Subject: Seeking Metal Detecting Permissions in Berkshire
Hello everyone,
I’m reaching out to see if there are any farmers or landowners in the Berkshire area who would be open to allowing me to metal detect on their land. I am happy to share any valuable finds 50/50 with the landowner, and I will also report any historical items to the appropriate liaison officer, in accordance with the law.
I’ve been having a tough time finding places to pursue my hobby, so any assistance would be greatly appreciated. While I do enjoy detecting in the parks that Reading Council permits, I would love the opportunity to have my own dedicated permissions.
Thank you for your consideration!
It sounds like you’re really passionate about metal detecting! Have you tried reaching out to local farmers directly or posting flyers in your area? Sometimes, joining local metal detecting clubs can also help you connect with landowners willing to grant permission. It’s great that you’re offering to share finds and comply with the law—it shows respect for the land and its history. Best of luck in finding some good spots to practice your hobby!
