Tony Robinson and his team head to the Welsh border to locate the long-abandoned Poulton Abbey, which was briefly home to Cistercian monks. Mick is thrilled to delve into his passion for monastic history. Although local archaeologists have uncovered a chapel and numerous other remnants, including human skeletons, the abbey itself remains elusive. As the search continues without any significant breakthroughs, some team members propose a contentious theory. Joining the team are Mike Emery and Alan Wilmshurst from the Poulton Research Project, architectural historian Jonathan Clark, local historian Alan Thacker, and finds expert Debbie Klemperer.
