We dug a privy today.Nice stone liner,10 foot,but not a whole bottle to be found.It was all 1850s stuff.H.flask pieces,lots of busted pontils.
On that depressing note,check out the pix lol

We have another to open up tomorrow on the same lot,maybe I'll find a whole bottle to post [:D]

Day 2 another 10 foot stone lined privy 1850s on the bottom

We opened up another 10 foot stone liner today.Some keepers but not many.It was slim pickins.But I would rather dig an (older) privy with all broken stuff then a new pit or a new dump.Keep on digging!
