Treat yourself to an elegant Afternoon Tea accompanied by a talk or tour from one of our curatorial team.
Thursday 12 September 2024 –Â Treasure
Thursday 12th September Join Arwen Wood, Finds Liaison Officer for Buckinghamshire for Portable Antiquities Scheme. The Portable Antiquities Scheme (PAS) is a national scheme run through the British Museum, and the Buckinghamshire post is based at Discover Bucks Museum. The scheme records individual objects found by members of the public, and has included some of the objects in our galleries, including the Lenborough Hoard. The talk will look at how the Scheme works, give a brief overview of treasure process and focus on some highlights of the exciting finds that have been found, and that represent the people of our past. We’ll also look at what to do when you find the pot of gold, and handle some archaeological finds.
The talk will last approx. 30 minutes and there will be plenty of opportunity to ask questions after as you relax with your cream tea!
