Villa Daisy
THE LAND ROVERS: A HISTORY HUNTING PODCASTEpisode 13. Villa DaisyWe've been away for a while, even though we are trying to release an episode every 2 weeks - but it's for a very good reason!We've been out in one of George's favourite fields - home to a previously unknown Roman Villa, and one that we've had to wait a year to get back on. Could it be linked to Britain's largest Claudian treasure, the Helmingham Hoard? Who lived there? What did they leave for the boys to unearth? And it could it be the heart of a wider Roman settlement? All we'll say is... the answers to all of those questions are very exciting.To never miss an episode, please follow and subscribe on your favourite podcast platform.And to see images and videos of everything discussed and discovered, please follow us across our socials:Instagram: @thelandroverspodcastFacebook & YouTube: The Land Rovers: A History Hunting PodcastAlso - we now have a website!

A podcast about hunting for history, lost treasure and ordinary people discovering extraordinary objects.When it comes to unearthing history George Ridgway and Paul Jacobs have the pedigree.Well, George does.He discovered Britain's largest Claudian hoard stuffed full of gold and silver Roman and Iron Age coins.Paul found some rusty nails and a podcasting buddy.Join George, Paul, and one slightly unreliable Land Rover, as they search the Suffolk landscape for clues to our past.Along the way they'll detect with the finders of some of Britain's greatest treasures, and meet people who hunt for history in unique and brilliant ways.But it's about more than just treasure.This is a podcast about friendship and finding peace in the landscape, about understanding our place in time, and about eternal optimism, patience and romance.It's about the power of a pint after a day in our gorgeous countryside.But if you want a simple way to describe it to your mates, just tell them it's about two blokes, passionate about history, bombing around in a battered old Landy, trying to understand the landscape they love.
