It helps,if you are going "cold calling" for permission to detect,if you have appropriate insurance too:-

Membership

I have permission from local councils to detect on certain open spaces (parks etc) as well as permission (from "cold calling") off some local farmers.

Though I've never been,I also have a permit from the crown estates to detect on certain parts of the foreshore (not Bpool that would be down to local council).

it's free if you want to apply:- http://www.thecrownestate.co.uk/rura...t-application/


Also,I keep all my spendable coppers in a jar,if it was £1,£2 coins I'd be guilty
Thanks for that, I had already got the permit for crown estate it was only when I got to B'pool I discovered that the beaches weren't covered by that.

I was told it was owned by the duchy of lancaster and permits from them are around £50 per year.
