COMING SOON! | Sutton Hoo Season 2
Time Team Returns to Sutton Hoo!
It’s not often that we return to a site for a second season of digging, but we all know just how special Sutton Hoo is!
During the summer of 2025, we returned to this incredible site for our second season of excavation. Over the past two years, we’ve been investigating the early Anglo-Saxon cemetery and exploring the origins of one of Britain’s most extraordinary archaeological sites.
With test pits in River View and trenches in Garden Field, we certainly had our work cut out for us!
We can’t wait to share this fantastic project with you. The first episode will be available on Patreon, early and ad-free, on 7th November at 7pm GMT HERE.
We're delighted to share the trailer for our second season of excavations at Sutton Hoo!
There's plenty to look forward to as the team return to investigate the mysteries of this remarkable site. From piecing together and dating the Bromeswell Bucket and its associated finds, to opening new trenches in Garden Field and uncovering more cremation burials.
The team also continue their search for inhumation burials, with one particularly intriguing discovery in Garden Field leading to some unexpected developments. Meanwhile, over in Riverview, further geophysics and excavation explore the mysterious boat-shaped anomaly, while our Test Pit volunteers delve into the early medieval and prehistoric origins of settlement at Sutton Hoo.
As always, projects like these simply wouldn't be possible without your support. A huge thank you to everyone who makes it possible to keep digging, discovering and sharing these stories. You're part of the Team!
The first episode will then be released to the general public on YouTube 14th November at 7pm GMT, with new episodes following weekly as we take you through our four-week excavation, right up to the finale on 5th December.
That means plenty of brand-new Time Team archaeology to look forward to over the coming weeks! Be sure to subscribe for free to Time Team Official YouTube channel so as not to miss any new releases.
Thank you for being part of the Time Team community. We can’t wait for you to join us back in the trenches at Sutton Hoo and discover what we uncovered!
