Norfolk treasure hunters discover more than 6,500 items in just one year
A senior archeologist says Norfolk is a hot spot for treasure hunters, after a bumper year which saw a Medieval chandelier and Bronze Age sword discovered. New research has revealed 120 items of treasure were discovered across the UK daily during the past 12 months, with Nelson’s county unearthing a seventh of those finds. Norfolk has been dubbed the best place for aspiring treasure hunters, with more than 6,500 items discovered by metals detectors since June 2019.
