Yesterday we took some of our finds to the local FLO… it was super exciting and we got some of our previous finds back with ids, will do them in a separate post. But it meant we got an afternoon to play in the fields. chuffed to bits with this first find, I know it doesn’t look much but it’s...

Today dawned bright and sunny, so we headed back to the same fields as yesterday, mainly due to the Limited off road capability of my car! 😆 xx The rape crop has failed in these fields so we have them all winter, we have six fields to choose from, and they are just outside a village and have...

Ahh the trials of this sport! Himself‘s truck is stuck in the garage being repaired, so the back up vehicle (my car) was called into service, ut this means no exciting trips off road to hidden fields, so we went back to the fields the crop failed in. We have spent many days in these fields, so...

Today dawned bright and sunny, so after yesterday’s poor effort, himself wanted to go back to the same fields and do better 🙄 xx And he did, bless him, he found this dress fastener (?) my best find was this intricate little button! Then a plain buckle, our first pipe and stem from this area, 2...

Yesterday we had torrential rain here all day, so expectations weren’t high for getting out today, but we gave it a go! Shooting season here so finding a field on Saturday is more tricky, but the sheep have been taken off the Barn field, so we thought we would try there, we spent a lot of time...

So today after a week indoors, we were finally able to head out into the sunshine, well after clearing the frost from the truck! xx So it was off to our old favourite the pond field, I think we spent most of January in these fields.. 😆 we just love them and they did not disappoint me. I got a...

A little Friday night treat for you, today we had a day off and snuck back up to the race course! I just love this field! We won’t be detecting this weekend as we are hosting the Basset Paw-Ty.. so busy prepping tomoz for the show on Sunday! 😆 Let me start you off with this tiny but pretty...

As we only had one detecting day this weekend we decided to go back to the race course field, this field is 42 HA so plenty of room to roam! what can I say… musket balls .. we found 23 today, and 7 bobbin shot, then some splattered balls nd other ammo, lead disk with a stalk on the back, tack...

Today was a bit wild so obviously decided to go to our most open field on top of the hill…. 🙄 buffeted by the wind and rain we still had a great time. This field is the middle area of the old race course and I just love it up here. We have detected in here before but never found the...

Today was a beautiful sunny day, himself decided he wanted to go back to the same fields… the crop has failed so wanted to take advantage of the extra time. First off a tiny Roman Fibula brooch, it is just half an inch big! Then a couple of nice buckles, then a curved patterned piece, then a...

Ahh the best laid plans… so we didn’t get to go to the Roman field, nor did we get a full day… so we went back to yesterdays field and got a few more bits! Now the long wait till next weekend 🫤 xx A spindle whorl, chunky lead weight, pot leg, more bell metal plate bits and the end of a spoon...

Another gorgeous day here.. little misty first thing, but then the sun came out, and we were off… back the the same fields as last week… as these are some of the few fields that don’t have the weekend pheasant shooters roaming around in! 🙄 xx Now grab a brew and get comfy as we got so many...

Another gorgeous day dawns bright and sunny…. 😎 so off we head to the fields, the recently planted seed is beginning to sprouts so our days are numbered here. So many fields we still need to get in, but for now, we are loving these. Let me start you off with a simple but gorgeous little...

Well the heatwave continued so it was hot and sweaty in the fields of England today 😅xx But your intrepid team put the coil to the soil and had another perfect day xx Himself plucked this beauty no idea but looks to have a bust and writing on it which I need to study to see if I can work out...

So after a long hot 4 days of being chained to my desk, we decided it was necessary to get a quick swing in! I wish I could do justice to the sights and smells last night, the temps had dropped and the tractors were working 2 fields over and it was simply perfect, by the time we got back to the...

Ahhh it’s been a long week, but we got back out to play today, and had the best time! 😆 Got to the field, and the tractors were working in it.. so perfect timing! xx I found this little Seal Matrix.. got a strong little signal but the tractor was bearing down on me… so I had to walk away, but...

So today was bitter sweet, knowing we are back to work tomorrow, But the weather has been kind and we have loved every minute! xx A pretty little silver button, then an oddity, I see a face only a mother could love… 😆. 2 little rings, buckle and what I think is part of a spur, little strap...

… and we are back in the game! Went off to a new field today, this one is the other side of the hedge from our best fields near the pond! I know you all love the shiney coins, but for me it’s the bits… and what a stunner I found… this gorgeous complete buckle… could of happily given up for the...

Today we were off to the races… well the old race course stubble bit! Now this wasn’t a super active race course with only one event a year… but I love the history. We detected here last year with our old machines, but this year it’s still a stubble field so we didn't do as well, however...

Back out into the blazing sun to try the Dirk field today! 😬 journey over I spent praying he wouldn’t find another.. 😂 … and he didn’t, but we had a lovely time, the going was smooth and the digging was easy 😆 xx Let me start you off with my gorgeous buckle! Then a bronze lump was clearly once...
