Finds identification Saturdays

On the 2nd Saturday of every month, the Finds Liaison Officer, will be at Guildford Museum from 11am to 1pm to identify objects brought in by the public.

Visitors are encouraged to bring along items found locally, often while out walking, or while digging in the garden. The Finds Liaison Officer for the Portable Antiquities Scheme, will be able to provide advice on the importance of the find, its conservation and storage and how it relates to the treasure act.

If you have come across an archaeological find whilst out walking or using a metal detector, bring your find along for assessment and find out more about it. Pottery, flints and metalwork are all welcome, however, we do not provide information on fossils. Could that piece of metal provide a clue to Guildford's past? Bring it along and find out.
