Hi all,
I'm new to digging bottles, and naturally, I've got some questions. I've found that bottle digging is something my wife and kids enjoy doing too, so its definitely important to me to pursue the hobby. I have access to an 1830s farmhouse and have permission to locate and dig the privy. In theory, once its located (with a probe), does it make more sense to dig directly over where the opening was...or does it make more sense to dig right next to it and then go into the privy from the side? From everything I've read, listened to, and watched so far...I haven't been able figure that one out. Thanks in advance!
Cheers!
