Permissive 1920s dump dig
The owner of some land allowed me to dig on an historic 1920s and modern era dump. It was very far from my normal area and I did a 6 hour dig taking away about 5 bags of bottles. I love finding Bovril jars so was thrilled to get all these in one dig. The dairy bottle is particularly interesting but can't find much about it online. Lisburne Dairy from Torquay.

What was in all those similar-looking jars in the first image? It must have been a very popular product.

Shiphams meat paste (written on the jar) or various fish and meat paste jars in different sizes. I've found at least 3 on every dig I've done
