In this special episode of YeOldeGuide, we delve into the fascinating history of England's forgotten settlements. Despite being a small and crowded island, some important towns have faded into obscurity or vanished entirely. Where were these missing settlements, and why did they disappear?

Join us as we welcome historian Daniel Gooch back to the studio for an insightful discussion on the Lost Cities of England. Our discussion includes:

Dunwich: Once a thriving settlement with a population of over 3000, Dunwich now has only 84 residents. Coastal erosion has dramatically reshaped this town, making it a shadow of its former self.

Old Sarum: Now an English Heritage site, Old Sarum was once a significant settlement. Discover its history and why it became virtually non-existent.

Silchester: With a current population of 921, Silchester has Roman roots and significant walls

Winchelsea: Although not entirely lost, Winchelsea never grew to the aspirations of its planners. Today it offers a great opportunity to see a planned town layout.

Join us for an enjoyable exploration of these intriguing locations. Are these settlements truly lost, or do they still hold a place in England's historical tapestry? Tune in to find out!
