How I wish that even a tiny percentage of the bottles here were whole. Most of the stuff is just shards. We do not go delving into our soil anywhere without gloves on, it is just too dangerous.
Oddest things we found were 5 cobblers lasts, all broken (the lasts, silly, not the cobblers). One perhaps, but FIVE? My grandfather was an Army boot maker and he was stationed around here in WW1 so we wondered if there was a facility somewhere in the vicinity.
Saddest thing of all is that the hand made Tudor age bricks which came from the original house and which were re-used in the foundations of the Georgian houses are 90% broken. They are very expensive to buy if you are doing restoration work.
And back to the bottles. The most frequently found, still whole bottles are those tiny odd shaped Vosene Hair shampoo ones. Hard to smash up I suppose.
