The Law of Property is complex and we all benefit from it so are we to say just a bit of it, where old stones are involved, should be amended to suit our particular hobby? I can just see the next cry: "It's everyone's heritage so there should be Freedum to metal detect"!

Actually property law has nothing to do with access by the public, or to do with trespass. The law of property only deals with creation of estates and interests in land (i.e. ownership, private rights, mortgages, etc), it doesn't really have any bearing on public rights of access, which are covered by an entirely different set of legislation.
