Title: Newport area for a beginner!!!
Post by: Hammers on March 12, 2012, 08:11:10 PM
Hi everybody,
I have been thinking about getting a detector for some time and I think Im going to get one pretty soon.
I really want to know if there are any clubs in Newport or the surrounding areas that I could join, and also is this area generally regarded as any good to detect in?
Apologies if it sounds like a stupid question!!

cheers,
Simon.

Hi Simon, Welcome to Detecting Wales.

This must be a record, 2 hours 20mins and no one from around Newport has answered your post. :o
Usually a great site for information and help and theyre all very friendly. Can't help myself, I'm over by Tenby. Can say, you're in a better part of the Country for detecting than me.

Great hobby, get one  and get out there.  Best of luck. :)

Val

Get yourself a Crown Estates permit and hit the beach. There is always something to find on the shoreline !
