St Giles’ Files Ep.12:

Unseen things in unseen places

In this episode Stephen talks through some unseen objects- unseen whether due to them being hidden, or due to them being overlooked. He starts by introducing an unseen window, then moves to some other St Giles’ related things, and concludes with a discussion on how old doesn’t necessarily mean good when it comes to history.
