Events in 2019

Detectorist Finds, with Dave Walton

Dave is back by popular request. His talk  in 2017 was on the history of British coinage and was illustrated by the coin collection he had built up through metal detecting. This time he will be talking about  other artefacts of interest that he has found, ranging from the Iron Age to the present day, and will be bringing some along to display.
