Archaeologist Ben Robinson travels to Cushendall, one of the finest planned Georgian villages in Northern Ireland.
Owned and shaped by a series of owners, but most notably its 19th century merchant landlord, Francis Turnly. A fascinating place where this forward-thinking man hoped to try out his ideas for a new global order – ideas akin to organisations such as the UN and the WHO today. He also built an intriguing, tapered tower, from which he rang a curfew bell to keep his villagers in check.
