Well been on the old shore by me today metal detecting, found nothing of interest really but thought I'd better put something up show you I am still trying. Thought I'd come across a treasure chest when I found the round handle thing , lol. There is an old boat on the shore so me thinks a lot of came off that. Oh well onwards and upwards!
Good find Cools. Missm could be right,It does look like off old scaffolding bits and peices. Weather will be improving this week so hopefully you will get out and about to do your searching xx
Four tooth lock washers per bolt is unusual it would imply five layers of wood but I guess they have just been used for three layers (post with a plank either side) and put unnecessary toothed washers behind the square washers.
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

Definitely not scaffolding, unless its wooden scaffolding.

No matter what you find Cools a find is a find so keep it up and I'm sure you will soon be digging up something that makes you smile. Meanwhile keep posting you finds for us all to try to identify.
That was the other shore , by the esplanade where the Great Eastern was broken up I think Clung. I would gave been pleased if it had of been, I little bit of history..
think digging deeper is nearer on those bolt things. They are toothed plate connectors used when joining several timbers together. Possibly from formwork when placing concrete or baulk timbers edging slipways or making timber beams or pillars
Be very careful if you see rusty handles in the pebbles - Its still possible to pull up an unexploded Mine or bomb from the Second World War! Jerry used to drop the surplus stuff in the river in the hopes of blowing up some unfortunate Liverpudlian or Seacombeite! Linuxfanatik

Very true. My Grandad (nearly 95 years old) has told me about un-exploded hand grenades being flung in the Mersey, post war.
Thanks for the warning folks. That would be my luck, blowing myself up. I must admit when I do come across a big chunk of metal I always think is it a bomb. I will be careful, don't want to go out with a bang....
