Leicester is home to more than 190 parks, community gardens, local nature reserves and green open spaces, but beneath their lawns and trees lies a remarkable hidden past.
Join archaeologist Mathew Morris to explore the unseen heritage of the city’s green spaces.
From Bronze Age bog bodies and Anglo-Saxon burials to a lost medieval abbey, Georgian county parks and forgotten air‑raid shelters, these everyday places conceal some of the city’s most fascinating archaeology, protected for centuries from urban development.
