Not detected for a while but I went online to download a Crown Foreshore permit for the bit of Northumberland we were visiting with the grandchildren this year for our bucket and spade holiday.
Please to report that there is no longer a requirement to obtain a permit for any Crown Foreshore, you would still require permission for any private beaches but no longer for the Crown stretches which are the majority.
Good news but I forgot to pack the detector.!

I did notice a guy detecting on the Newbiggin beach though one day that we were down there.
