By the time I arrived the last remnants of the mornings frost had gradually disappeared a stark contrast to the winter white frost that greeted me in the morning . It was bitter cold first thing and I was debating on whether to bother going but as it has been some time since my last visit I decided to brave it for a few hours .
The finds were quite sparse apart from the usual buttons but I would rather unearth them than the amount of ring pulls I had the misfortune to find . I lost count after 1/2 a dozen so someone was having a knees up on the field , they give such a good signal but thats all part of the game .
The upside was the dramatic change in the scenery . With the afternoons sun up and about poking through the clouds , the warm rays drew up the moisture from the surrounding fields and the landscape was lost in the rising mist , it was pretty impressive and it is moments like these that I am glad to be able to get out and about and appreciate what is on my doorstep .
No coins today , not even a blank one which tends to be the condition a lot of them come out and dare I say no sign of the dreaded shottie , no doubt my next visit will be jinxed and I will have a pocket full .
One piece was quite interesting and looks to be possibly part of a pewter plate or dish , I have had a couple of pieces similar to this fragment in the past , other than that , not a lot else but it was just great to be back out
