> Hello everyone,
> I'm Denise, a detectorist from Switzerland and a keen enthusiast working with our Archeology department. Although I'm still learning, I'm a member of the NCMD and have already connected with Treasure Trove and Historic Environment Scotland, so I'm aware of the detecting guidelines.
> In May 2025, my wife and I are planning a trip through Scotland and a bit of the UK, starting at Hadrian's Wall and then driving the NC500 anticlockwise.
> Knowing how tough it can be to secure landowner permission, I'm hoping to connect with anyone who already has permission in areas along our route. As tourists, we unfortunately won't have the time to approach landowners ourselves.
> I would be immensely appreciative if anyone would be willing to let me join them for an hour or two of detecting on their permitted land during our travels. If you're interested, please reach out, and we can discuss the details.
> Wishing you all happy and fruitful hunts!
