The Land Rovers: A History Hunting Podcast
Behind the Church
Episode 30. Behind the Church
To celebrate the big 3-0 (episodes, not the number of stones Paul pockets every hunt), the boys return to land where they discovered a stunning silver coin of Severus Alexander in Episode 2.
But a chance meeting with the farmer sends them somewhere new - land next to a medieval church that’s never been detected.
Expect mysterious finds, Suffolk in spring, and George revealing a recent discovery that leaves Paul speechless.
