I like how Phil would "teach" local residents on whats going on.

Loved it when they came opon the petrol tank and the way Tony sniffed that bit of pipe. It had me in stitches. Priceless. Love these early episodes in particular due esp to Mick's influence. This series is a real blessing. People who are missing or ignoring them don't know what they're missing or ignoring!

Was born and raised on this street. It just goes to show how places change over 20 years. Anita’s husband sadly passed as has Mr Horn the gentleman whose door they knocked on.

Lost in Woods As kids we would often find scrap metal and occasionally coins. Unfortunately no one knew about the soho mint back then. So the elder (dumb) kids would say it’s just an Irish penny. Shame really. I plan on one day doing my own excavation or go round with a metal detector to see what I find. Here’s hoping for a treasure chest!

Interesting the way they switch between feet, yards and meters - an archaeological clue that precisely dates this show. And Sue Francis...woah!

Time Team is the best show that I found in years.

Anita (hope I spelled her name correctly) and her curry are the real stars of this episode!

While Industrial Archaeology isn't my favorite thing, this episode is a beautiful example of surveying, document searching, keyhole digging, and recreating history. I love it (around 14:10) when Tony asks Stewart how he figured out the maps were wrong.... "ummm, surveying" - that is, I did the job the map maker's didn't do right.

@WeirdHarold49

Early steam engines, such as Watt & Bolton engines didn't use steam pressure, they condense the steam (at atmospheric pressure) and let the pressure differential push the piston down. It is the same principle as filling a metal drum with steam, sealing it, and spraying it with cold water to make it collapse.
