Hi Phil
Im sorry i cant help with places to detect around your neck of the wood but it may be an idea to get involved with your local detecting Club.
They would have club land where you could go and maybe youll get invited on a few Digs !

all the best and good luck with your new hobbie

regards
Another Phil
