Sutton Hoo Ship: Rebuilding a Legend (Part 1) with Tony Robinson (2024)

We're delighted to present a brand new Time Team Special presented by Sir Tony Robinson!

In 1939, on the eve of war, a huge ship burial was discovered at Sutton Hoo, Suffolk, laden with golden treasures, befitting Anglo-Saxon royalty. Now, a team of shipwrights and volunteers at The Longshed in Woodbridge are building a scale reconstruction, as acccurately as possible, using traditional methods.

Over the last few years, Time Team has been following the incredible building project, gradually watching the ship take shape. Join us for the story so far...
