More treasure was discovered in Norfolk in 2022 than any other county, according to new figures.

Metal detectorists reported 95 finds in the county compared with 83 in Hampshire and 81 in Kent.

The British Museum, which runs the Portable Antiquity Scheme (PAS), said 2022 was a "record-breaking" year for reported finds.
