Great link, thanks. Wonder why the metal detectorist fessed up? Perhaps he was being pursued by the shades of BA warriors.


Perhaps. Let's hope so, eh?
I don't want to think about how many other artefacts like that have been removed from sites under the cover of darkness.



Could always bury a few fakes, with telemetry embedded. ;)


Ha, can you imagine. I've no problem, generally, with responsible detectorists but knobheads digging up scheduled monuments in the hope of making a bit of cash.. christ almighty.



Well i guess we've all been asked the question why we're fascinated by earthen bumps, half buried stones, "site of" sites where nothing remains etc, which goes to show some people have no interest or love of the things we treasure, or even any semblance of respect in some cases. Maybe this is an example.
