You may be a metal detectorist, fieldwalker or mudlark, or just someone digging in the garden. We can examine your finds, as long as they are portable (something you can carry) and have been found, rather than purchased.Appointments are 20 minutes and we can:Take in objects for identifying and recordingIn some cases, 'spot-record' a maximum of 5 itemsReturn objects that we have borrowedProvide information on recording with the Portable Antiquities SchemeWe also have a few 5 minute pick-up only slots.Please label your finds with the findspot (National Grid Reference or What3Words), date of discovery, and any relevant reference numbers. In most cases, it is best to bring them in a small, clear box or bag, such as a crystal or takeaway style box or a gripseal or sandwich bag.If we take in an object for recording, we will give you a 'pink slip' that acts as a receipt, and return it after three months. In a small number of cases, we might advise you that an object needs to be considered under the Treasure Act. If so, we can explain this process and answer any questions.If you are collecting finds, you must bring either the pink slip we gave you when we took them in, or official photo ID. We will not return finds without seeing one of these. If you do not have either, please contact us at least a week before the event so we can discuss a solution.You can find out more about the Portable Antiquities Scheme at finds.org.uk.For accessibility and parking, please see the Lancashire Archives website. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/preston/lancashire-archives-finds-day/100001985361858764 - **Event Categories**: - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: Preston - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Lancashire Archives - **lat**: 53.75824470000001 - **long**: -2.7113788 - **full address**: Lancashire Archives, Bow Lane, Preston, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Lancashire Archives Finds Day - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/7ac90d040cda0f13a703bc09c12d7dbcf59cf4a0a7a09f92193f1d41758ae3b7-rimg-w1200-h857-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1774133169 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Lancashire Archives Finds Day being held? - **A:** Lancashire Archives Finds Day takes place on Sat, 13 Jun, 2026 at 11:00 am to Sat, 13 Jun, 2026 at 02:00 pm at Lancashire Archives, Bow Lane, Preston, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Lancashire Archives Finds Day? - **A:** Lancashire Archives Finds Day is organized by Finds Liaison Officer for Lancashire and Cumbria. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
