Time Team

Tockenham, Wiltshire - The Lost Villa (2x3)

Data emisji: Sty 22, 1995

The Time Team visit the picturesque village of Tockenham, deep in the heart of the ancient Wiltshire countryside. Despite the fact that there are no Roman remains in Tockenham, the village's 15th century church, St Giles, has a small pagan Roman statue embedded in one of its outer walls. The Time Team have just three days to solve this riddle. If there is no evidence of Roman settlement, where did the Roman statue come from? Is the church on an earlier Roman site and does it have ancient ceremonial significance?
