Title: Nice Church Post by: avalon on July 08, 2012, 02:40:07 PM I found an amazing church this afternoon whilst driving around looking for a few new sites. The church is Saxon/Norman with a tower built in the 16 th Century. It’s surrounded by fields so should be plenty of finds just waiting to be found
Just need to find out who the landowner is. Title: Re: Nice Church Post by: JohnF on July 08, 2012, 06:54:08 PM Looks a very promising place, its got a footpath across it too.
Good luck with the permision. Title: Re: Nice Church Post by: nobby on July 08, 2012, 06:58:05 PM its owned by Paul the vexatious blogger with incredibly itchy underpants ::) ;D
Title: Re: Nice Church Post by: avalon on July 08, 2012, 07:54:01 PM its owned by Paul the vexatious blogger with incredibly itchy underpants ::) ;D He lives in the bell tower Nobby, a bit like the Hunchback of Notre-Dame. The bit where he say’s they’ve taken my Esmeralda, should read they’ve taken our heritage. ::) Title: Re: Nice Church Post by: stampy on July 08, 2012, 08:58:43 PM Wow....location location location - That looks a cracking prospect if you get pemission.
Title: Re: Nice Church Post by: nfl on July 09, 2012, 01:53:04 PM found my first ever gold coin in a field next to a church which had footpath running through it ,,,had shed loads of coins mainly georgian/vic but it was a vic church so i think the age of finds will corespond with the age of the church.
Title: Re: Nice Church Post by: avalon on July 09, 2012, 04:47:39 PM Well I got permission on the neighbouring farm today, so I hope to move in for the kill fairly soon. Thought it was wise to grab the farm next door first, and make friends with that farmer as it will make it easier to get the church farm at a later date. If I go in strait away and he blows me out of the water, that is it, finished.
The worst thing you can do is say , ‘’hey mate do you own this farm, can I dig for some treasure!’’ Never works, in my book, got to be more subtle |
