The Buried Roman Mining Town Hidden Under North Wales | Time Team | Odyssey
The team descend on the village of Ffrith in North Wales to discover if it is built on the remains of a Roman mining town. The main street runs along the route of Offa's Dyke. The dig involves excavating two gardens and the playing field, but the team are frustrated in their attempts to find a Roman bath house. The team are joined by archaeologist Chris Martin and historian David Mason.

You've made my afternoons after a long day so much better. Having consistent, high quality uploads of these documentaries is one of the highlights of my evenings. Channels like yours abolish the need for cable. Keep up the good work.
whatever rages me up in this world, in the endless huge internet no matter what topic it is - an episode of TimeTeam calms me down.everytime.
I know how Phil felt when he came upon those bricks in his way. I was living in a rented apartment at the back of a storage warehouse that had a small yard. I decided to put in a garden. My shovel only went down 3 inches and hit bricks. The entire yard was paved with them! I found out it used to be the parking area for warehouse office workers and I was living in their old offices.
Phil makes everything better
Thank you Time Team for making this possible by dedicating your time and your efforts in educating us. I love your show.

Continue to find more Roman artifacts. I'm so intrigued by Roman history. Good luck to all and stay safe
It would be great to see what they do to clean up the mess they make especially the back gardens of peoples houses.
No shops and two pubs. Phil's kind of town.
Who dug the original trench in the 1960's? I'm sure the senior archaeologists are no longer alive, but they probably had some assistants who are alive. You should have had them come and give first hand accounts of their dig...
Nice video about archeologists activities to finding bathrooms in Roman umpire decades. What hard work thanks for share

Time team....assemble. I don't recall if they ever had a dig, that the Roman stuff was pure stuff found in soil trucked in as fill.
I went to see this, it was amazing!
For people working amongst a lot of dirt.. They look very clean in the hole s they are digging 😅
Very interesting I sure would like to know the outcome.🤗
Thanks, 😉

The real question is why would they build it underground? The mysteries of the ancients.

Mole houses. Back then all the moles had humans build underground walls for them. Like planet of the apes except with moles.

LOL thanks, you made me laugh with that one
Given that mineworkers in the Imperial Roman period were more than likely slaves, often sentenced to the mines, I'd not really expect any permanent structures...like the poor people sentenced to the mines, the buildings would have probably been disposable.
When you have two walls come together in a j hook. Is that because they started both walls at the same time, and found when they got to the corner that they didn't line up?
Time Team must love destroying gardens/backyards in order to save ancient relics of any civilization from being lost and forgotten.
Couldn’t Phil wash his hands before sitting down for a drink?
They should've done their excavations on a day when it wasn't raining in Wales. They might've had to wait a few years, but it would've been easier.

Still want to know what Helen was drinking.
How rude. Someone built a village on a village.
Well, some days, you eat the bear, & some days, the bear eats you.
I really like this show. Enjoy seeing the history unearthed. What does bother me though, is how close these people get when talking with one another. Like right in each other's face. It makes me so uncomfortable.

I do believe the Time Team production company puts everything back, unless some further archeology is desired. They would not make much support for their films if they destroyed everything and left.

If that was on Phil Harding, it probably had other utility. He's eccentric and would likely find it humorous to leave people confused. When he cares at all.
