Title: Re: oxwich beach gower Post by: dragonsbreath(Paul) on April 26, 2014, 10:26:58 AM Oxwich has been good in the past the"Rare" club used to hold annual events there in the winter.
Many a bit of bling has surfaced there...in recent years i have only found ring pulls and modern coinage. There is also a lot of metallic items related to boats way out on the sand/mud H.H. to all PaulB. Title: Re: oxwich beach gower Post by: db4 on April 26, 2014, 10:47:40 AM Oxwich beach and car park I do believe is part of the Penrice Estate so that you need permission to detect there.
The Crown Estate Permit is no good there, Title: Re: oxwich beach gower Post by: dances with badgers on April 26, 2014, 02:47:07 PM not talking to catherin zeta jones she stills owes me a tenner ;)

Title: Re: oxwich beach gower Post by: EddieV983 on September 05, 2017, 12:51:00 AM I was on Oxwich beach detecting yesterday 4th September 2017 and found 20 fired ammunition cases. The cases appear to be 30-06 dated 1942 with the manufacturer D M stamped into the base. Also found a few bullet heads for said cases and a couple of what appear to be 9mm bullet heads. All items were found using a CTX 3030 at a depth of around 4 - 8 inches and in remarkably nice preserved condition. Judging by the way they were grouped around and a couple of bounds apart, gave the impression of a little bit of F&M taking place from the extent of the tide being out back towards the dunes.
