Britain's What's On Event Guide
Treasures Unearthed 2024
Metal detecting enthusiasts from across the region will descend on Chester Cathedral on 27th July for the “Treasures Unearthed Exhibition 2024” – an exhibition of metal detecting discoveries.
National Council for Metal Detecting affiliated clubs from the Northwest area will be setting up their stalls to show off some of their most precious and interesting finds at this one-day event.
Visitors can also bring along any unidentified or interesting finds themselves, as the Portable Antiquities Scheme’s Finds Liaison Officers will also be on hand to give advice and to identify and record finds.
The Northwest Group Chairman and Co-organiser Dave Edwards said: “It should be a great day out. We’ve had tremendous support from clubs from throughout the region and it’s a great venue, full of history in its own right”
“The Club showcase theme of “Clothes Fasteners Through the Ages” should also provide some interesting exhibits, as it was thought this would make a great theme for a club showcase, as most detectorists have found clothes fasteners from all periods in pursuit of their hobby.
Also, in attendance will be, the NCMD stand, manned by Alan Tamblyn and Dave Crisp along with members of the Wirhalh Skip Felagr re-enactment Group. As always Unearthed UK will provide the trade stands offering tips, advice, and some great bargains.
Refreshments will be available at the venue throughout the day.
