Hi All, what a great website. I've only been detecting for the last 3 months with my secondhand Whites spectrum xlt and I'm hooked. Haven't got any land permission as yet, so I've only managed footpaths and beaches. Already had some good finds i.e. vicky younghead sovereign, gold ring, silver ring, £ 30.18p cash loads of pre decimal and 3 military badges, what a cracking machine. Desperate now to find some celtic and Roman... maybe one day

Welcome to DW and well done on your finds to date.

However it is well worth noting that one is not allowed to detect on footpaths/rights of way. Information can be found here .... and the relevant paragraph, for your perusal.

hope to see you on a DW rally some day.

What can I do on a right of way?

This depends on the status of the route in question (see above), but in general terms you are allowed to pass and re-pass as a genuine traveller, and undertake closely allied activities such as stopping to rest or look at views. Wherever there is a right of way on foot there is also a right to have certain accompaniments, such as a pram or pushchair where accessible. You have no right to undertake unrelated activities such as metal-detecting or flying model aircraft. Certain organized events such as races may also not be allowed, or may require permission. Contact the Public Rights of Way Officer of your local authority for further details.

Hi Handyman, thanks for your reply, oops it seems that I might have unknowingly done something that I shouldn't have. The path in question is an old slightly overgrown path between two villages on the side of a small mountain , which is still occasionally used ,it's not signposted as a public footpath . I think I'll stick to tthe beaches for the moment until I can get somewhere with permission. yes it would be great to meet up at a rally one day
