6 til 1-30 today so took the detector with me and went to the new farm today and gave it 2 and a half hours. Lots of signals again with lead by the bucket full. Quite a few pellets from an air gun as well giving all sorts of signals. Still made some nice finds though and gives me a bit more knowledge on the history of the area. Below are the better finds that is not a bad return for 3 hours.

They are the weirdest sugar tongues I've ever seen Paul. They look more like calipers of some sort, but I might be wrong. Roll Eyes

Well after the Council has dug up the Broadband and put me off line for 13 days I can at last update on the last visit to the New Farm. I had a four hour stint last week as having the flu and work rather restricted my time but with the Farm having its open weekend this last weekend I have been restricted in the time to visit as well. Nothing out standing but I know there is a lot more to find and now the apples have been harvested along with the cut straw being baled I have loads more to go at. So here are my latest finds. First up more than happy to find this even though it is not complete it bods well and I think is a part off a Croatal bell. Also a bag seal that is the first piece of lead that is recognisable. Have had two bucketfuls of scrap lead.
