River Hunters - Season 1, Episode 05: Hadrian's Wall - River Eden and Carlisle

Episode five sees Rick and Beau head to Britain's most spectacular and best-preserved Roman frontier – Hadrian's wall, where they scour the River Eden and River Carlisle which flow along its path looking for lost evidence from the might of 2nd century Rome and the invaders' brutal occupation of Britain. Beginning their search at the carefully protected site of Chester's Roman Fort, the team conduct the first ever archeological search of the neighbouring waterway and proceed to Carlisle, once a bustling metropolis of Roman activity. In Carlisle, Rick and Beau check out the recently discovered and excavated Roman bath house that has never been searched. With a host of great finds, chief among them a Roman coin from the House of Constantine c.330-340, the team discover signs of life from this great empire that helped shape much of modern life.
