My family own Higher Heys farm bordering Hambledon and with Kings Highway running through Warmden Quarry on my fathers land.
However Im also a detector fan , or was 25 yrs ago , and searched Gamblers caves and found loads of old coins and bullets but nothing of value

Hi Chris
Its some years since I was at that farm, the barn was on fire, the hydrant in the field was useless, to many people using water down in Accy, we had to relay water from heights farm, further down the main, that one is also in the field just East of the farm.
We used to get our milk from the farmer who owned it then.
Can't remember his name.
Some of those bullets you found could have been mine.
