Treasure Hunting With Bill Wyman

Yes, that Bill Wyman. The bassist of The Rolling Stones is now selling metal detectors.

I have always been interested in archaeology and early cultures and when I bought a manor house in Suffolk in 1968 I kept finding fragments in the grounds which inspired my interest even more.

In the early 1990s I brought my first C.Scope metal detector and this helped me uncover the site of a Roman homestead. I've been a serious detecting enthusiast ever since and was delighted when my daughter Katie showed an interest in the hobby.
