Welcome to the forum Gedwelsh and please note metal detecting is very very addictive  ;D
You will get plenty of advice off here if needed always someone about to help ;)

Happy hunting my friend

Hello Gedwelsh, nice to see a local here. I'm just down the road from you in Acrefair,

What detector are you getting for your birthday? I'm planning on putting some postcards around and posting on Gumtree and Preloved for some land to detect on, if I secure some you're welcome to come along.  :)

Hello dusty, I now have a "American Hawks Explorer II " it's a beginners as that is what I am, I would love to join you should you get permission to go on land, I will also post some request for detecting in my local area too, also have you heard of the land near penycae called MSN? I know the land owners and my get permission to detect on their fields if you think it's worth it?

Hi, I'm new to all this too I live in chirk so only down the road, I'm looking for land in the area, we should all get together and knock on a few doors!!

My dad lives in Chirk and I head down every few weeks with the metal detector. Hopefully I might get to meet up with a few of yous next time I'm down from Glasgow. Happy hunting guys!

I'm up for a bit of that  :)

Hiya guys

Me to a newby live in Corwen got a cheap detector to start with (ebay Klarstein) used to detect about 25-30 years ago in Rossendale and thought I would give it a go again.

My son lives in Glyn Ceriog and can probably get a permission or two I have a farm at the back of me and have shooting permission there will ask for detecting permission too (gun now in daughters hands!  :()

I have an 8 seat minibus with plenty of bag room at the back, so if anyone fancies a trip to the beach??????? let me know and see if we can get together.

Alternately, I have an old ambulance campervan conversion (work in progress) My wife is a wheelchair user and it has a ramp but most important warm cup of tea tv and shelter to defrost! it is a 3 person only seating though........... any offers/ideas?  ???

Hi guys,

I am from Froncysyllte so I know Llangollen well and acrefair.

If you guys have any permission on any land around there can I join you please. I'm a beginner and need to start somewhere.

The Fron? I used to own the Old Co-op on Alma Rd

did you goldpanner, hmmm maybe before my time that. I'm 30 now but moved from fron when I was 24. Don't recall a co-op when i was there.

No it wasnt, when I bought it It was a closed shop. .I converted the big flat upstairs then sold it to a couple who converted the downstairs too.

Yes, have detected around Acrefair and at the campsite at Valle Crucis. Nice sites at Ruabon too.
