When workers lifted floorboards to repair the joists of a 500-year-old historic home in England, they inadvertently revealed a once-in-a-lifetime discovery.
Under the attic floor of Oxburgh Hall, a moated manor house in Norfolk, were pieces of Elizabethan-era textiles and the relics of centuries-old Catholic books, which were likely hidden by the owners following Elizabeth I’s outlawing of the religion in 1558.
