At last i've got a leg to stand on !
Searched a local wood late this afternoon, got to be honest I don't really like searching woods. But with nearly all of the fields in crop beggars can't be choosers. First find laying on the top was a button, hand made and looks very old with a lion on it. The button is very large and in perfect condition, it shows traces of gold gilding. Got a feeling this is a nice find historically. Next find of note after a constant stream of shot gun butts was a hollow bronze alloy leg. When you find bronze limbs in England you think Roman statuet, but I don't think it is, the figure when complete though would have been fairly large. I searched this wood which is not an ancient wood, because the fields that surround it have given me loads of goods finds over the years.
