S22 | Dig Watch: Knights Hospitaller Preceptory: Very Important Patrons Tour (Patreon)

We're gradually edging closer to the release of our new Time Team episodes, filmed last September, and premiering in the Spring. For now, let's rewind back to that first dig at the Knights Hospitaller preceptory on the Halston Estate, Shropshire.

During a quick stop en route to the site, Dani bumped into one of our lovely Patreon supporters, Julian. Following this chance encounter, we invited Julian for an entirely impromptu 'Very Important Patron' tour. We showed him around the site, viewed some finds, and even put him through his paces in one of the test-pits. Look carefully at the flag and you might just spot Julian's name in the centre of the sun rays!

Of course, this occasion was a serendipitous moment and, as much as we'd love to, we simply can't invite every single Patreon supporter to a dig. However, we hope you enjoy the experience vicariously through Julian's eyes!
