Time Team Season 16 Episode 5
Time Team visits the Yorkshire Dales to investigate the Risehill camp settlement, inhabited by the Victorian railway navvies during the construction of the Settle-to-Carlisle railway
On a wind- and rain-swept Yorkshire moor – ‘the most exposed site Time Team has ever dug on,’ according to Tony Robinson – lie the remains of a settlement built by a tough, nomadic community that existed on the very edge of society.
