Scotland has a lost archaeological history - the ruins of thousands of townships and buildings which have never been recorded on any map, yet which tell the tale of life in a period of dramatic change. Mark Stephen follows attempts to uncover those stories before the buildings fade from the landscape.

Along the shores of Loch Tay are the remains of byrehouses, the sort of buildings in which the majority of Scots once lived. Mark hears the story of how these homes came to be abandoned, as a rural way of life disappeared.
