You just never know when you go out metal detecting what you might come across.
One sunny November day, we were out detecting on what seemed to be a very quiet field, when I heard one of the lads shout I think I've found a fork, I took my head-phones off and walked over to him and was stunned to see that it wasn't actually a fork but a broken Torc. We had actually stumbled across one of the most significant hoards ever found. These are days you dream of, this day it came true. This was now to be called the Wylye Hoard. |
