Title: Gower Beaches Post by: ShadowPilot on October 24, 2014, 09:18:27 PM Hello all,
Does anybody know if there are any restrictions on the Gower Beaches please? Thanks, Steve. Title: Re: Gower Beaches Post by: Val Beechey on October 25, 2014, 03:51:31 AM If you check the Crown Estate maps I think you'll find nearly the whole Gower area is either owned or managed by the National Trust. But I have seen others mention that as long as you avoid Sand Dunes and SSI areas, in other words stick to the beach, no one bothers you.
I have been told this personally by a Trust Warden in another area. Val p.s. link to the Crown Estate Map...........http://www.thecrownestate.co.uk/coastal/metal-detecting/metal-detecting-permit-application/ (http://www.thecrownestate.co.uk/coastal/metal-detecting/metal-detecting-permit-application/) Title: Re: Gower Beaches Post by: stevem45 on October 25, 2014, 08:40:19 AM Used to go on the beaches down there about 15 years ago and never had a problem then.
And I think you are right about the dunes. Title: Re: Gower Beaches Post by: ShadowPilot on October 25, 2014, 09:04:16 AM Thanks for the link and info, I didn't know about that map :-)

Had quite a bit of gold from them, and years ago had 2 hammered coins off Port Eynon beach. Title: Re: Gower Beaches Post by: dances with badgers on October 25, 2014, 12:05:52 PM yeah just get on em an swing
