In this guide-that’s-not-a-guide, metal detectorist cousins Ellie and Lucie explore their local landscape, getting to grips with the hobby, history and themselves along the way.

‘Enchanting and visceral’ DR MADELEINE PELLING

‘Brilliantly witty and magnificently down to earth’ DR REBECCA STRUTHERS

‘A joyful account of unearthing history, one discovery at a time’ SALLY COULTHARD

'An uplifting dive into the world of metal detecting' LARA MAIKLEM

'A joyful read, brimming with personal experience and unique insight’ HELEN CARR

Beginning with their first meeting in over 20 years at their grandfather’s home in Lincolnshire, the two cousins – Eleanor and Lucilla – quickly learn that each has a fascination with unearthing historic artifacts, which will set them off on their metal detecting journey …

Over many weeks and months spent digging countless holes, the pair make startling discoveries: about the objects they find and what they tell us about our ancestors, about themselves and who they are as people, and about the power of community, as they forge connections with local villagers, detectorists and history lovers along the way.

This charming tale of (self-)discovery will capture the hearts and minds of those seeking escapism through the buried history that we walk over every day.

Quality item at a very reasonable price.
Size: X-Large, Color: Black Red
I've gone with the coofandy brand for the past few years. They make good quality shirts at a reasonable price and the fit is usually consistent. They're a little difficult to get the packing wrinkles out but it can be done. I wish they would label what style each shirt is because they make several different ones. Overall very satisfied.

Cool Cuban Shirt
Size: Large, Color: Black Dark Gray
Looks nice and lightweight. I hand washed it and it turned out well. I used an iron to lightly press it. Overall the wrinkles were not bad. Would recommend

I just wish it wasn't vacuum packed.
Size: Large, Color: Black Light Brown
If the shirt wasn't vacuum packed to introduce bad creases/wrinkles, this would be a 5 star review. For the price, this is a nice and comfortable shirt. The thickness is really good for a polyester/spandex blend shirt; it's the right thickness for a summer shirt (because polyester doesn't breath at all). The rather small amount of spandex makes it just stretchy enough to give when moving. It wears a little like a fitted shirt, but it's not too tight at all for a bigger guys. It's not a loose fitting shirt, but it still feels like the correct size (my size was large). Note: This does have a bit of a V-Neck style, there's no button for the neck and the highest button is lower than most shirts. Unless you've a good iron with a steam feature, you're going to have a hard time safely getting rid of the wrinkles/creases from the vacuum packaging. This is a delicate fabric blend and high temperatures will permanently ruin it. I tried to quick wash and low temp dry in a machine with no results. Using a good iron on delicates/synthetics heat setting wasn't quite hot enough to undo the creases. Several steam blasts did wonders, but this was a time consuming process. You might get away using a drying machine at a higher heat for a short burst, but it's a risk. The stitching is good for the panels and arms. The different colors are different pieces of materials and not just dyes. The stitching at the bottom of the shirt, however, is jagged; not terrible, but it's a blemish.

Vintage shirt goes great with vintage cars!
Size: Large, Color: Black Dark Gray
Loved it for my husband, we have vintage cars. It’s the perfect look, but I bought him 3 from this company and he chose 2 out of the three. Great shirts
