Person
Robert Macleod lives on the remote Scottish coastline and has a passionate interest in the Viking age. His inspiration comes from an journal belonging to his grandfather Tom Macleod, documenting the discovery of long forgotten Viking relics. Tom has traced these treasures to a Viking burial site, which has been fully excavated to reveal fragments of a boat and remains of a once great Viking noble.
