The Lost Scottish City Of Roxburgh | Time Team (2021x44)

Air date: Apr 13, 2021

Five-hundred years ago, a major city occupied what is now a large and empty field in the Scottish Borders. Founded by a king as a hub for international trade, Roxburgh was, along with Edinburgh, Stirling and Berwick, one of the four great centres of medieval Scotland. While the other three became thriving cities, Roxburgh simply vanished. Tony and the team have a unique chance to uncover whatever remains under the pasture.
