Had a nice day out in the fields near Thornton Hough on Saturday. Few finds came up. Also got to see a Lancaster Bomber fly right over our heads which was amazing! Here’s a few pictures of my finds from the day.

Thanks for putting your finds up Ex, I do enjoy seeing what you get. Always hoping for you to find that special piece. Don't fancy the digging you have to do at the moment bet it's hard work with the ground being so hard and dry. No devilish faces in this lot so you ok,ha...

Yes it’s really tough at the minute, the ground is like rock! Also with this heat it makes it draining lol but it’s worth it. This is just the best bits I had, I don’t bother showing the amounts of lead, iron, ring pulls, cow tubes, foil etc.... I must dig about 100 holes easily in a day haha and nope, no bad omens this time!!

Its amazing how many coins were lost, they might seem like trivial value to us but in 1862 that ha'penny was worth over £2 of today's brass.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025
