First beach session

Post by Stillburning »

After looking at the tides and weather decided to hit the beach today for a change.

Started at Berrow headed towards Burnham going out as far as the soft sand starts hoping for some bullets but nothing but trash for 2 hours (and not much of that). Headed up the beach and found a key, old penny and 20p in a relatively small area so searched that for 3 hours and ended up with the finds in the picture.

Penny, halfpenny, £1, 50p, 4 x 20p, 2 x 2p, 1957 shilling, 5p, 1p, blinged up cross - a bit of variety for me as I dont find much more modern that Geogian on the farm.

Went up to Brean and spent an hour and a half there started off just below the down and then back towards Berrow but didnt find anything there.

Lovely day and got back to the car just before the rain came like a monsoon.

I was using the AT pro in pro zero mode with auto ground balancing (10 in the very wet sand up to 72 in the dry sand).

I realise that people that search the beaches dont want to give away the most productive spots but if anyone would mind suggesting an area where the bullets are it would be good for next time ::g

Berrow beach where you can park on the beach just past unity farm, anywhere between the posts and down the beach about 100y that's the bullet field mostly 303 and some pistol and 50 cal rounds.

further up the beach park at the church in berrow and walk down to the beach, here you will find lots of lead canister shot which was from 6 pounders. ::g ::g

any probs send me a message!
For there is nothing lost, that may be found, if sought!
