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!

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.

Definitely not scaffolding, unless its wooden scaffolding.

The article below the lock looks like a rowing boat rollick, if it was opened up to a U shape.

It is a pipe clip, the type used to secure the likes of old central heating pipes.

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.
