One of the earliest references to water dowsing appears in the fifth century BC, in the work of the Greek historian Herodotus, who wrote of a nomadic people using willow diving rods.
It is a technique still used in many rural areas. Farmers might employ a dowser to locate water on their land, perhaps for their cattle or for use in barns which are being converted into homes.
Debbie Manners finds out how Sheila Hedges, a dowser who has lived on Exmoor for twenty years, discovered she had the ability to find water.
