There's something stunningly beautiful about multiple generations of modern humans getting so thrilled by finding artifacts of their ancestors.

“You can get a fly paper for that”.

Nothing like spending a day with friends doing something you all love. A 90 yr old newspaper, left to the elements and it has not disintegrated!😮
Rebecca Topken I know. Buried deep underground, it makes you wonder how long plastic REALLY takes to break down, if paper is ok after 90 years in the mud!
And it was burned around the edges!!
its nice to see this group of girls out and about ,healthy and smiling again simon, a great day with some pretty cool finds,thanks for the trip,please be careful of this damn virus
I've always wanted to visit England and now I want to visit England and dig through old trash piles! Great vids, man! Greetings from the USofA!

I hated for this video to end. It was such a pleasure to watch. Good finds and good friends. It doesn't get better than that.
Thanks Sharon, I was worried it was too long!
I love the wonky bottles. They remind me of the story of the wonky donkey, you should find it here on TH-cam your nieces may enjoy it. It has to be the one where the Scottish granny is reading it’s very funny. Have a great week.

We have something like that in NY, it’s called Dead Horse Bay for obvious reasons. And in the late 1800s, early 1900s the beach was covered with rubble from torn down buildings and people thrash. Now you can find old bottles, dishes, sometimes silverware, jewelry. Lots of cool stuff.
Watching this video today, brings so many happy memories for me. My brother and I used to spend hours digging in old dumps, in Idaho USA, sadly lost my brother in horrible accident this year. Thank you for bringing back the memories, love all finds today. I would love to have that insulator to ad to my collection.
One of the best channels on TH-cam
john t ah thanks John
A fantastic hour of Simon and friends is a rare treat on a Sunday! A great assortment of finds with some very special dump divers. I do think my favorite quote of the video came from Flo (perhaps), who said, "A kewpie going poopie." You guys are the best and thanks for letting us tag along for the hunt, Simon.

That child, Cecelia has an eye and is a keeper. Wow the things she found. She is so young but so awesome. I'm impressed. Please tell her your youtubers think she is awesomely grand! She found the very best things!
Yes, I was impressed with her finds too. Glad Mum decided to keep some of her finds. I thought her stuff was the best. I do like the historic bottles, but I would much rather keep the bits & bobs of tile, glass, & ceramic pieces that Cecilia found. I would have gone along on this trip, & kept all the pieces that the mudlarks threw back!!
I Love seeing You’re channel here in S. Ontario, Canada. Thanks again for making you’re channel.
WOW I would love a site like this one!!! So much stuff and nice early stuff mixed in!
You guys are all sweet and kind to each other, really impressive. Wish I lived there and was part of the club. The little girl has a good eye! Her mom should help her make something from her finds!
I could never go to a place like that cause i would be bringing all the bottles home.
That's the point 😃
I'd end up having to rent a shipping container to send it all home...lol
One day I’ll live over there and can go digging with y’all!!!! My life’s dream!!!!
Mine too!
Oh man, where is this place? be a dream come true,,,,
A fun and interesting treasures. The beauty in bottle designs of the past lends knowledge that older times art was as important in design as the product itself.
The decoupaged pieces are remarkable,I am very impressed.
None of this would be possible without the work of a little girl’s magic wand😊
cecilia has some terrific finds..they were very interesting.
I wish I could see your blue bottles collection ... I have a blue vases collection (around 60 !)
Your dumps/tips are the best★I won't be able to tear me away from that dump! That bird feeder can still be used with some imagination :)
I so very much enjoy these videos...all your adventures, with or without friends. Thanks for taking us along.
Thanks!
@@Sifinds Cuffs is a very Sexy Man !
I would have a hay day at that dump. In fact I would need a dump truck for my haul! Haha!
I love all of the unusual things you and your friends find! It was so nice to see your friend and her young daughter-mudlover in training!
I like to see your group mudlarking, bottle digging,etc. Such a fun group.
Thanks Kath!
I've dug loads of stuff out of my garden, very addictive. You stick to a 1 metre patch and just when you gone down 2 feet, dug out the edges and are just about to stop, you find an amazing piece of blue and white! Most sentimental has been the Victorian ladies boots, knowing they've been up and down our stairs.
