You can often find very small bits as you’re walking along pebbly stretches so that’s a nice find. Title: Re: Fossil found while detecting. Post by: probono on August 13, 2018, 11:12:23 PM Great fossil coral :) - did you find any metal?
Title: Re: Fossil found while detecting. Post by: Phil Aberaman on August 14, 2018, 06:23:58 AM Well the Res was once a village, farms and pubs but I wasnt expecting much due to silting . but found a few farming tools, enough lead to sink a ship and modern stuff left by fishermen.
The reason i wanted to do it was the Bridge and road either side was at its original level. There must be something there but there was an huge area to cover. They,ve emptied Beacons and Cantref "Res,s" (Is that even a word ?) Into Lwyn-on now so its filling fast, Title: Re: Fossil found while detecting.
