (and funds) will be generated in the future...
Hello, Tony! You are as entertaining as ever! I love England the most and then Scotland and Wales! Would love to visit extensively one day! Interesting revelation at the end! Thank you and cheers!
I absolutely love this channel!! Thank you for all of the great videos ☺❤ When Tony got excited about the pottery found in the potato field so did I lol
For us in the USA it’s flint arrow heads and flint spear heads it makes all the old stores genuine. I can’t fathom finding something that could be dated to over six hundred years ago. To be able pinpoint someone’s 30th great grandfather or grand mother.
@@bulletproofpepper2 when I was a teenager my Mom and step Dad lived on a ranch in the Texas Hill Country and there was an Indian burial mound there. We didn't touch it out of respect but we would find all kinds of cool stuff in the river and around the ranch
This is so interesting and a bit of a coincidence as last week I was looking on Google Earth the British Isles. I was looking for castles or at least their remnants. I didn't go far enough inland so I missed Upton. Just scouring the coasts you know. I always end up where my father was born and raised, near Fanore, County Clare, Eire. My Dad's family land extends into the Burren. There are the ruins of a castle on his land that I saw back in 1976 when we visited from Iowa, US. I know nothing at all about it's history and would be fascinated to learn anything about it. My sister did a genealogy of my Dad's side, back to the 1600's. Interestingly, we come from royalty! Bunratty was my ancestor's castle for a period of time, up until the damn O'Brien's kicked them out, lol. I'm sure no laughing matter back then. Uh, my metal detector yearns for Irish dirt but I don't see a trip abroad in my future. sigh
Great episode. I've been to this area many times, Pembroke, Carmarthen, and it really is chock full of castles. Kidwelly Castle is a great place to visit also, though it's mostly ruins.
🙏😄 How amazing, resurrecting history like that!! 🤔 @15:55, They probably weren't able to see this at the time from their ground-level view, but there's absolutely no wear pattern at all on the bottom side of those drawbridge chain holes. More evidence to the fact they were simply for decoration and looks.
The drawbridge mechanism utilized pulleys within the masonry holes, so the chains didn't actually contact the bottom of the holes. You can see the visualization of the mechanism at 30:16 in the video.
Read Wikipedia. The original builder/owner is cemented in the home chapel next to his wife. Both were entombed wearing body armor. He was a Knights Templar Norman from France who emigrated to escape the wrath of the Catholic Church
This looks alot like my ancestor castle, chapel, Croft Castle in Hereforeshire, Eng. I am also related to the Uptons in Alabama, US., where I am from. The original part of it was built in 1055.
I enjoy the history and really surprised that there is no paper trail anywhere. The English and area are known for there ledgers and historic logs of ownership of everything
Also in order to have stained glass windows the “chapel”would have had to have a SUBSTANTIAL means of income because stained glass back then was expensive af and you didn’t see it in you average everyday run of the mill chapel
I feel heartbroken for the Malefants (and anyone else who died prior to the whole hullabaloo with henry viii)--they would've been having Masses said for the repose of their souls, and then suddenly in the 1500s it just...stops. Makes one wonder what their reactions would've been if they'd been alive at that time.
i never understood this girl's dream of "im going to be a princess, and live in a castle". very interesting in daylight, very imposing buildings! but from the point when it gets dark, no thank you!
Im pretty sure the drawbridge was real. It didnt cross a moat, but rather a natural stream that used to be there. Can see it clearly on the lydar scan at 13:30

This is a case of a Victorian lord or his wife finding a semi ruined building next to a Chapel and completely redoing it to his own whim. Seems to have happened a ton throughout different periods of UK history.
as a South African history like this proves to me how civilized people were. if you were to study struggling nations you will see they also have almost no history.
An extremely beautifully made documentary, thank you! About the chapel layout: there was neither a separate room for sacred objects and church linen nor an integral room for leaving your weapons before entering. The latter fact was the more surprising one. In all Swedish medieval churches I can remember there is an arms room at the right hand side entrance to the church, and a symmetrically constructed space for the clergymen at the left hand side entrance. The churches are not rectangular but form a cross. How common are arms rooms in Welsh and English churches? Did the Normans build churches more like the Swedes did?
It was 300 years after the normans. The man under the efigee is the 15 or 20x great grandkid of the one who fought with william. By that time chapels like this were just small private places for the lord and his retinue to take communion and hear mass. No idea if the Normans built as Swedes and it changed or if the ancient Danes built theirs different than ancient Swedes to begin with, or how that was impacted by French influences but that's how it was in Britain.
I would think you would look for wear marks on the portals above where the drawbridge draw works would have been routed. If not, it was for show not functionality.
Interesting and informative, discovery so much history that can easily be lost - wonderful. The only distraction for me, is watching, with some surprise as people walked through this private house still wearing their dirty outside shoes - no respect whatsoever - not something anyone does where I live !!!!!
