welcome to tnet
look for old schools, old churches
and old home sites for some goodies.
But always get permission and if possible
get written permission and keep it with you
while detecting.
Good luck and keep us posted on
your finds with some nice pictures !

Welcome to T-Net and the obsession! Allen is right, though he forgot to mention the beach!!! You will always find good stories, good finds, good people, and good advice here.

Best of luck!!!

A few years back, they replaced all the sidwalks in downtown North Conway. I was there on vacation at the time and wanted to tell the DPW guys that I was with the Historical Society and needed to detect all their sand piles.

Investigate the ownership of some of the older homes in town and see if anyone will give you permission to dig. Early 1900s summer camp locations would also be good.

See if anyone knows of any old cellar holes out in the woods.

Also fun to wade around at the sandbar between Broad Bay and the Big Lake after dinner time. I've only found small change there, but you never know with that volleyball net.

Hello everyone and thanks for the welcome.I got out yesterday and went to an old cellar hole across the street from my place.The guy i met told me his house was around 300 yrs. old and that it had been moved from up the street along time ago.so i went and found the old cellar hole and looked around a bit found some old square head nails a few old bullets an old hoe end and some other pieces of metal that i have to clean up.There are about 8 other cellar hole in the same area and i have been told they were some of ossipee's first settlers.I did also finda horseshoe in the road there and an old piece of brass real thin with tiny holes in it.I have to wait for the water to go go down in the holes but plan on doing alot more searching there.Also went to the park on rt. 25 and followed the trail to a little beach and found some newer change and some old bullets.would like to go to duncan lake beach but have to find out if it's ok first.I'm using a bounty hunter lone star and it works pretty good.Will be back later for some more updates thank everyone again for the welcome and take care,Bernie
