Time Team S12E13 - Animal Farm - Hanslope, Milton Keynes

Episode Overview

Time Team embarks on an intriguing quest in Northamptonshire, sparked by a peculiar horse bit, some upscale artifacts, and intricately carved stonework, all pointing to a possible Norman hunting lodge. However, as the excavation progresses, the grand stone walls begin to lose their grandeur, shrinking under the careful scrutiny of the diggers. The presence of buildings in this area, typically safeguarded by the Norman elite, raises questions. Could the Domesday Book provide insights? It appears this location was once teeming with pigs—might the Team have stumbled upon one of the earliest factory farms?
