WELCOME TO THE KENDAL & DISTRICT METAL DETECTING CLUB
We hope you enjoy your visit to our club web site and will re visit often to see what’s new.
The club is a member of the National Council for Metal Detecting, North West Region. Affiliated to the Council for Physical Recreation, recognised by the National farmers Union and the CLA as the voice of responsible detecting (NCMD)
Our members live in North Lancashire, North and South Lakeland, West Cumbria, Whitely Bay, Aberdeen, Alston and Staffordshire, a pretty eclectic group of detecting friends.
The K&DMDC, formally known as The Kendal Metal Detecting Club was formed in October 1993 when the late Eric Bryers held the inaugural meeting at the Cock and Dolphin Public House in Kendal, 28 people attended this meeting with 21 becoming members, all with the interest in discovering the hidden history of South Cumbria and the Lake District.
Since then the club has gone from strength to strength and membership now stands at 55 with more people joining monthly. Since the closure of the Cock and Dolphin regular meetings are now held at The Cross Keys, Milnthorpe on the last Thursday in the month, doors open at 7.30pm and the meeting starts at 8pm, we are a small friendly bunch, visitors and prospective members are always welcome. Any one can join the club, but it is asked that children be accompanied.
