Time Team S16-E03 The Wedding Present: Scargill, County Durham

Ten years ago two archaeologists got married. The groom bought for his beloved bride a wreck of a building, Scargill Castle, in the remote wilds of County Durham. This decrepit gatehouse and scattering of ruined walls was reputed to have once been a medieval stronghold in a lawless, violent landscape that was fought over for centuries by English and Scottish kings.

    Depending on what business the King needed to transact in these five locations, he wouldn’t necessarily have needed to stay overnight in each location. He might have overnighted in only two or three locations, so could have sent his wardrobe etc on ahead while he diverted to a smaller place that might not have had the facilities to receive him, handed out justice, collected taxes, ensured his place-holders were still loyal and running things his way, and then taken a brisk ride with his guards and officers to whatever castle was prepared to provide banquet fare worthy of the king.

    No offense meant to anyone, but one thing I've noticed is that they seem to not talk to the historians much. They said, "they seem to have gotten better land further south and not done much with this site." Is it possible that the reason they have such huge walls/foundations is that they started to build on the site (which I understand can take decades to complete a large structure) and then acquired Haverah Park which they stated was several days travel south of this site, decided this one was too much trouble to bother with as they now had a better place to spend their money and just stopped work on Scargill "Castle"? I mean it makes more sense to me than going to the expense and difficulty of building twice in the Tudor period on what seems to be an inferior and less desirable property to live when they have one fit for a King. What do you think?

    Easy to see that there are 2 Scargills (and Mick was right from the start of the vid!), and that the couple were fd by a fake statement of the property and its history. The real 1300s-1500s Scargill "castle" is further to the south in the mention of West Riding. This might be the 1000-1300s origins of the Scargills (or original North Riding cum Durham), and kept as their rural retreat, but not worthy of a king's visit.

    scarletfluerr nope. That doesn’t make them doctors. They only received an honorary degree but that means nothing for marketing yourself in the field. An honorary degree is typically just given to someone who has contributed greatly to that specific field. An honorary doctorate just means that they’ve done amazing things for archaeology and showing the entire world what archaeology is about. Time team allowed more people to come to archaeology in the 1990s and 2000s. Now that the show ended, the UK is actually having a shortage of archaeologists (could potentially be caused by the cancellation of the show). That’s why they received their honorary degrees though. Let’s not muddle the titles of those who have a PhD or want to get a PhD (like myself in archaeology) and just say anyone can be called “doctor.”

    Celto Loco I do know several people who are profs at university and they do very well in the paycheque dept simply because they've been at it for years, head up their depts, publish etc.. I remember when they were starting out and poor, but they got there over time. It's what they love. I know that you mean about making less for love though. I've been a corporate person for years, but just got bored with it and am in the process of selling my company. I went back to art school for graphic design and photography, and now will do what I love. It's funny really because my brother did the same thing; was a scientist with his own corporation, finally got bored with it, sold the company and went to art school for fun and is now a painter. Art in any form, is a very peaceful state of being.

    what about the possibility of the Medieval Warm Period and lack of crops to help the decision to move to a better area ?

    I think that’s probable as to why the land stopped being used. The medieval warm period was from the 10th-13th century. So it’s possible they didn’t know how the crops would yield when they tried settling there around the 12th century or so. It really all depends on when they got there and tried to start building. If it was winter then they definitely wouldn’t have known. If it was summer it’s possible they didn’t know YET until the first crops started growing.

    Since all broken pottery, glassware and similar artefacts end up today miles away from their origins, in municipal rubbish dumps, how are archaeologist going to work in the distant future when looking at our present day world? Or is it believed that all knowledge and history of people will be recorded so no need for any of this exploration? In the digital age, the nature of records may well be very ephemeral - temporary in the extreme.

    She's a Saxon specialist, so naturally would defer to others whose speciality is more à propos for digs concerning other eras. But what's your problem? Why the disdainful venom so disproportionate for what cannot be called a purposeful offense? Psychologists have observed (male ones) that many men seem to have difficulty 'hearing' what female voices say. It just doesn't register, as if the sound were cut off between the ear and the brain. Some of them will get a message about something of particular interest to them (sports scores, for example) but not as perfectly as from a male voice. I haven't seen any explanation for this phenomenon. Could this phenomenon apply to you?
