Never found anything valuable - plenty of tennis balls, frisbees, footballs etc. Once found a kid's microscooter in a beech hedge. It had obviously been thrown on top of the hedge a year or two earlier, as it was rusted-up and well and truly "grown in". Left it on the pavement, was gone within an hour.

We paved a patio and swimming pool surround with old York flags. A couple of years later I was asked to lift and replace a slab by a doorway because it's dish was holding water.  Having lifted it I found my comb chisel entombed in the bedding muck.  Better than finding a Roman coin!

I did a clearance many years ago.  Most of the garden had been well maitained for a number of years but there was a really overgrown patch at the bottom.  A nabour informed me it got like that after the previous owners wife disappeared!
