Time Team S15E09 - Fort of the Earls - Dungannon, Northern Ireland

The team visit Northern Ireland to locate one of the most important sites in Anglo-Irish history - a hilltop castle above the city of Dungannon, home of the powerful O'Neill dynasty, whose story culminates in the hugely significant flight of the Earls. The team are joined by Colm Donnelly, Hiram Morgan, Paul Logue and Jim O'Neill.  A former military compound is between reverting back to a council open space. From illustrations there was a castle here. But where? The adjacent communication mast does not help geophys, nor does military grade concrete covering.