Love the things you are giving away😍then, ooooh, another poison bottle😁great site for bottles and surprises
THIS IS WHAT DREAMS ARE MADE OF! I live in the US and we had a dump that was pushed over the edge of the saltwater Bank for forever so you could just use a paintbrush or anything and hang off the cliff by the Bramble if you had good gloves on and the finds were incredible! Things were whole things were untouched because of the way that they were entombed. My brother would find amazing things and his friend would find amazing things and sell them. I got to spend a whole day there but I don't know where my things went it was so long ago. I finally got to go back there and it took my mother-in-law to be and I a very long time to get down there there was at least 12 in of glass Pebbles ringing as they touched each other from the water rolling them. Keep in mind this is on a quiet day when the tide is calm. The glass goes 5 ft deeper more and there's a shipwreck out swimming range for the divers to go through from Asia somewhere. The sad thing is is when we finally got down there and we were getting ready to start picking a man came and shooed us off the property! In Washington state you can't usually own private . You can own the on the land above it but down below by the water usually cannot be owned. But he insisted, the first time I heard the woman I was with swear and boy did she let go! We could see thousands of things around us delicate little vases. Cups teapots dolls complete it's endless! Alas that time is over so I'm going to have to save and come visit you as soon as possible I can just see me trying to get this home to the US? There must be a way all the dumps in the u.s. in my range are gone. I literally dream of this. I crave doing this I would be there for days I'd camp out. Thank you for this I stayed awake an hour longer just to watch this so it's now almost 4 a.m. Perry history I promised myself to go to sleep early.
thank you for another fabulous video! even if this one did hurt a little.
Gomez addams you should go back to that place but to the tax office and see if the land is actually owned someone may be trying save it all for themselves and get in writing from tax office then go to local police and get permisdion to be on that spot of land and if its owned go to owner and ask to go there to preserve and not make a mess and possibly offer to pay 20 bucks for a few hours of looking to preserve the past...i would do that ..Good Luck.
“You lick the ice cream, and then you get cholera.”...aah the joys of Victorian life.
Matt Kustom Kostumes haha
Which is why all the Victorians are dead now. :-)
Joe Cook-Giles huh....I chalked it up to their gorgeous green arsenic-laden floral wallpaper. Lovely, isn’t it?
@@mattkaustickomments Matt!!! I was researching modern floors, and found that some were toxic!!!
Gordana Zakula, there was a major recall/class action suit filed against Lumber Liquidators ( I think) due to the obscene amount of formaldehyde and God-knows-what chemicals in the laminate flooring their corrupt Chinese suppliers were sending them. People were falling ill left and right. I saw an expose where the reporters filmed undercover in the Chinese factory. The factory owner just slapped on fake “Certified Compliant With State of California Regulations” stickers on the box and called it good. The American CEO was fired for not doing quality control. Same thing happened with cheap Chinese Gypsum Wallboard aka Drywall several years back - people got sick from the poison those greedy bastards made the wallboard out of.
The striped tile looks like it may have come from a swimming pool changing room.
Definitely some kind of wet walkway, my mother's drive and entryway have tiles like that one.
Wonderful video! How nice it was an hour long! Loved it! ❤️ Thank you for sharing everyone's finds...take care!
Love the humor and energy lots of love and genuine happiness. Love seeing you guys rummage around.😁
SaHara Clark Thanks sweetie!
Old disabled house bound dusty rusty rockhound here: Hello from Michigan, U.S.A. Today's video is one of the funnest to watch. So much variety in types of finds and so many relics in good condition. It's also interesting to hear have creatively the artifacts will be re-purposed.
Wowee , Simon, even a regular January finding-day is a great one for you ! Possibly other good finds there, where you were. congratulations for unearthing and bringing the caudle cup back to life. It is so well-made for a pewter item. Love those brass pieces too. Exceptional work !
Excellent video. Amused by the newspaper date-search audio timing..."Aaargh! F'd it up......bleep!!" What a fabulous group of people, and fascinating finds!
Such good finds.
Thanks for this, great finds.
Absolutely wonderful to walk into a bottle collectors kitchen that has a large window with shelves in the window space all crammed with different coloured bottles and jars and the sun shining behind them, absolutely brilliant!
