Is There A Saxon Hall Under This Man's Living Room? | Time Team | Timeline

- Digging up fields and car parks and back gardens is all very well, but how could Time Team pass up a chance to dig up a living room? The manor house in Nassington was purchased in a derelict state, and while restoring it, several massive post holes were investigated that are of a size and spacing to be a Saxon great hall.

“This is a listed house. All these tiles will have to be put back in place. “ Cut to Bridget smashing tile with a sledge hammer. Lol.
Hilarious!
Planting tulips. "Roman villa". Digging for water pipe "Dammit, ANOTHER Saxon hall". Trip over shoelaces. "Stone age burial mound". At this rate I'll never get anything done around here !
That "SARS quarantine" comment threw me for a second.
Yes back then it was a light hearted joke. Now a reality.
How lucky are the people who get to live in this building. So much awesome in one place.
The dead butterfly being mentioned twice made me laugh out loud hahahaha
Next time on Time Team: "Is There An Ancient, Lost Marks & Spencer Under Mrs. Twiggly's Strawberry Patch?"
Am i the only one who cringed when they started breaking up that tile floor?
They had to Karen
Or else they wouldn't know what is under their
@SEAN PETAIA oof another Karen
3:33 "But this is a listed house, and the tiles must go back as we found them"
9:59
Yeah, what happened to that? Now I shall have to watch this episode in full!
Patch that with some grout
Just open up the Creation Kit & move the house model over.
Karen
Alt F10? Or clr alt delete. Lol
Me: "It's not even 2 minutes in, surely they're not going to rip the fl---they're ripping the floor up."
Every tile to be put back as it was except the few smashed with a pickaxe
I have never wanted to murder a musician more than when the torture started at 21:35
And this was a LISTED house!
Great history lesson 💕
Thank you so much for sharing with us 🔦🎻🎼🏆🍾🥂🍹🥮🍤🍒🥑🥭🍓🍇🌈🍀🌼
Wisely, Mick had a party that week-end ^^
Just have a series where you dig up under peoples houses then bail on them whether or not you find anything.
00:01 “we’re digging up this family’s kitchen to see if there’s a medieval forge underneath...”
59:00 “nope! Well goodnight everybody!”
“But what about our kitchen?!”
“...Goodnight everybody!” *scarpers*
Another fascinating video. Thank you!
Nice opinel phil!
I suppose that Knút Sveinsson (Knud 2 "den Store") is more known in Scandinavia
What's the benefit to the landowner if something of historical importance is found? Many of the landowners seem so keen to have the team work on their property. I don't know about the UK, but here in Canada we'd be slapped with so many restrictions that it would make it almost impossible to do anything to the property without costing a fortune.
One day he will escape from the circle of Stonehenge.
The real question is why they would choose a residential area for their hall.
The better question is why is the show,which ain’t an American production,the best reality show there was.
@@anti-Russia-sigma I think you answered your own question. =)

@@anti-Russia-sigma I'm American, and I agree with you. England has the most interesting history on the planet and Time Team finds the truth with the best research skills and personalities out there, including their guests, such as Dr. Lipscomb. Been researching my roots there for years. :)
IF ANY PLACE IS OLD ENOUGH IT'S BUILT ON SOMETHING
Exactly so. Previous great resets of history. Old World been demolished one by one. JonLevi videos
Wouldn't you love to see the repair of the house and lawns? Do they save the sod? Do they walk away? Who repaired the house?
Loved this one ty

. hi and i.
Nice video.
I'm going to take a wild guess and say NO. Otherwise the title would say "Saxon Hoard FOUND under..." Why not?
Music is (30%) too loud and totally unappropriate ! Pls solve this for next episodes...
Three days? 44:16. Yep. Sneaky bugger.
Sir Tony Robinson: "Today on Time Team we'll be digging beneath this Elizabethan hall to find a 'turnip in the country.'"
They are gonna regrets they made such a poor dust wall,
Looks like a very nice place. If it were mine I wouldn’t want to tear it apart just to unearth an old ruin.
I wouldn't, either. What are they thinking?
Specially to find Saxon stuff because they tend not to find anything.
Maybe the homeowner wanted to refloor and dig a pool for the eventual sale of the home. To save on cost, write it off, and possibly skirt around historical site laws he called the time team to make it possible?
@@andreamarshall911 I mean it seems like they have a small private museum (see 6:50) so I think they just really like history.
Agreed. If I want to see an old ruin in my home I just look in the mirror.
Lots of work done w
If we want a Saxon Hall under our house in the New World we have to build it our self.
44:12 timber beam & earth infill, or half-timber. :)
Spare you time, this all about a hull in the ground 🥱
i didnt know James May is now working on stones and soil...
All that for a couple shards of old pottery??
who cuts the grass at stonehenge?
owner wanted a new floor
an english show with an english guy wearing a T shirt from.....UMASS?!?!?!?!
sorry, I mean THE MOST ENGLISH SHOW EVER....WITH BALDRICK!
I did a double take on the UMASS tee shirt!
If this was Knut is house, why do you call it Anglo-Saxon?
He is not an Angel nor a Saxon...
Its a time period in britain...
Why in the world would the homeowners let Time Team destroy an irreplaceable tile floor to look for stains in the dirt.
Because it isn't irreplaceable, there are industries in the U.K. dedicated to making replacement parts for old buildings, using the same techniques and materials as they did for the originals, so when parts need replaced they are replaced with parts that might as well be original. So those ones that got broken can be replaced with pretty much identical tiles. It isn't just tiles either, it's everything from roof beams to columns to floor and roof tiles, to the chains and other fasteners used. As long as they made a genuine attempt to preserve as many as possible the floor would still be considered original.
Hurt a lil watchin it.
Especially when the narrator says “like other Saxon halls nearby.” If I were the homeowner I would be like, “umm can’t you just go look at the other ones?”
Definitely not irreplaceable - reclaimed Victorian quarry tiles are easily available and not expensive.
I'm going to invade it
What a bust nothing to see really.
Seems like a lot of digging and conjecture, like usual.
Do you know what was under that clown Gacy's living room?
Mandy vs naomi
If I had been the steward/ custodian/owner of that wonderful old house time team would have been told to shove off in no uncertain terms. A new layer of concrete can be laid down but that tile is scrap!!!
They called them.
Shove off? They were given permission hahaha. Calm down
Just hire the cheapest contractor you can find to put down some nice linoleum.
The property owners contact Time Team, not the other way round.
@@UncommonSense-wm5fd It's a Listed building which doesn't mean it belongs to the crown.
No Helen, no upvote. 😕
True, but Carenza lights up any episode she's in.
Pretty sure you aren't supposed to hop the cordons and walk around stone henge like that.
Pottery guy had a serious bad attitude, he needs to go and take useless carenza with him
Oh for fox sake! ALL civilisations have done this! This entire show (no offense, Tony) is a heap of stupid hyperbole. And why in the did anyone in their right mind allow the destruction of this magnificent 'house' to even be considered?! I really wish I knew who wrote Tony's script. :( "So, we've got two buildings, we've got an older one ... and then a later one..."
