About Humber Heritage

Humber Heritage Metal Detecting was created to bring together responsible detectorists across Hull and East Yorkshire with a shared interest in local history, heritage, and respectful detecting.

A Responsible Community

Humber Heritage was established to create a welcoming and responsible club environment focused on heritage, community, and respectful land access.

Local Heritage

East Yorkshire and the Humber region contain a rich and varied historical landscape, with centuries of history beneath our fields, farmland, and countryside.

Respect For Landowners

We recognise that detecting permissions rely entirely on trust and responsible behaviour. Respect for landowners, farmland, livestock, and countryside is central to our approach.

Community Focused

Humber Heritage aims to create a relaxed and supportive environment where responsible hobbyists can enjoy detecting, history, and organised club events together.

Responsible Detecting Standards

Responsible detecting and proper historical recording are important parts of the club ethos.

  • Treasure Act compliant reporting
  • Portable Antiquities Scheme awareness
  • Respectful recovery standards
  • Proper hole filling and land care
  • Respect for countryside and rural environments
  • No detecting on scheduled monuments

“The best detecting communities are built on trust, responsible behaviour, and genuine respect for local history.”