That was an excellent video, thank you Simon and friends - what a lovely bunch of people. All those fantastic finds (the Dick Whittington pipe was spectacular). That is one hell of an amazing dump, I'm tempted to move there and called myself Stig!
30:28 that bottle is beautiful! ..and Flo is gorgeous 😍
Love this dump , it just keeps giving up treasures👍so much
Great adventure, thanks for taking us along.
Anna is brilliant, I love her excitement 💖😊
It certainly looks as if you all had a really fun day! Lots of lovely things found, makes me wish I could have been with you!😊
Thanks,. You were there in spirit!
My husband and I yelled AHHHHH when you accidentally broke the poison bottle lol absolutely love these videos...it's paradise thanks for sharing!
HaHa, yeah what a klutz!
Are you interesting in buying some blue poison bottles I have 100 for sale all different
Well I think Celia found the best stuff defo the prettiest items 🥰
I use old newspapers to find writing prompts. Awesome findings.
I wouldn't be able to carry enough of them out!! The bottles you guys tose out as plain we dig all day just to find one! Lol
Lots of history in those hills. Good job.
I think if I had found Monica's horse torso I would put one of the creepy doll's heads and four doll's legs on it.
The Art Nouveau bottle does look very much like something Lalique could have made.
Not Lalique. It's Loetz or if not then Pallme konig or kralik
Great to see London and keep having fun !
That’s got to be the best bottle dump I have seen on all of these channels!
Yes that Harlesden Hotel is still there, not far from me. Wish I had that bottle. Great find Si.
Love your friends all down to earth and unafraid to get themselves dirty for their treasures!!! As always wonderful to watch all your adventures and unique finds!! :)
arlene gariepy Thanks!
Realllly cool video!! All had truly amazing finds!!!!
The findings are wonderful. Some one's trash is some one's treasure.
Awesome finds. Wish I was there digging
I have got an old wooden toy horse from the 1700s or possibly earlier, in good condition. The remainder you found looks to me like it could have been similar. If you want to restore it Icould send you a picture.
I think the diagonal is the bottom on the tile. Great Penny Lick.
I found this episode particularly entertaining as there was a “Dick Whittington pipe” discovered by your young friend. The name immediately rang a bell, as my mother, who was born in Brighton, was an actress before and during WWII, and played a major role
In the Pantomime “Dick Whittington” at The Finsbury Park Empire in the early ‘40’s. Her stage name was Rosalie Allen and the male lead was George Jackley. I’m trying to attach a copy of the program, but having no luck.Also, I’ve been a Metal detecting treasure hunter for 30 years here in CA and am often envious of the great antiquity of the items dug in Britain. Keep up the great mudlarking. I’m living vicariously through you!
Roger in California.
I wish Toronto had cool places like this! I would LOVE to do this!
Hi I just live east of Toronto and in ajax by duffins creek there a few places along the creek that have really old bottles dumps and also a old vintage house u can dig for bottles and stuff I've found some nice bottles and a few silver rings with my metal detector also missauga has a few .
What lovely finds! The pipes, doll heads, bottles, loved seeing all of them! 😊
Lisa Uptagrafft Thanks!
Tiles are good to put hot pots on, the Cupid doll could sit on a plant pot.. lovely finds...flamboyant neck - eye wash
Awesome finds! That place is so cool, I just want to be there on the hunt!♡ Just a fun time!!
Thanks Jenny!
Amazing finds at this site! I love the little purple bottle with flat sides - beautiful!
this would be a dream for my 8 year old daughter, unfortunately here in the states we dont have such things that date back so far accessible locally, so I am content with your videos for me and my wee one to watch and dream, cheers friends
Dad INC you’d be surprised! I just went fossil hunting on the peace river in Florida and found hundreds of interesting fossils and sharks teeth. Would be awesome to find things like they do in the bottle dumps and the Thames, though.
Loved that thank you for sharing.
Cecelia is queen of the bottle dump today!
