Historian Guy de la Bedoyere enlists the team to explore the secluded remnants of a bath-house found by Gerald Brodribb deep within Sussex's woodlands. Gerald has crafted a scale model of the structure, and Guy elaborates on its ties to the Roman navy. Following Gerald's demonstration of dowsing, the team's initial goal is to clear the area before they begin excavating. Phil, along with ancient technology specialist Jake Keen and blacksmith Reg Miles, tries his hand at smelting iron using a traditional furnace, while archaeometallurgist Gerry McDonnell joins the effort.
