The Weekend Wanderers Detecting Club arranges metal detecting days out for people from all walks of life. This friendly club is perfect for novices as well as experienced  detectorists and is easy to join. So, why not explore our website & find out more about what we do, where we dig & see what we have found!

Silver open work brooch, jewels in intersections, possibly early 17th century found in 2003

We normally meet up on Sundays & occasionally on Saturdays but also hold regular Thursday digs too. Our members come from all over the UK  to our popular digs although most of the land that we search is in the counties of Hampshire, Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, Oxfordshire and Surrey.

Detecting usually starts at 9.30 am and continues until dusk & costs just �10 on the day with no charge for children under twelve

Rare 1500 BC. Bronze Age solid gold triple ring found in Stone, Buckinghamshire, March 2007 by long standing member Richard

Subject to favourable weather, dry parking and harvesting, our well organised detecting days out continue nearly all year round.

We excel at obtaining permission to hold digs for the club on new country estates &  farms. As a Weekend Wanderer member you could also benefit from our extensive knowledge of local history and our expertise in researching maps & archaeological documents.
