Could I reverse the question and ask which parts you feel are unreasonable or uneccessary? I have always understood that responsible detectorists recorded their findspots, so presumably this was done either by tape or GPS? It is neither difficult nor expensive to obtain a large scale OS map of the given area, and again I had presumed that this was standard practice, along with a bit of background research. Again I presume that you produce a sketch survey of the field in order to plot your finds.
We owe the dead nothing but the truth.
