Finds Fridays at Stanwick Lakes

Discover more about the objects you’ve found with Northamptonshire’s Finds Liaison Officer, Eleanore Cox.

We’re delighted to host Eleanore from the Northamptonshire Portable Antiquities Scheme for two special FREE drop-in Finds Days:

• Friday 6th March, 10.30am–1.30pm
• Friday 4th September, 10.30am–1.30pm

Whether you’ve uncovered something while out metal detecting, unearthed an interesting object in the garden, or held onto a mysterious family heirloom, bring it along.

The Northamptonshire Finds Liaison Officer (FLO) helps identify and record archaeological finds that are over 300 years old, whether they’ve been discovered in Northamptonshire or elsewhere in the UK. This includes items such as coins, metal objects, jewellery, tools, or any other historic artefacts you may have uncovered.

Eleanore will be available to help identify, record, and share the story behind your finds, contributing to the Portable Antiquities Scheme national project to enhance our understanding of the past.

No booking needed—just pop in with your items and have a chat.

Usual car parking charges apply.
