Tony Robinson and the team travel to the picturesque expanses of the Suffolk coast to investigate a very special back garden. When the new owners of a house in Blythburgh investigated their potting shed they were shocked to discover a cupboard full of human skulls. Could these remains have something to do with what's lurking amongst the shrubs and trees: the superb ruins of a medieval priory that has lain hidden for years?

Welcome to Chronicle; your home for all things medieval history! With documentaries covering everything from the collapse of the Roman Empire to the beginnings of the Renaissance, from Hastings to Charlemagne, we'll be exploring everything the Middle Ages have to offer.

Fascinating. I’d love to know what they end up doing with the garden.

I love all of you, you're brilliant, but Matt is my favorite - I like the things he finds, and he is like a little kid at Christmas when he discovers things.

As an English woman, living in the US I thank you for bringing home to me every time I watch these videos.

this documentary was a wild ride for the whole hour...I've never watched even a YouTube Poop with a more disparate story and confusing timeline, but just as entertaining! Loved it!

Neat episode, I had never seen this one before. Grateful they got back to Saxon times; frustrated they couldn’t work out the dimensions of the church.

It's so interesting to go back so far in history whereas in Canada this sort of history is basically nonexistent 😊

It would have been a shame to go through 3 days of digging just to find out that it was a Victorian folly.

How tall were the skeletons? Looks like a rather large individual?

I think he means Monument Valley, not Death Valley.
