Discover History Beneath Your Feet
The South Manchester Metal Detecting Club is a friendly and passionate community of metal detecting enthusiasts based in the heart of South Manchester.
Whether you're completely new to the hobby or a seasoned detectorist, our club offers a welcoming space to learn, explore, and share in the excitement of uncovering hidden treasures beneath the surface.
We organise regular club digs across Greater Manchester, Cheshire, and the surrounding countryside, giving members exclusive access to a variety of landscapes rich in history. From Roman coins and medieval artefacts to forgotten relics of recent centuries, you never know what you might find on our permissioned sites.
Our club provides a safe and responsible environment for metal detecting. We promote best practices, follow all national detecting guidelines, and are committed to the respectful treatment of land, history, and heritage. We work closely with local landowners and the Portable Antiquities Scheme to ensure finds are reported appropriately and ethically.
