Lancaster City Museums are working on a project to display the Silverdale Hoard at the Maritime Museum, as part of their centenary next year.
The Silverdale Hoard was found more than a decade ago, back in 2011.
At the time, the hoard was one of the largest Viking-Age hoards to be found in this country with over 200 silver items, including 10 complete arm rings, 2 finger rings, 14 silver ingots and 27 Anglo-Saxon, Viking and Arabic coins.
Lancaster City Museums are working with local partners to try and secure funding to stage an exhibition, events and activities based around not only the Silverdale Viking Age hoard, but hoards from Warton, Halton Moor, Cuerdale and Furness.
As plans for the exhibition and events are developed the team would are keen to know what people would most like to see and experience.
The current plan is to display the Viking Age hoards at the Maritime Museum and then, following this, the Silverdale Hoard in Silverdale at the Library. This builds upon a project that had to be postponed back in 2020 due to the pandemic.
A survey has been launched for anyone interested in supporting this project and can be completed online at www.keepconnected.lancaster.gov.uk/s-h
Deadline for completion is this Sunday, September 18.
