And on tonight’s conveyor belt…. 😆

After yesterday’s sun, this morning we were back to a far more normal misty damp morning, so we headed back off to the Court House site.

And boy did it keep us busy! We dug 37 scrappy bits of lead plus the usual musket balls, a gorgeous livery button, made by Armfield of Birmingham. 2 lead weights joined together, Spindle whorl, a very small lid, I think it says Sour on it?

My first coin was a silver hammered, then a Cartwheel Penny, and a 1921 penny. While we were digging a gorgeous pair of horses and carriage went by, so I got a couple of lovely pics. Am loving the tiny mushrooms, they are everywhere so took some more pics and the dew on the cobwebs was also so pretty.

The only downside to this hobby I can see is the poor worms 😬 I feel so bad when I accidentally decapitate them 😔

My investigation reveal the Livery Button is likely to be associated to The Turnor family. They were a local land owning family whose estate was not far from us xx
