    Flood waters cut into the massive old dump, carrying many bottles down river and dropping them on a beach.
    I had so many finds on this 5 hour outing, that I couldn't fit them all into one video without it becoming an unwatchable mess. So it's been spread over 3 videos, I hope each one will be enjoyable.

    Hard to believe that I've been watching your videos for 3yrs. It's been long enough that this one feels new again. You've been great comfort to me; the pandemic, Charlie being diagnosed with cancer, and after being vaccinated and boosted twice, it's my turn at Covid19. Homebound; and remembering who I am, centering again. Nothing better than Tom Burleigh stream walking to get me through these times.

      Thanks Mike. I'm very much a beginner at picking up bottles, so I don't know yet what's valuable. If you have any suggestions of which ones are, (or where I can find some decent reference material), that would be very helpful. I like to learn, and I've been back 2 more times since this video series and picked up a lot more bottles. I'm glad you enjoyed the video, take care.

      @tomburleigh9261  5 років тому +2

      Oh, thank you! I was told it could be electrical cable insulation which a long time ago, even before lead shielding, was made of paper soaked in some absolutely nasty chemicals. The brass end seemed an unlikely thing to me on such a thing, but it certainly looks like a bobbin end. Thanks!

      I do enjoy going out on my own though, and a key component of my criteria for making videos is that I don't appear much in them; hands and feet are OK but I'd prefer to never be recognised in the streets... I find it so awkward when someone tells me to my face how much they like something I've done. I'm certainly going to need a partner though for my other planned channels... I can barely keep up with the comments and messages from one channel, three would certainly be too much.

I love the thrill of the hunt, and seeing all the wonderful things you find that have a history-I can relate to your enthusiasm. I also love that you remove items that are trash/dangerous-it shows you have respect for the environment. Thanks again, and I look forward to watching more from you!

    I could take a trip with you to the bottle dump every day! What fun! I’d love to go with you on a live video. I find myself talking to you and so wish you could hear me. I agree with another poster, you must go back for the Asian bowl, what a beauty. My favorite find is the small stoneware bottle, ink or cream? If you find more like that, please put them in your shop for sale. I’ll be your first customer. I really appreciate your videos, your commentary is entertaining and helps the viewer to feel a part of the hunt. Looking forward to your next trip!

    • @tomburleigh9261
      @tomburleigh9261  5 років тому +4

      Thanks Lynn... I daren't try for the Asian bowl though, it's embedded in an overhang, and it's very precarious. That overhang will fall, probably soon when the soil dries out a bit more. I don't fancy pulling out the bowl and finding out that that was enough to cause the collapse of a few tons of dump on top of me. I think the stoneware bottle was probably for cream. I do go mudlarking with friends; there's currently a waiting list of people wanting to go. :)

    Next time you go mudlarking/beachcombing you should put a couple more plastic bags in your original bag that way you can get the things you want. A good back pack would be nice too.

    • @tomburleigh9261
      @tomburleigh9261  4 роки тому +1

      I always take 2 of the plastic bags with me when I go here, I did try taking three one time and it took me an hour to stagger with them all back to the car. I am tempted to try using my nice 80 litre back-back too... but it was expensive and everything I take mudlarking gets trashed fairly quickly.

    I hope you will 1. do many more series' like this set, and 2. never reveal your locations, as they would be destroyed. To me, it is wonderful that you retrieve the bottles despite not loving them. They would only be broken sooner or later, and in this way, you can likely find them new homes. Meanwhile, your appreciation of form and pattern as always, great. Also very happy when you retrieve both the scrappable and the dangerous (lead) metals from the river. Plastics, too. Were you saying, "cooked glass?" Never heard that term before. In Nebraska, USA, we call that, "pressed glass." Fascinating language difference? Or is it something different altogether?

  • @marydegenkolb9603

    Tom, the paper tube with the brass fitting is pre Victorian home insulation for electricity, I believe. It would have been coated in a fireproof substance and used to cover or "chase" wires throughout a home. It is a pre- cloth covered wire. That is what I could find out. I'm not 100 percent sure. In the US, bottles are a very valuable commodity. You can make some serious money selling the old bottles that have the applied top, and crown top. And if it is embossed, its more valuable as are the poisons. Any tiny sample bottles 1 oz or less is very collectable here. So maybe EBay or Etsy is a shop for you to try your hand at selling.

    • @tomburleigh9261
      @tomburleigh9261  5 років тому +2

      Oh, wow... thanks for the knowledge. I'll now be very careful with it, that fireproofing stuff is toxic and I shouldn't handle it. Bottles are very collectable here in the UK too... listing some of them on Etsy is something I hope to get around to eventually. Thanks Mary.

You've got awesome findable history in the US, I watch quite a few Mudlarkers, bottle diggers, metal detectors, explorers, and treasure hunters from the US on youtube. Next idea is a return , at least for the moment, to releasing one video at a time... three over the Easter Weekend was a little much for me. Might not be a brilliant idea... but I have some ideas for non-mudlarking videos which I'll do at some point. One of them might be pretty good. Until next time, take care. Tom

    Great video....the tip is a bit late prob 30s 40s which is why it hasnt been hammered much but even these tips can oroduce.The seam at the bottom of the bank will most likely provide oldest finds...keep up the good work

      Yep, the first maps with the dump in are from 1930, and it was closed in the 60's. But there is rumour that there was another dump next to it too... older. I've found a few applied top bottles downriver so it is possible, (and there is record of a Roman legion having a crossing point roughly where that beach is too, so it's not inconcievable that there are good things to find with a metal detector).

      Maybe a super round-up at the end of the year... though I will have passed a lot of finds along to other collectors and creators, as well as re-storing some things in idiosyncratic styles and putting them up for sale. So what's left might not be such a fabulous display.

    Another wonderful video. I certainly don't blame you for trying to keep that location secret as it looks to supply many a future lark. I really love the 'honor' you are giving Squashed Horse. Although he is not my aesthetic, I am glad he was found by someone who likes him so well. God bless.

    About the rolled up paper with a brass fitting at the end, I could be wrong but each time you mentioned it my mind wander to a player piano roll. They were rolled cardboard with brass fittings on the ends and sometimes Bakelite fittings on the ends.

    Wonderful bottle trilogy!!! I have never seen so many lovely items. I would love to sit in one spot and gently dig about. Thank you so much for sharing your treasure hunt. You are getting better and better! Would really love to see that asian bowl clean and up close, even if it is broken you do collect pieces for your art projects. Well done!

    • @tomburleigh9261
      @tomburleigh9261  5 років тому +2

      Digging on that beach is something I'd love to try, there's probably a whole load just below the surface. I'd quite like to metal detect there too... though I'd never get a permission from the landowner. Afraid the asian bowl was in a very precarious place, embedded in the bottom of a ready to drop overhang. I don't really know what it would take to bring it all crashing down, but I didn't want to give it an excuse.
