Episode Forty One - A City Under the Ocean: The Disaster and Afterlife of Dunwich
Manage episode 365468507 series 1496868
Nowhere on the Suffolk Coast holds as much allure for the lover of the strange than the ruins that were Old Dunwich. Once a thriving seaport, and vital to the nation's wellbeing, it tumbled into the sea through bad weather and bad planning. Rumours sprang up that Dunwich did not lie easily though, and some said the bells of the churches under the water still pealed out. It was until recently that science showed the extent of what remained, and came to a shocking conclusion.
