Here s when the Colchester episode of River Hunters is airing on TV

Exciting finds from this episode include a short barrelled Carbine gun which was commonly used by the Cavalry in the 1600s and a horse stirrup which is believed to be from the siege due to it’s age and position on the river bank. A spokeswoman for the show said Colchester became embroiled in the better and brutal English Civil War in 1648. She added: As royalist supporters retreated inside the city walls, the parliamentarians surrounded the city, cut off escape routes and began to hammer the town with cannon and musket fire. An epic showdown lasted eleven weeks. With the River Colne situated on the outskirts of the old city walls, it’s prime hunting ground for siege relics, as the team head to the rural margins of the city to search a crossing that was used by fleeing royalist soldiers attempting to escape.
