More images from the series of treasure chests located around Kings Reach in Biggleswade. The project was commissioned by HAPPEN through Bedfordshire Rural Communities Charity (BRCC).
Each chest contains elements, objects and links to Biggleswade's past and present day heritage. Brussels Sprouts, Tractors, Bicycle parts, Coenwulf Coins and a Community Chest with objects made by local residents during initial community consultation phase have been placed around the new development of Kings Reach. Also as part of the project a number of Coenwulf Coins have been located on or next to public footpaths around the area.
