As Cru'dad dropped me off in the morning I wanted to change my angle of attack & grid the furthest point from the Roman Site. I also wanted to do full lengths of the field making each run 25 minutes & the biggest grid I have attempted. This was to sample both ends of the field at once. I also thought it was a more likely area for hammered. Which proved to be right after just less than 5 minutes! Kiss of Death! (plus 1 Roman coin) I did 3 hours 15 minutes before Cru'dad joined me for Lunch & we switch to the Roman area for 2 hrs 15 minutes.
Although the finds are spread about in a large area they can be from any period from Bronze Age - Modern, so that makes it interesting & worth the effort when no other options are available (minus 1 grass field we need to blind hunt).

Great job CRU you could buil a museum around those farm fields. I dream of the day I find a place to hunt thats worth digging every signal My town was founded in 1817 no battles though I assure you it could have been a great battle site lol Plus there is alot of trash. I mean alot of trash. Thanks for sharing my friend. Well done
