Mudlarking - 39 - Little bottles
Sep. 1st, 2025 08:33 pmA lunchtime mudlarking, opposite what looked like a cruise ship. A few tourists were on the foreshore taking selfies.
I found two small glass bottles - the first was probably used for ink, but it now sadly has a hole in it. The second, perhaps an apothecary bottle of some kind or for essence. It has R 13 on the bottom so might be from Ravenhead.
Both bottles are probably from the early 1900s and are the most intact things I've found so far!
The rusty thing is some kind of hook.



(You need a permit to search or mudlark on the Thames foreshore.)
