We had Scott and his son from Bristol sweep some fields one weekend in August and these are some of the finds they have come up with over 4 hours detecting. Scott cleaned up the items and they are as follows :
Large buckle probably a horse strap ,
Other buckle belt
1600 ,
Two fantastic thimbles , one pewter, the smaller one is brass
Iron wedge,
Chest of draws handle,
Musket ball,
Spur buckle or a small shoe buckle 1600-1700 ,
1935 six pence,
Flat button with
initials of cs on it
We hope to see Scott and his son back here again soon and we will update you with his finds.
As we're close to the old Honiton Pottery, we keep turning up broken pots, mostly of the older brown earthenware kind. We've never used a metal detector.
