The remains of a Medieval priest who died 700 years ago today have | :00:10. | :00:15. | |
Archaeologists have been analysing remains found at Thornton Abbey. | :00:16. | :00:21. | |
The priest's gravestone was found near the altar of the fourteenth | :00:22. | :00:24. | |
century monastery hospital, and it even revealed his name, | :00:25. | :00:28. | |
A 14th century monastery in rural Lincolnshire with hidden secrets. | :00:29. | :00:38. | |
For the last six years archaeologists from the University | :00:39. | :00:41. | |
of Sheffield have been slowly unveiling its past. | :00:42. | :00:45. | |
Most recently the remains of a Medieval priest. | :00:46. | :00:49. | |
As archaeologists, we find skeletal remains quite often, | :00:50. | :00:58. | |
but to actually find someone whose name you know and to know the date | :00:59. | :01:01. | |
of when they died and their position within society is very rare. | :01:02. | :01:06. | |
This place was built in 1193 and quickly became one | :01:07. | :01:09. | |
of the richest religious houses in England. | :01:10. | :01:12. | |
But that does not mean that Richard's life was easy. | :01:13. | :01:15. | |
He lived in a time which was known as the Great Famine, | :01:16. | :01:18. | |
and evidence from his skeleton suggests he had anything | :01:19. | :01:20. | |
A slight dent in his skull shows he suffered violent trauma, | :01:21. | :01:26. | |
and a close look at his teeth reveal a period of stress or malnutrition. | :01:27. | :01:31. | |
He was around 35 years old when he died. | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
It's important because it gives us a little snapshot of the past | :01:35. | :01:37. | |
As archaeologists, the past is often nameless and faceless. | :01:38. | :01:42. | |
Here we can look at an individual, a named individual, we can find | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
out about their lives, and it kind of puts a bit of a | :01:47. | :01:49. | |
human face on a century that is, you know, a long time ago. | :01:50. | :01:54. | |
This find is part of a bigger project. | :01:55. | :01:56. | |
Last year 48 skeletons, many of them children, | :01:57. | :01:58. | |
When the research is complete, Richard's remains will be laid | :01:59. | :02:04. | |
to rest at a church in Barton-on-Humber. | :02:05. | :02:13. | |
A man has been arrested on suspicion of assault after another man | :02:14. | :02:16. | |
was found with serious injuries outside a bar in Driffield. | :02:17. | :02:19. | |
Police were called to Market Walk by ambulance staff early this morning. | :02:20. | :02:23. | |
The 24-year-old victim was taken to Hull Royal Infirmary | :02:24. | :02:27. | |
with head injuries, which aren't life-threatening. | :02:28. | :02:29. | |
Police are questioning a 39-year-old man. | :02:30. | :02:34. | |
British Steel in Scunthorpe are taking on more staff to create | :02:35. | :02:37. | |
20 new trainees are starting at the plant in conjunction | :02:38. | :02:42. | |
with North Lindsey College who will help them complete | :02:43. | :02:45. | |
The company recently announced that it had ended 2016 in profit | :02:46. | :02:51. | |
and had taken on more than 350 new employees | :02:52. | :02:54. | |
Bikers have delivered Easter chocolate to children | :02:55. | :03:01. | |
in a North Lincolnshire hospital for the ninth year in a row. | :03:02. | :03:04. | |
140 members of the Scunny Bikers rode together to Scunthorpe General. | :03:05. | :03:08. | |
They unloaded a cargo of chocolate eggs and toys donated | :03:09. | :03:12. | |
They'll be handed out to patients on the children's ward. | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
I'm just absolutely amazed with today's turnout, 140 bikes, | :03:19. | :03:21. | |
a massive van full of toys, lots of local businesses | :03:22. | :03:25. | |
It brightens up the children's days, and the families, really. | :03:26. | :03:30. | |
Obviously, being in hospital is very stressful at the best of times, | :03:31. | :03:33. | |
so having all of these donated to the ward is just fantastic. | :03:34. | :03:38. | |
In football, Scunthorpe United have secured a place | :03:39. | :03:41. | |
They beat Chesterfield 3-1 at Glanford Park. | :03:42. | :03:46. | |
An own goal got them started, before Ivan Toney scored twice. | :03:47. | :03:51. | |
