Has anyone done any cellar hole digging? As mostly a small dump digger (so far) I've yet to attempt anything on this scale. I did a test dig in a filled in cellar hole yesterday and found a lot of glass and pottery in a small area. Found part of Foley's Kidney and Bladder Cure and neck of an old beer bottle with stopper and wire still intact and found one whole plain glass bottle. This would be a big area to dig and I have permission to dig it, but I'm wondering what I may be getting into. Lots of hand molded brick in there. It's not the type of dig that can be worked in a weekend. Site is 1840 to 1890's and I've found a couple of Bitter's bottles in this general area. (Stomach Bitters, Hop Bitters and Electric Bitters.)
