RALLY.
Crewe & Nantwich Metal Detecting Rally
Sunday 29th.October 2006
Venue: Hurst Hall and Townley Farms
Marbury. South Cheshire
Fee: £5 per detector user
Start Time: 10am until 5pm
Map Ref: SJ 570 460
Hurst Hall Farm and Townley Farm are owned by the same farmer who has kindly opened up the fields of both farms to metal detecting. The invitation to detect is for clubs and groups only, not individuals. The total acreage of both farms is 350 acres but, as some of this has been re-seeded recently all 350 acres are not available to us at this rally.. It is important therefore, that digging is to be kept as tidy as possible, holes filled in and no iron or rubbish left on the surface
The farms are at the above map reference . Marbury can be reached from the A49 Whitchurch Rd and via the cross –road (arrowed) at Bickley. In the village, pass “The Swan” on your left and carry on for approx ½ mile. From Nantwich, go via Marsh Lane, Ravensmoor and Wrenbury: turning left opposite the Church. Stay on this road for about 3 miles. Parking will be at Townley Farm

Tommy Mac found a Roman brooche, vessica seal, bronze pin and 20, yes 20 roman bronze coins. And he was using a faulty machine. He was surrounded by people using top of the range detectors (minelabs) that were interfering with his machine. He just hoovered them up while everyone else failed dismally.
As I get more news I'll let you know!!!
