Hello;

Your bottle was made by John Kilner & Sons (1857-1937) in Wakefield , Yorkshire, England. It probably dates 1880s-1910. 1693 is mold number.

Hi Noel;

Sounds like you have a liquor bottle. Without embossing, they are very common & have little value, especially if damaged, as yours is. But if you like it-great!
Good luck bottle digging....
