The Staffordshire Hoard is the largest hoard of Anglo-Saxon gold and silver metalwork yet found. Discovered in a field near Lichfield, in Staffordshire July 2009, it consists of more than 1,500 items that are nearly all martial in character. This world famous discovery will change our understanding of the 7th and 8th Centuries of the Anglo-Saxon period. Partners including the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery, Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery, Staffordshire and Stoke Councils, University of Birmingham and English Heritage have worked together to ensure the Staffordshire Hoard collection stays together and remains in the Midlands. 80 artefacts from the Staffordshire Hoard will now be on display permanently at the Potteries Museum and Art Gallery, based in Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent, with further exhibitions planned for the future.
