Good job cleaning the finds. I like that hook never seen one like that before i wonder what it was usd for. I almost forget you found that flower vial even better it's silver must be worth a few quid scrap value

nice finds,and I think the Mills is more likely to be Mills Equipment Company that manufactures web equipment normally marked MeCo

You look like someone just nicked your MD. Want me to come round and sort 'em out for you ?

PS Nice finds
Hi Steve,
I see what you mean but you've mistaken the look. That's the look of a proud man John's dug some amazing finds.
In fact we've been thinking of changing 'Whitehunters' name to 'LuckyDigger' Because if it's there he'll find it!
Well done John you certainly put in the hours and deserve the rewards, I like the picture of your finds all recorded together.
Roll on the next time.

I revisited the site yesterday for only a couple of hours. As always I found a few bits and pieces mainly 1930's/40's bottles etc. But I thought you might like to see this, I pulled a large tin out and this greeted my eyes. It was underneath but welded by the rust to tins etc behind it and took a little work to free it up. It's yet another British fire watchers helmet thats now a total of 7 helmets from this site, 5 of which are Fire Watchers type.
I found this British water bottle on the previous visit together with the other finds shown below.
When I found this razor it was brown and rusty, but I left it in a derust fluid for a week and this is the result. It's still strong and Im sure could still be used today. I've not heard of Ever Ready razors?
Finally I also found this spoon which appears to be part of a slide together cutlery set, perhaps for camping or even military. I've never seen this patent type before.
Thats it for now.

Cracking in-ground shot LS, you have done a great job cleaning the others finds as you say that razor looks brand new.
