The Land Rovers: A History Hunting Podcast
The Land Rovers
22 episodes
1 week ago

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.

THE LAND ROVERS: A HISTORY HUNTING PODCAST


Episode 10. Castle on the Hill.


George and Paul are back in Suffolk for a special milestone: Episode 10!


And to mark this auspicious occasion?

Well, for Paul, there’s only one place to visit - his first ever field where he once proudly sent George dozens (and dozens) of rusty nail photos. George, still traumatised, is praying history doesn’t repeat itself.


But could there have been something incredible hiding down there all this time?


With a Roman road slicing through the landscape — and a crucial section mysteriously missing — the boys are on a mission to track it down, and what’s more, local folklore hints at a buried Roman treasure on a nearby hill, and not only do they think they’ve found the spot… they’ve got permission to dig it.


Just down the road? Ed Sheeran’s castle on the hill: the iconic Framlingham Castle, home to a unique local museum who invite the pair in for a private look at a genuine Roman treasure discovered on the land they’re searching.


Could this be a clue to what lies beneath their feet?
