If you are accessing your Ntlworld account via VM webmail look for a set of folders headed Gmail.  Emails received prior to the switch from the Google app version of VM Mail to the current version were moved to those folders.

I tried that but nothing before 2015.  I can't see an archive folder either.

In that case, unless you have an offline backup of those emails they are likely to be lost. 

VM do not keep a backup for you, that is up to you to maintain.

In webmail, if you cannot see the [Gmail] folder:

• select ≡ > Settings > ▸ Email
• move to foot of page and select Change IMAP subscriptions
• select ▸ until all folder views are expanded
• confirm all folder are selected (☑)
• select Save
• select Email located top left and then Ctrl + Shift + R if selected folders are not shown

Webmail archiving is a manual process but selected message(s) can be unintentionally archived by pressing 'A' key.

Archived email can be found under Archive folder, as highlighted below:
