The site of the town of Old Sarum, the earliest settlement of Salisbury in England, has been targeted several times by illegal metal detectors
Ancient locations such as the site of the Battle of Hastings and Old Sarum in Wiltshire have been targeted by illegal detecting, the organisation said.There were more than double the number of metal detecting activities recorded in 2019 than two years ago, it added.Chief executive Kate Mavor said the organisation was working with local police and Historic England but also needed the public's help - to report any suspicious activity on or near English Heritage sites.
"We may never see or fully understand the objects taken or damaged because they have been removed from their original sites with no care or record as to their history or context." There have been multiple incidents at Old Sarum, the site of Salisbury's original cathedral, and Wiltshire Constabulary has appealed for witnesses.
Perhaps English Heritage ought get working these sites rather than taking handouts for doing little
Then every historic site should be your priority to be cleaned of any artefacts that are in the ground, this way no one else will go there, Free greed will loose us of our heritage of items of history
So English Heritage can find the gold?

Fears for children's homes as debts riseSix of the 10 largest providers of children's homes and foster care are in debt, a report suggests. Time to tackle the problem at source. Prevention is better than cure. Perhaps the best course of action is not to have them run by the private sector. In 2020 why are people still producing children they don’t want and/or abuse? If they cannot use contraception they should be sterilised, male and female, so they don’t produce more people who will have problems all their life. Unpopular with lefties I know
