    Very interesting thanks. Thinking of going out digging today, fields are like bogs but I've only got 3 days to do some before back at work.

    Looks like a potato shovel, a big mug and a stick for hitting things with.

    Well that was a good day out, went over the "hotspot" in the Roman field and the very damp conditions must have helped as I found 8 Roman coins, beats my previous best haul of 6 in one day. Haven't tried to ID them yet but one is a superb condition Sestertius of I think Antoninus Pius.

    The bottom left item on the top photo clearly comes from Aquae Sulis.

    It's a tombac button 18th-19thc. It could have been made in Bath.

    WWII, found loads on that field, guessing the Home Guard practised there. Only found 3 this time as I've already been over that area twice and reckon I've dug most of the big targets:
