Documented folklore from the Club 49 map, told straight and sourced.
The largest Viking silver hoard ever found in Britain, and one of the largest anywhere: in 1840 workmen repairing the bank of the River Ribble in Lancashire dug into a lead chest holding some 8,600 pieces of silver, coins and hacksilver, buried around AD 905, perhaps a war-chest for the reconquest of Dublin. The finders were allowed to keep one coin each; the rest went to the Crown. Most is in the British Museum now. The riverbank is still there.
Cuerdale, on the Ribble (Lancashire, England). Source: The largest Viking silver hoard ever found in Britain, 1840. The Club 49 map pins this legend at its documented country, beside the real mines, active claims, land status and modeled honey holes of the same ground. Open the free map and go stand in the story.
