"Treasure hunting enthusiasts struck gold at a rally near Wootton Bassett at the weekend.

More than 260 metal detector operators, from all over the country, took to fields in Hook for the rally on Saturday organised by Clive Leavy of Wootton Bassett and District Rotary Club.

The event raised £3,640 towards Rotarian charities and the treasure hunters found a solid gold stater coin dating back to about 100 years BC."
