From Neolithic burial mounds, to those Iron Age Parisi buried with chalk figures on the Wolds, followed closely by the Roman road side graves found at (including) York, Ilkley and Donaster. Next we have the Anglo-Saxon graves and follow the body of St Cuthbert that travelled around Yorkshire during the Viking invasions. The Vikings left behind hog back tombs (Dewsbury, Helmsley, Lythe, Ilkley etc). It includes film inside the Yorkshire Museum, York. Then inside the rebuilt churches of graves of Lords of the Manor, Templar tombs and the supposed burial site of Robin Hood. We finish with the fine alabaster tombs at Harewood and Sheriff Hutton and Henry VIII creating the Church of England.
