Join Anglophile and former U.K. resident Claire Evans as she tours the country’s most interesting archeological finds.

During a walk on his family’s farm during COVID lockdowns in 2020, a man noticed unusual pottery shards that ultimately led to the excavation of one of the largest, best preserved Roman villa mosaic floors every found in Europe. Jackpot historical finds aren’t uncommon in Britain thanks to its rich history: Viking hordes, Anglo Saxon treasure, and even King Richard III buried under a city parking lot. Join Anglophile and former U.K. resident Claire Evans as she tours the country’s most interesting archeological finds, and learn tips if you’d like to visit them for yourself one day.
