Treasures of the Devon Coast

Welcome to Metal Detecting in Cumbria Devon

One in a series of no-nonsense guides designed for detectorists who want results, not waffle.

This book is deliberately compact. At around 6,000 words, it won't take you long to read, and that's entirely the point. Every page earns its place. There's no padding, no repetition, and no filler content — just solid, practical information about detecting in Devon that you can act on straight away.

At £1.95, this guide costs less than a cup of coffee, yet the knowledge inside could help you uncover coins and artefacts worth many times that on your very first outing. Think of it as the cheapest investment you'll ever make in your hobby.

Inside, you'll find everything you need to know about detecting in Devon the best locations to search, the history buried beneath your feet, the types of finds you can realistically expect, permissions and legal requirements, local clubs and resources, and the geological and archaeological background that gives you a real edge in the field.

This series was written for detectorists by someone who understands the hobby — and understands that your time in the field is precious. So read it, get out there, and let the ground do the rest.

Good luck, and good hunting.
