The Pilgrims have arrived in America but they are still stuck on board the cramped ship until the winter has passed.

Matthew and Ben are building a house on the land by day. Elizabeth is beginning to show.

When the house is finally finished they leave the ship ready to begin their new lives.

Then the snows begin to melt, the valley floods and Elizabeth breaks the news of her baby to her father.

Adrian Bean's gripping story about one family's journey into the unknown.

Made to mark the 400th anniversary of the sailing of the Mayflower.