Oh yes
That black glass bottle you wondered about that didn't have a seam is what is called a turn mold bottle. They were blown in a mold and then they turned it while the glass was still molten . Usually there are faint concentric rings on the bottle which indicate it was turned. Turn mold bottles could not have embossing on them they always had paper labels. Bottles like the one you found usually contained some kind of spirits. Love your videos Si. It's inspiring me to do some digging again.
The real treasure for me was finding these videos. Greetings from Florida 💖
Those white milk glass marmalade jars are perfect for holding utensils to cook. I would want the real jars, with no decoupage. The real milk glass is lovely. But Si you do what you want but it's better natural. I am like you Si I love the aqua glass the best. It is just beautiful.
@JennyWinters, I too prefer the jars "as is". I decoupage things & love all sorts of paper arts, but I can think of a million things to do with those little pots. Also, the newspaper bits; after being dried out, are coveted by paper artists, scrapbookers, junk journaler's, etc. They will buy just the newspaper bits alone. So @Si-Finds Thames Mudlark, if you don't have the time to decoupage, consider selling the paper on your Etsy. Google "ephemera" & you will discover an entire niche market. Included in "ephemera" are newspaper, ticket stubs or brochures, postcards, old maps, address books, ledgers & logs, receipts. Yellowing, staining & torn pieces are part of the charm!!
Just the greatest!
What GOOOD FINDS !!! ILOOOVE the dumps !!!!! ❤ ❤ ❤
I always enjoy these group dump-digs. They're so much fun and so many cool things are found. Thanks for sharing the adventure, Simon. :)
Malinda Thanks for watching!
what a superb day out for you and friends ,,,awsome goodies ! great to see all you finds !
i had a lovely adventure going with you today i cant wait till we go again and descover all the great things you all find right along with you!!! cheerio!
Love, love your videos! Thank you!
Wet White is used in the tanning process. Yet another great video guys.
Ugggg...so jealous! Why do I live in America? 😜 You have so much rich history there, Love these videos❤️
Simon, I've viewed an reviewed this video more than a couple times, since you posted it nearly a year ago. This remains in my top five favorites of your vids. Great day of finds, with a good group and wonderful weather, which doesn't happen every day in England. So many fun and unusual finds,, though I'm partial to the quirky leg with foot, that has the turned-up toed. Does anyone in the group have YT channels, Si?
Awesome video Si!!! That place is amazing! Thank you for taking us along!!! ❤️
Thank you! Check out the past videos too if your new to the dump!
Fantastic finds, great jobs all of you
Great finds love the car!!
I was thinking of Nic, for that pretty ceramic piece
Bottles of white stuff were used to keep white canvas tennis shoes (plimsolls) white. It was also used for white canvas fashion shoes, only worn in summer.
I cried when you left the insulator. There’s a huge market for them!
The pink/green glass item was probably a scent bottle for putting on the dressing table.
Fabulous treasures u all found. Great idea 2 decoupage the jam pots. Gives them a whole new look. Brill vid. Interesting, funny and well worth watching.👊💖
What fun old dumps are! That multicoloured object broken at the top could be simply a decorative piece like glass paperweights are. I had a feeling that little bottle was going to break.Got to be patient.
The insulator could have been the best find on the dump if it was a rare one, there's a lot of collectors especially across the pond.
The concave coloured glass bottles with the writing would make great soap dishes in a bathroom !
I love the bottle dump videos!!!
The “pedestal” looks like one of those things that the Staffordshire pottery made. It would stay on the home mantle piece and when the “man” would get home, he’d put his pocket watch in the opening at the top and then it would look like a miniature grandfather clock.
It’s difficult to tell from the video, but that’s what it reminded me of.
My friend had one in her Staffordshire collection 🙂
Beautiful bottle s love them all thay are amazing excellent video thank u Si n friend s
Raima Mohommed Thanks
Love it!!
Awesome wine bottle. The color is lovely 😊
Some great fines there and the sun's out 🤜🏻🤛🏻thks for sharing bro, enjoyed watching as always.😉👍
Si-finds making decoupage cool for 2020!
Thanks for the long vid, I love this place. I desperately want to go!
Dawn Sherratt Thanks!
A great group of friends enjoying a day of fellowship and treasurer recovery. Enjoyed your hunt and your unique and interesting finds.
Stay well all. Al. NJ. USA
Love what you did with the newspaper.
