What happens when you try to create your own grand design but find a mystery at the heart of your home, and its origins are so unclear that it could either be medieval or Victorian? You call in Time Team to help you work out the answers.
When Steve and Pru Barlow fell in love with pretty Upton Castle in Pembrokeshire they had little idea what they were buying. Acres of overgrown gardens surrounded the building, which looked like a medieval castle at the front and a Victorian mansion at the back.
It was a romantic mystery. Is it part of the network of castles built by Anglo-Norman invaders to defend themselves against Welsh tribes? Or perhaps a Victorian folly?
Two effigies in the castle's chapel may provide a key clue, but are they originals or copies? And the chapel's age and origins are no clearer than the castle's.
Tony and the Team dig trenches as they look for a medieval courtyard, building specialists crawl through the roof, there's digging out front for the remains of a drawbridge, and there's a mound of documents to pore over... and some wet Welsh weather to contend with.
Can the Team determine if Steve and Pru's home really was one of the Anglo-Norman castles built to defend 'Little England beyond Wales' from the locals?

@@allanmerovitz871 Exactly, and from the perspective of a Sociologist, he had a noticeably mild ease in management, yet they all highly respected and liked him. This reflects his balance with self, the harmony achieved when we have self worth, self confidence, and a consistent Character + Personality. (This means he was comfortable in his own skin, this he wasn't bothered by others having their own and variable different perspective. Key benefit and a reflection of a Higher Mind/Mature Mind. None of us are always right and the flexibility found with Mature Minds allows for "new finds/facts" Being accepted and our perspectives having a forward evolving direction. Essential to Academics in Science, History, and Archaeology. I respect and appreciate folks like Mick, for their very balanced in harmony energies, it is also a reflection of a healthy and Mature State of one's Emotional Development.

A most genuine comment and one many of us share. A shame that the "Time Team" Producers missed the opportunity to air in the USA Market, they certainly left a great deal of money on the table, as there's no question "Time Team" would have enjoyed equal success in the USA, and this is obvious through the vast sharing on KZfaq, the number of USA hits, and comments are huge. I enjoy these as if they were current. May Mick Ashton enjoy eternal positive energies., whether in NonPhysical or perhaps in a return to Physical again.

TIME TEAM THERAPY: I haven't seen any comments posted on perhaps one of the best purposes of time team: Viewer Relaxtion Therapy. The reasons it works for me, and why I recommend it to others, is that the show is interesting. It engages your mind and discoveries are made, but it doesn't really matter if they do or not. So, after a stressful day - or before one - it gets your focus off of your problems. That is very healing. And because you learn something, you feel that your time was not wasted, like it would be after a sit-com. (TT's therapeutic aspects were hinted at in the military therapy segment, but I'm referring to its benefit ordinary people.) Over the past year I have sequentially watched all of the Time Team episodes, and enjoy them all. I am very thankful for them and what I have learned - so different than my university archaeology classes, which were more historically based than this show which is excavation based. Having favorite team contributors is natural; but I am sorry to see so many harsh comments about some of the members. The participants have been themselves: they don't need to immitate someone else. They have all added information, perspective, and texture to the series. Each episode was worthwhile, although I too enjoy them more when significant discoveries are made. Dr. Cynthia, MD

Leopararouen There is no consensus about the use of gloves when handling historical documents. The British Library doesn’t make use of them as they consider clean, dry fingers to be much more sensitive to the care needs of the individual documents. Not only that but the cotton in the gloves have their own disadvantages when coming into contact with fragile documents; for example reduced manual dexterity, lifting/dislodging pigments, etc. Maybe worth knowing before calling a degree-laden historian a stupid slag!!

Did anyone else notice that there were at least two (2) things that didn't fit with the guy's conclusion that the storage room floor was at a different level in the past so that it made the fireplace-in-the-wall accessible? First, if the floor had previously been where he said it was, only half of the window at the end would be visible on that floor. Also, there is another fireplace or alcove in a wall that would be below the previous floor and thus, useless. Of course, the window could have been added later, but not the other feature in the wall. My point is that there might be another explanation for what the guy claimed was a fireplace higher on the wall, and he didn't climb up and get close enough to look for another explanation. AND, Lipscomb's 'conclusion' she knew the exact identities of the effigies in the chapel based on such flimsy evidence as the style of their clothes is beyond shoddy! The style of their clothes supports --- but doesn't prove --- who they were. Moreover, nothing was said as to whether anyone had actually looked or 'excavated' in the church to see if the people are identified somewhere. Names might be covered up by newer plaster and/or paint, or previous owners might have moved the "dead people" and the record of who they are would not be near their current location. Anybody look????

I wonder how the daily life at places like this was in it's hayday. Life probably was shite for commoners, but did they laugh and joke around a bit? what about? Did they have some good meals now and then? Like what? Did men guarding this place have other tasks too, and if so, what?

They should start opening a lot of the old tombs in England...think of wealth of knowledge and historical interest if they opened the tombs...Elizabeth, Henry VIII, and others. The addition to our knowledge of those times would be huge. It would be fascinating. No different than excavating the grave of a Saxon, Richard III, or someone who was around in the Medieval era,.i.e all those skeletons excavated in the Crosslink construction. Even King John's tomb was opened.

@@harbourdogNL Actually it is different. On ground still sanctified ecclesiastical law still prevails. The burials you mentioned were in de-sanctified ground or they were in ground that had never been sanctified. To dig in sanctified ground _at all_ requires permission from the relevant _Bishop_ and to dig up a corpse requires an exhumation order from the *Home Office.* The same type of law prevails in many countries.

In a perverted way, I was happy when Time Team concluded after this season. Why? Well, first the changes that were made with inappropriate replacements who never seemed to "fit in" or fill any void. Second, the introduction of totally inappropriate and annoying music caused me to keep lowering the sound and so I could never really know what was being said or learn what was happening.

This one-of-the-last episodes really feels cheap, doesn't it? The credits still list 4 geophysics staff, but almost no geophys was done - why? Why no dendrochronology? No discussions with local historians, almosst no aerial photography, and many of the discussions were awfully vague (the skeleton dated as "pre-castle" - why not cite the actual report?). It's not a terrible episode, but one can really see how much they were trying to save money here.

a) you're not always to have lokal historians that can add something concerning the site, or want to appear on national TV. b) I think lidar is more appropriate here than aerial photography, because of all the trees. c)Geophys is very useful in most of the episodes, and can be used on a big variety of sites. It's important to establish were to dig, espacially if aerial photography isnt that helpful. d) Dendrochronology can only be used if you know in beforehand that you will get good preserved wood. It needs very large pieces of wood, and even then the results have been inconclusive multiple times. Better for long-term digs. e) You can't expect to find and date everything in three days. It's most important to destiguish the chronological order of the artefacts to get a good picture of the site during the time you got. I think it's pretty good for exploratory archeology. The geophys was pretty useful with the lidar and the survey of the inside of the chapel. Although we didn't get the concrete results of the Carbon-dating, I think the site and its phases was dated quite well, especially considering the extent of the damage the Victorians did. don't see where you could have used dendrochronology here.

I wondered about the 3 days as well. These 3 day evaluations are a regular archaeological technique. They are meant mostly to determine the extent and age(s) of a site, how well preserved it is, and to gain a general idea what's there and what it might have looked like. Full-scale digs take months, even years. And, yes, these guys have full-time jobs and budget would be a concern. It creates a framework for the show, i.e., beginning, middle, end. Also, it adds a bit of tension. Will they be able figure it out in time?? Dun, dun, dun, DUN!!!
