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.

Weaver's Treasure

THE LAND ROVERS: A HISTORY HUNTING PODCAST


Episode 20. Weaver's Treasure


George takes Paul to a secret spot in the Fynn Valley where, in 1938, a huge hoard of late Roman coins was unearthed, treasure buried at the very moment the Empire was collapsing into chaos.


The glorious River Fynn is a picture-postcard part of the Suffolk landscape, but also hides dark and mysterious past โ€” one marked by ancient mutilations and whispered legends.


So when the opportunity arises to investigate a freshly dredged stretch of the river, the boys canโ€™t resist. What begins as a simple search for history soon takes a chilling turn โ€” revealing something ghostly, unexpected, and utterly unique beneath the surface.
