Sutton Hoo Special Event (12A Live)

Saturday 24 May 20259:30am

Screening of a Time Team Special, The Sutton Hoo Ship – Rebuilding a Legend, followed by a fascinating Question & Answer session with Helen Geake (Time Team) and Martin Carver (Emeritus Professor of Archaeology at the University of York).


We're delighted to share a brand new Time Team Special film 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...
