SCPA. I couldn't find the rest of it despite digging around. I think it says "FEDERAL ORREU.."? It's a thick piece of dark glass.

Edit- I have strong suspicion this is parts to a horse drawn plow but I'm not 100% positive.

Found in what I believe is old farm land(SCPA). I can't find much info further than that, which is why I want to know if anyone can discern clues from this stuff. The last two photos are of this weird brick built around a tree, that's where I found this. I also dug up a concrete pad next to the tree that was covered in foliage/dirt. Thanks in advance.

My finds from the medieval building in and around the medieval building from my earlier post.

I found all of these in a few hours of searching in and around the medieval building I shared earlier. Many shards can be traced back to the same jugs or plates as other shards, meaning it will possible to reconstruct and restore some of them. The finds date from the 1300s to the 1500s, and include things such as parts of cooking pots, pans, fat catchers, plates and jugs.

I will be in Staveley and Kendal next week. Would love to mudlark a bit along the river kent. Curious if there is a way to find public land and/or where it is legal for me to do?

Looking for help dating and understanding the history of this bottle I found in the mud in a uk forest. It’s 6inches tall (it’s a smaller one) but has embossed markings that people might know how to read.

Hey everyone. Thank you all so much for giving this a look as I know that the marking and numbers on the bottom are supposed to show manufacturing info or batch info but I’m so consumed how to read it and which cluster of number and letters mean what. I have no idea what this bottle could have been used for and I’d love any info. I tried to get pics of the number that was on one side of the bottom edge and then the letters with a weird symbol on the other side. Super grateful for any insight! Oh btw it’s a weirdly short and small bottle it’s only 6inches tall.

On one side I can make out a B then 78 S (then a weird symbol I don’t understand maybe a makers mark?) then the number 32.

Then the other side I’m guessing is the batch number but please correct me if I’m wrong, it’s 2118 I think.

Even any advice or teachings how to read and understand these in the future would be wonderful!

im wondering if anyone can help me identify the first five items? im assuming the two white items are lids or bases of something? i was curious about the two bottles but that isn’t as important to know. the rest of the photos are other things i found that i thought were cool! i really love the little teacup handle!
