Conservation Journal

The Staffordshire Hoard conservation programme, conducted by Birmingham Museums Trust as part of the research project, was completed in 2016. The conservation team was led by Deborah Cane in its initial phases, and then by Pieta Greaves. Many professionals, students and volunteers worked on the programme, which won the Pilgrim Trust Award for Conservation in 2015. During the conservation programme, team members kept a regular blog on this website. In the posts below you can share their discoveries as they made them, and find out more about the techniques they used to investigate the hoard objects.
