I always imagined our ancestors eating a more wholesome diet than us, yet it seems many of them were constipated. I wonder why. Lovely finds and brilliant research. Love the chunky glass lamp thing from the steam engine.

@bluesingmusic3443 3 года назад

When I was younger, I read The Anabasis (sp?) Of Alexander (Alexander the Great) seems every time he was ill he was given a "physic". I asked my mom, she said, "Its a laxative". Sees the problem of "irregularity" is mired in the depths of mankind's ancient past.

@DiscoveryClaudia 3 года назад

It's because what they thought "good food" was is food that looked "good". For example, good bread was absolutely white, meaning they added things like chalk in it to be lighter. And there's worst ingredients in many recipes they had.

Your random white glazed square tile, is a ceramic bathroom fitting and would have been used on a sink or bath to blank off a tap hole. Most places only had one tap on the sink providing cold water, but many sinks, especially later ones, were provided with two tap holes. I can remember seeing some of these in the sculleries of old houses.and even into 1930's era. The larger of the two salt glazed pots is possibly Topp's Furniture Cream. I once found a bottle with the remains of a green label still in-situ. Great finds and a great day out for you both.

Beautiful bottles under that tree!! You should bring grabbers for them. I have a great one for getting things I can’t reach from my wheelchair. It’s very light and the “fingers” are set very wide apart to accommodate cans and they have a silicone covering so they never slip. It would be really handy, though something extra to carry with you.

@Mudhooks 3 года назад

Every time you pass on a bottle or waffle, I’m beside myself - “Take it!!! Take it!!” But at some point, you are going to run out of room for your treasures. I have a couple of rooms you can use but they are just a few thousand miles too far for you…

@NorthernMudlarks 3 года назад

That would be amazing if that glass ring is from a steam engine... It seems more likely to be from a small oil lamp. I love steam locomotives etc! That mini stoneware ointment is gorgeous! I found a broken Whittaker jam pot too nearby to me, but I need to go back and have a thorough scrape about 🤔 you guys really do have the best dumpsites!

@NorthernMudlarks 3 года назад

It's either from a drip oiler or a miner's safety lamp - although miner's lamp glass is usually narrower. The glass is too thick for a normal lamp xx

@abigailhowes5944 3 года назад

I believe the price that was a glass short section that was open on both ends night be a short chimney for an Almaden burner used in a kerosine refrigerator. The burner was in the back of the fridge, down in the bottom back. It would heat a unit for refrigerator. They had an odd triangular tank you would pull out to fill with kerosine you sing a special funnel. You regulated the strength of the cooling by adjusting the hight of the flame, like an oil or paraffin lamp. These refrigerators were very quiet as you never heard any compressor running. Just like "modern" fridges, they had a freezer section and made ice cubes just like electric fridges. These fridges are still made but very expensive now
