Barrie has grown so much don't imagine there is much left of those dumps now , never hear of anyone finding old bottles in barrie although imagine there is still some there

i pretty much only find Brown's Beverages Gravenhurst bottles here despite being close to simcoe county , maybe found a couple from Orillia over the years but most were in water so not really any paint left and a semi broke embossed hinds bottle
