Search For Lost School With The Equinox 900 Metal Detector. Can We Find Anything Here?

Today we go in search of a lost forgotten old school. Built in the 1880s to cater to the local children and learning in the area, I am sure it will have some great history to unearth...we just have to find it first!

What an adventure Luke - great research mate

[@DigItDetecting]

I'm really glad you enjoyed watching this hunt @The Gold Rush Guy this would have to of been one of my favorite adventures to top off the end of the year! The research, the exploring and then the coins and relics found...it's what I live for😁⛏️🤝

[@waynearmstrong5233]

Ive got a lot of reviewing to do Luke, its been a while since I commented, on your video's, I will remedy that when i can get back into my normal routine, Trust you to stumble across a bottle dump, the only things i manage to stumble across is fallen branches and my own feet! Thanks for an excellent journey and heaps of fun, Be seeing you in 2024, Same Luke time, Same Luke channel! Cheers Mate!

[@DigItDetecting]

Thanks so much for joining us all tonight @wayne armstrong what a great little school site to hunt and one that we definitely need to spend a lot more time hunting and exploring to understand for future!...Trust me to hit on the bottle dump too and it did not take me long😆 Thankfully I did not have a large enough bag on me at the time to take any of the bottles and it turns out most of what we dug, I already have. Next time we get back I'm sure there will be someone with me who will want them and more though! Take good care of yourself Wayne! I really appreciate your support🙏 Happy New Year and I really look forward to seeing you again for more great Adventures in 2024 mate🤝🙂🙂⛏️

[@DigItDetecting]

Hello there @Ray Dovey thanks so much for watching mate. What a great little school site to hunt and explore. I thoroughly enjoyed researching and learning all about this place and then to discover coins relics and even old bottles is so cool😁 You are a great man Ray and I really appreciate your support🙏 I wasn't able to get those TID charts out before holidays either mate...so now have something special for you coming in the mail for new year! I'm sure you will really enjoy🙂 cheers again👍🤝⛏️

[@SamWolfandCo.fossickandfind]

The clear glass conical shaped bottle is a "CLAG"/"CLAGG" glue bottle not an ink bottle , going by what was in use in primary schools when I went to school , These came with a brush later incorporated in the lid prior to that it was a tin lid you had to make a hole for the brush . Perhaps if you have a photo of the old school with the eucalypts in view you may be able to determine where the main structure of the school was, or there could even be a few boundary markers which would be on record if it was a gazetted school of that era. Yeah bottle dumps with some age to them are interesting later one tend to have the usual white beauty cream jars and an array of you name it's , The blue jars and medicine bottles seem to be scarce on that site which would indicate a household rubbish dump. Gaiters on next time OK!! Cheers Mate👍👍👍😎💨🏴‍☠☮☮☕☕💡🌈😊

[@grandmakellymcdonald]

Let’s go, let’s go treasure and adventure👵🇺🇸✌️🌺💕🌎🎉

[@DigItDetecting]

How exciting was this hunt @I Dig It Melbourne I loved every minute researching and exploring this old school site. The coins, relics and bottles were all just a bonus😁 Next time I return I will be sure to let you know to and invite a few other members to join us and really explore this site. We just need to be careful of snakes when doing so😄 Happy New Year's to you and the family, stay safe and enjoy😊🎉

[@lisar8347]

Great Luke !! Enjoyed watching you explore an old site👍⚒️👍

[@DigItDetecting]

Thanks so much @Lisa R I had so much fun researching, locating on a map and then exploring this new school site! And one that I will definitely be back to again in future. I think this would also be a great site you would love to explore with me next time🙂⛏️⛏️

@@DigItDetecting nah I think I'm busy that day 😆

[@DigItDetecting]

Let me guess @Darren Norman it's the cat excuse again...🤣🤣

[@danceswithhector5867]

Hi Luke, I know this particular spot! I won't name it, but it's not even 10 minutes from where I live. It's been more than 12 months since I had a look around there - knowing there was a school site somewhere deep within - you are a lot braver than I would be going right into it!

[@DigItDetecting]

Hi there @DanceswithHector thanks so much for watching! What a great little site this is, amazing that you only live a few mins away too🙂 If you would ever like to join me on another detect there, then be sure to sing out for future! I will scare the snakes away for the both of us😁⛏️

[@JosipKolenik]

Thanks for bring us along with you. What a site and the potential in detecting that old school. Love you finds and look forward to seeing what you dig out in the future. Keep up the great work and see you on the next one. Cheers mate 👌👌👌👍👍👍👍🤜🤛

[@DigItDetecting]

I'm really glad you enjoyed watching this hunt @joe kolenik I had so much fun researching and then exploring this new site and I reckon after visiting, we have lots more to do here in future! And I reckon we need to go deeper with the bottle pit too! Cheers heaps Joe, catch you on the next mate👍🤝⛏️

[@barbarahinge7098]

Very interesting. Cant wait to see what else comes out next time

[@DigItDetecting]

How awesome was this hunt @Barbara Hinge I had so much fun researching and then exploring this old school site. We will definitely be back again soon to clean up the bottles and locate more history😊⛏️

[@DetectingOz]

Great research Luke to discover that old school site.Good to find a few coins and relics there plus the old bottle dump.Cheers.

[@DigItDetecting]

Thanks heaps @DetectingOz I thoroughly enjoyed researching and exploring this old school site. I am pretty certain we are only just touching on the surface just yet to. With over 100 years of history there has to be lots more to discover and learn about this site🙂 Thanks again for watching Gary and Happy New Years mate🤝 I look forward to sharing more for fun adventures for 2024 and having you with us enjoying🤝⛏️

[@derekthomassen5407]

[@DigItDetecting]

100% @brett Ellis this school has some great age so best to double check everything that comes out from this site😁⛏️

[@RockinRack]

Is there any resources online for finding old maps online?

[@brettellis1837]

A TRUE BUSH TURKEY'S PARADISE WILD AS THAT.

[@DigItDetecting]

Haha it sure is a wild place to detect @brett Ellis I am sort of surprised we didn't step on a snake as well on this hunt mate😂 More work to do in future at this school, but next time we will have the snake gaiters on👌⛏️
