Dom and Will are off on a road trip across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland fixing historical treasures and precious objects that can’t be brought to the barn.



Season 1 - Episode 8 - Wiltshire - Restoring an RAF Memorial







In this episode, the experts lend their skills to a community project, hear the story behind a new treasure to be repaired and visit a local crafting hero.



The boys answer a distress call from Swindon, where a plane-shaped bench paying tribute to the town’s aviation history is no longer fit to fly. A local woodworking group have taken on the task of fixing it, but they’re in need of some assistance from master carpenter Will.



Meanwhile, Dom meets Tulsi, who has a Hindu holy scripture passed down from her grandmother that’s now so fragile it can’t be opened without further damage. It will take every trick in the book if paper conservator Angie is to get this beloved tome back to a state where the family can use it once again.



One of the great joys of leaving the barn is the chance for our experts to meet some of the passionate makers around the country keeping heritage crafts alive. And few are as passionate as Chris, who is buzzing to teach Will all about the traditional way of making skeps, surprisingly strong, traditional bee hives made out of willow.
