The Portable Antiquities Scheme

The Portable Antiquities Scheme

The Portable Antiquities Scheme is a voluntary scheme to record archaeological objects found by members of the public in England and Wales. Every year many thousands of objects are discovered, many of these by metal-detector users, but also by people whilst out walking, gardening or going about their daily work. Such discoveries offer an important source for understanding our past.

The scheme has Finds Liason Officers located around the country and our nearest one is based at the Yorkshire Museum. Our local officer is
