George at a past metal detecting rally

Welcome to our website!

Free Time Promotions Ltd is a company owned and run by Mr Ian Smith and Mr George R Johnstone. We are organising several metal detecting rallies in the North of England this year, under the banner "Ploughed and Rolled Metal Detecting Rallies". Please read our disclaimer.

Our recent rally at Upper Dunsforth was a great success, with wonderful weather all weekend. Our marquees were also a great success with a bar and food in one and trade stalls in the other.

We are looking forward to next year, where it is our intention to again provide facilities of the highest standard for families to enjoy a fantastic metal detecting weekend.

A special thank you goes out to the farmers, without whom, our rally wouldn't have been possible.

This is how things looked on Saturday evening from the camping field.

We'd like to thank the trade stalls for putting on a very good show.
