Ben Robinson makes an amazing discovery at Norfolk鈥檚 impressive Holkham estate - its lost medieval village, seen for the first time since its disappearance some 200 years ago.
The current village was once owned by Thomas William Coke, known as Coke of Norfolk, who was one of the great farming reformers of his time, instrumental in the agricultural revolution. Ben explores its oldest building, the Ancient House, as well as Holkham鈥檚 beautiful stately home and the Great Barn, whose sheep shearing events are credited as the forerunner to today鈥檚 country shows.
