Metal Detecting NORFOLK on an Historic Estate which dated back to Roman.

Ойын-сауық

When I saw a metal detecting dig planned on a historic estate in Norfolk I decided to make the 6 hour drive and go, the hall was built on a Roman fort and there was also a very old church in the grounds, along with other historical features.
I took both my Garrett AT max and my Garrett ACE apex because there was a variety of ground types over the weekend. Our expectations were very high but alas they did not materialise, but it made no difference to the enjoyment of the weekend.
We also managed to include a trip to the 900 year old Binham Abbey and went to Wells on sea on a beautiful evening.

    On Kit and Caboodlers channel, they showed a similar bee that looked disoriented, and Kate gave it some kinda sugar syrup out of a tube on her keyring, called Revive a bee. It drank it readily and then regained its strength to fly away. Never saw anything like that. Good seeing you out enjoying the weather and friends.

    I used to love going metal detecting, and made a few reasonable finds. I got very disenchanted with rallies though. They were great for meeting people and having a laugh, but as far as finding anything they were pretty useless. So often it was obvious from the finds coming out, that the site had been seeded, and there was little to be found of any value, and what you did find was often a broken artifact. They were also getting more and more expensive with people running them as a business.

    Don’t apologize for ‘not showing’ anything! You showed a baffled bee,who woke up to early,because of the warmth,and finding nothing to eat! But the BEST showing was at 15:25.
