Bottle digging sites in Sheffield

[King-29 10]

Graves park? ReallY? I wouldn't have thought they'd allow it. Just up the road from me. Whereabouts?

I've had a few bottles from the tip in graves park bout 20 years ago, just off the main road about halfway up Meadowhead hill.

It is easy to criticise or ridicule things that we don't understand. 

 

I like to look beyond the interest. Get to know the type of people with different unusual or eccentric interests. There has been over 13,000 views of the topic.

 

Myself  and Metalcliff  are up for a bit of digging, preferably  in the Rotherham area. Either PM me or email Metalcliff.

I’ve got an old bottle that’s small with raised lettering on it from a wine merchants in Sheffield that I found when I excavated an area at the back of my shop in Attercliffe. It’s in my shop so I will take a picture of it and post it on here as someone did tell me to keep hold of it as it is a really nice piece.
