Finally apoligies to all that know me but I have been suffering with bad eyes and head again whilst using the computer so had to curtail my usage. I have some more hammered again on this farm but the farmer wants to show his bro what I have been finding as I am trying to get his farm which on the tithe map has a huge area of common fields on. As soon as he gets them back to me you will see the pics. I think the one is a Charles 1 and another two Lizzie 1. Will get a positive ID when I put the Pics UP but after four months I am still in the First field and finding plenty so am over the moon. Als been looking around at the farm and have discovered loads of earthworks under the Orchards and In the far fields which are up near the house. A lovely family really make this hobby such a good one to be involved in. Below is a pic of some of the earth work platforms. Oh and a silver ring I found earlier in the year is going to the sons Wedding. A bit of the farms history going to the future. Oh and thank you all for the info
