The Beau Street Hoard

Beau Street Hoard Road Show rolled into Combe Hay on Saturday, 17,500 silver Roman coins dating from between 32 BC and 274 AD were found under the Beau Street building (top left)  about  490 ft from the town's Roman Baths during conversion from a school to a hotel.

 

 Thing for all ages to do including striking your own coin.

 

And illustrated lectures

There was a chance to handle this incredible Hoard, the 5th largest found in the UK.

A resin cast of the fourth bag before the coins were conserved.

Emily's the Best Tea shop in Devizes

Visited Devizes yesterday and were looking around for lunch, we usually stop a local and ask where they eat (we’ve found too many nice looking pubs who microwave everything including the beer). And found Emily’s Tea Room, It looks like your granny opened it 50 years ago though it’s only been a restaurant for three years, great lunch at the right price served by what could be the next great comedy double act. Don’t forget TripAdvisor for a properreview.
