I am waiting for a 4 acre site to be cleared and iam told their was a famous brothel on this site .It is situated next to an important crossroads...It will be just my luck that the customers paid the girls in loafs of bread Grin But my mate found two gold guineas in a small field behind a old inn. A famous fairy bridge produced a few Georgian Coins..A small glen produced many farthings ,most coming out of area around a derelict amusement
arcade.Apaddock of an area of half an acre..I got lovely porcelain Austrian brooch on a site of an open air theatre from 1920"s..There is a gypsie girl hand painted on it ..A small picnic site that my dad directed to me where the lads and girls of the parish went on a Sunday and some nice coins and jewellery turned up..An area of meadow where the kids from a nearby school played and got some nice school medalions from there..A small v of grass in a village where the village fayre was held and some nice silver halfcrowns turned up..A spoil heap taken from our cathedral to another site and quite few 60s toys turned up...I love all periods of history and small is beautiful they say  Grin

Big fields can be a bit daunting.   Ages ago I found and saved an American blog site with loads of info' on it.  One section was headed  'Where to Go'    Half joking the 1st bit of advice was,   Seek out the nearest, oldest neighbour in the area and have a chin wag.  It's amazing how much you can learn about an area from some one like that.
Most of the areas suggested were small and, certainly for us in the U.K. would not be allowed but many other small areas of interest included places like an old school play ground, where local fairs used to be held, fields where the boys used to play footy on a Sat. morning and of course local lovers meeting spots plus quite a few others.
It could explain why we find goodies in unexpected places.  Shame the fields can't talk.
