I did correct the previous link, but someone in their infinite wisdom, thought to delete it.
It is available on "icWales"

I posted the article in full in post #1 .
Seems you can't please anyone at anytime.

I see my sig has gone too

Now the programme has been shown, I assume it's safe to post this link ?

The correspondent for the Western Mail is a bit adrift though, "Aptly, the Saxon hunting lodge they found was uncovered in a corner of south-east Monmouthshire....." Which hunting lodge was that then? I swear when I watched the programme they only found a small sherd of pottery, not an entire lodge. And, nit picking, but Portskewett is in a corner of Gwent, not Monmouthshire.

OK,OK, so it is Monmouthshire! I was born in (the original) Monmouthshire and then they redrew it all and called it Gwent. And now it's a hodgepodge mess and I refuse to change again so still put my adress as being Gwent. Gah! But they still didn't find the hunting lodge!
