Essex Unearthed

Essex Unearthed

Three of us have decided to film our metal detecting sessions so that we will have a permanent record. And maybe others will enjoy watching us through our high and low moments.
We will be doing giveaways, we will be taking part in challenges, we will be attending the occasional rallies, we will be taking road trips to other parts of Essex and beyond. But most of all, we will be enjoying ourselves doing a hobby that we all love.
We have named ourselves Essex Unearthed because that is where we are from and it is where most of our sessions take place. But don't be fooled into thinking that we only detect there. We will travel from time to time to organised digs or just visit beaches that are in other Counties.
We are all members of a metal detecting club and we all have insurance.
Please join us on our journey to uncover the lost treasures of Essex and beyond

    In my opinion you can't go wrong with the Garret Carrot. I have been using mine in all conditions for around 7 years and it is still going strong. Cheap pinpointers are a waste of time and money.

    I emailed castle Point about beach detecting. They sent me a long list of byelaws and a form. You can, but need to apply in advance with the form and name the area you wish to cover. Valid 6 months after approval. Is there any restriction on castle foreshore can somebody please tell me?

  • @essexunearthed6193
    @essexunearthed6193 Жыл бұрын

    I dont know too much about castle point. I do know however that there are some private beaches on Canvey Island which you can't detect on. Shoebury Common beach is OK for detecting as are Thorpe Bay, Southend, Westcliff, Chalkwell and Leigh. Beyond that I am unsure.

    With all due respect...you're not going to find anything of historic value out there. Only dropped jewellery and modern coins. I know those beaches and mudflats like the back of my hand You are better off going up around the corner to East Shoebury beach. At least they had the Garrison there and there always bits and pieces of old pottery etc on the beach.
