HANDLING AND CARE: We strongly recommend that you learn about the handling, care and storage of any historical or archaeological finds while you are out metal detecting.

If it is in “holiday maker” season then I would advise getting there at sunrise so you have plenty enough time before people start to arrive. Gardens Before going out to detect metal, prepare a plan of action of where you plan to go and for how long you plan to metal detect.