In League Two, Grimsby Town lost 2-1 at Cheltenham. | :03:52. | :03:54. | |
James Berrett scored for the Mariners after they fell | :03:55. | :03:57. | |
behind but Gavin Gunning was sent off to end their comeback hopes. | :03:58. | :04:03. | |
In the National League, Lincoln City went to Gateshead today | :04:04. | :04:06. | |
with hopes of securing their place in the Football League next season. | :04:07. | :04:10. | |
Our Sports Reporter Simon Clark was there to see if they could do it. | :04:11. | :04:15. | |
Well, here at Gateshead, we saw an extraordinary end | :04:16. | :04:18. | |
to what was a fairly rotten football game, and it puts Lincoln City | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
within one victory of a return to the Football League. | :04:23. | :04:28. | |
Did not get off to the best of starts, this challenge | :04:29. | :04:31. | |
from Sean Raggett resulted in a penalty kick to the home side, | :04:32. | :04:34. | |
Gateshead, which was coolly slotted away. | :04:35. | :04:37. | |
Lincoln City then huffed and puffed and worked their way back | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
into the game, but it wasn't until the 90th minute | :04:41. | :04:43. | |
This time, it was Matt Rhead that stepped up, this time it was 1-1. | :04:44. | :04:50. | |
And I'm sure everybody connected with Lincoln City | :04:51. | :04:53. | |
would have settled for that, but minutes later, Nathan Arnold | :04:54. | :04:57. | |
received this ball, turned, and that is as good a finish | :04:58. | :05:00. | |
as you will see at this level of football. | :05:01. | :05:03. | |
No doubt about it, Lincoln City winning, and the fans and manager | :05:04. | :05:07. | |
Just attitude, they never die, they just keep going and going. | :05:08. | :05:14. | |
It happens all the time, close to the end again, but we did it. | :05:15. | :05:21. | |
Another three points, one step closer! | :05:22. | :05:23. | |
None of us really believed it, we had sort of given up hope, but, | :05:24. | :05:28. | |
I thought we showed huge determination, huge grit, | :05:29. | :05:33. | |
a real resilience about us, and we never know when we are | :05:34. | :05:37. | |
beaten, we play to the end, it is a never say die attitude, | :05:38. | :05:40. | |
and it has been all of those things that allowed us to find a way today. | :05:41. | :05:44. | |
So, Lincoln City will play Macclesfield on Saturday | :05:45. | :05:46. | |
on their home ground knowing a victory will take them | :05:47. | :05:48. | |
But at the other end of the table, we have to say farewell | :05:49. | :05:54. | |
Their brave attempt at staying in the National League | :05:55. | :05:58. | |
They lost at Barrow, but everybody that has followed | :05:59. | :06:03. | |
North Ferriby this year know that they have been commendable in | :06:04. | :06:07. | |
So, Ferriby are relegated, and Lincoln City are | :06:08. | :06:12. | |
In today's rugby league, Hull FC returned to winning ways | :06:13. | :06:20. | |
And in the Championship, Hull Kingston Rovers | :06:21. | :06:25. | |
lost their first match of the season. | :06:26. | :06:28. | |
A much-changed Robins team lost 14-6 at Toulouse. | :06:29. | :06:35. | |
We do have showers in the forecast pushing down from the north. | :06:36. | :06:43. | |
Some of those will be quite heavy for a time, | :06:44. | :06:46. | |
but once they clear away, clear skies behind and colder air. | :06:47. | :06:48. | |
These are the temperatures in towns and cities, | :06:49. | :06:50. | |
but in the countryside, we could well see it getting down | :06:51. | :06:54. | |
to around -2 to -4 C, so gardeners take note. | :06:55. | :06:57. | |
Tuesday morning starts off on a dry, bright note, one or two showers | :06:58. | :07:01. | |
pushing in from the coast, but essentially it | :07:02. | :07:04. | |
The sunshine turning a little bit hazy by the time we get | :07:05. | :07:08. | |
We are looking at temperatures getting to a high | :07:09. | :07:12. | |
As we go through the rest of the week, then, it looks like it | :07:13. | :07:17. | |
Temperatures creeping up by the time we get to Thursday. | :07:18. | :07:26. | |
That's all from us, we're back at 10:20pm. | :07:27. | :07:44. | |
Hopefully you managed to enjoy some good weather this | :07:45. | :07:45. |
