Brigantia being the ancient pre Roman name for this region of Northern England, the county of Lancashire (pronounced Lan-ki-shur) where I live and where I hunt.
A medieval packhorse bridge on a permission of mine. The landowner told me he once caught a couple of hawkers detecting around this old bridge years, ago he also had some legitimate detectorists there too. It wouldnt stop me detecting the area; however the terrain around it does with the grass far too long
to swing a coil.
And so its the pasture fields like the one in the picture that I tend to detect mostly.
Where I took this photo with the hill as the backdrop recently produced a Bronze age spearhead and has been fruitful for me finding some nice silver coins.
The hill, Pendle, will be known to some in Pennsylvania as it's the place the founder of the Quaker movement had his vision of God back in the 18th century.
Merlin the wizard is also said to have frequented the summit back in the day and he also used to have visions up there.
And as a teenager me and my mates used to go there too and funnily enough we'd also have visions too as the slopes are covered in magic mushrooms at this time of year.
I wonder what time of year that Quacker fella went wandering up there talking of visions.
Anyway that's a snippet from my neck of the woods.
Cheers.
