The Team tries to locate one of the rarest of archaeological sites – an Anglo Saxon royal complex. Aerial photos suggest this empty Oxfordshire field could have been the home of royalty over a thousand years ago, but is it ever that simple? The Team travel to Sutton Coutenay (actually Drayton, Oxfordshire) in Oxfordshire to excavate an old Saxon settlement. The area is known from photos of crop markings, and there is a suspicion the holy grail of archeology may be found, a royal Saxon Hall. |
