In this episode of Digging for Britain, archaeologists uncover remarkable Roman history across the UK. From Hadrian's Wall to Vindolanda Fort, they explore ancient military roads, forts, and a wellpreserved Roman village. Notable finds include a rare glass bead, a Roman soldier's helmet, and a silver coin dating back to 222 AD. At Uden Villa, a grim discovery of 97 infant burials suggests a dark past, possibly linked to a brothel. The episode also explores the construction of a new highway, offering a final glimpse at Iron Age settlements before they are covered forever.
