[QUOTE="Red Fred, post: 8197365, member: 189"] A lot of folks seem happy to spend at least £1000 on the latest must have detector and all the gear but have the idea that they should then be entitled to somewhere to use it for free. In fact, of course, the land itself is by far the most important part of the equation and if we are paying the farm off at £10 or 15 grand an acre, why should we subsidise other folks' hobbies? Also, I often hear local farmers saying "I had a detectorist round but he never found anything" but having searched here for years with 1970s technology, it seems unlikely that all these people are really finding nothing as I have amassed a fair collection of artefacts even though we are not in the most exciting spot.
