Re: NCMD Rules under lockdown 5th Nov - 2nd Dec

Public spaces over eons of time are on a landowners property.
Why cant we detect with the landowners permission on those public spaces.
What makes them any different than a city councils public spaces
Got to be worth a thought.
Keep Safe,

Re: new to detecting and have lots of questions

I would not advise starting with a Gofind 44.
The money would be better spent on a guaranteed used machine from a reputable dealer.
We have a number of such dealers if you need some friendly help.
Happy Hunting,
Jerry.

It reminds me of a Roma Villa site just half a mile up the road from where I live. Bristol City council have it wire fenced off, but is is visible to view and there are open days. They could have chosen to build on the site, but had the common sense to save a piece our city history for future genera...
