Title: Has anyone detected !!!!!!!
Post by: waltonbasinman on March 09, 2009, 01:08:50 PM
Has anyone ever done any detecting at or near to the village of Bwlch on the A40 between Crickhowell and Brecon. Just wondered because it is where the Time Team dug a few years ago and if anybody saw the programme an antiquarian had deposited real finds of brooches, coins, swords and statues amongst other things from all periods around his land and I know a chap who lives there and was going to approach some landowners there about some detecting.  :)

Haven't detected in that area but I remember that episode of TT. It was proved a hoax when the team found an ancient sword and buried under it was barbed wire. :D
