Unearth the real story of Sutton Hoo - an expert tour from the National Trust
We’re inviting you behind the scenes at Sutton Hoo, an Anglo-Saxon burial ground in Suffolk that is the focus of the new film "The Dig," out on 29 January on Netflix. Currently the site is only open to local visitors to comply with lockdown restrictions, and Tranmer House, including the holiday apartments, is closed. So we're bringing you this video tour, led by one of our expert archaeologists, Angus Wainwright. You can delve into the history of this haunting 255-acre site, learn how in 1939 the skeleton of its famous ship was excavated, and take a look at the fabulous treasures and gold from the burial chamber. You’ll also get a glimpse into the life of Edith Pretty, the owner of the land, who played a key role in the excavation. Sutton Hoo has been described as Britain's greatest ever archaeological discovery but there's still more to learn about the King who was laid to rest under this mysterious mound.
