Newton Abbot District Metal Detecting Club
We are the Newton Abbot District Metal Detecting Club, where we bring together metal detectorists from across the Teignbridge and South Hams area to share our passion for uncovering hidden treasures!
Uncovering the Hidden Treasures of The South West
The Newton Abbot District Metal Detecting Club is a vibrant and diverse group of metal detectorists from all walks of life. From a Policeman to a Restaurant Owner, a Radio Ham to a Clergyman, this friendly group of hobbyists has been bringing together people from the Teignbridge area of South Devon since 2013.
Not only do we abide by the Guidelines laid down by the Portable Antiquities Scheme and the Countryside Code, but we also hold Public Liability Cover to ensure the safety of all members.
Unlock the Mysteries of Your Land – Invite the Newton Abbot District Metal Detecting Club for a Club Dig!
Are you a landowner with a curiosity about the history of your property?
Let us help you uncover the secrets of the past with a club dig. Contact Us to get started on the voyage of discovery
Our experienced metal detectorists are passionate about discovering the hidden stories of the land and will always conduct thorough research before visiting a site. This includes examining old maps, studying National Heritage data, satellite imagery and relevant printed material.
We understand the importance of protecting your property and will always adhere to the Metal Detecting Code of Practice.
All our members are fully insured for public liability, and a short landowners agreement form will be signed in advance of any site visit, detailing the way any significant finds should be dealt with (normally 50:50 split).
Unlock the mysteries of your land with the Newton Abbot District Metal Detecting Club and join us on a journey of discovery.
The landowner of a site we recently visited for a Club Dig
“I recently invited the Club to come and explore my land. I was amazed at the professionalism and enthusiasm of the members. They were very respectful of my property and took great care to ensure that the area was left in the same condition as when they arrived.
The club members were also very knowledgeable and were able to answer the questions I had. I was delighted to find out that they had uncovered some interesting artefacts from my land.”
Metal detecting is an enjoyable and rewarding hobby that gets you out in the fresh air

Our members are happy to travel to the loss site and use their metal detectors to try and recover your item(s). We don’t charge for this service, but if our members have to travel a long way, we’d be grateful if you could reimburse their travel costs.
We won’t enter into any contracts, but we’ll do our best to recover your items and return them directly to you.
