We only had 1 cold rain shower today, but I'm very pleased to have completed the whole of this Site before the Beans sprouted.
2 hours 30 Mins.
I had;
3 Roman Bronze Coins
Iron Age Celtic Terret Ring
Top of 1st C AD Roman Fibula (Brooch)
Roman Hob-nail
My mate had 3 Roman coins & a important Roman Mount;
''Discussion: This mount belongs to a small group of mounts apprently associated with horse gear (Nicolay 2007, 388). Most notably, on the continent they are found in association with the famed Batavian horse auxilaries of the Roman army from the Rhine Delta (Nicolay 2007). The Batavians were also known to have been utlised in military operations in Brtain from the 1st century BC (under Julius Ceaser) until at least the 2nd century AD when a group are known to have been stationed at Vindolanda. A very small number of such mounts have been reported to the PAS: LANCUM-DB9B0C''

I'm curious as to how many square miles or kilometers you've covered in your detecting outings over the years.......any rough estimates?
