Victorian era ladies leather boot

[TreasureAnn]

Last year I found the front part of this boot, and today I found another piece under a tree root. Some pottery shards as well. All in the backyard. The soil has preserved the boot quite well! Happy with my find.

Congratualtions on the your find!

I bet that backyard has many more interesting finds for you to discover!

Wow, I have heard of being given the boot but this takes the cake! Very cool find.

That's cool. I found a few in the bottom of a well that was filled in the 1860s. Since they were down in the water table, they were in pretty good shape. I hope you find some more great artifacts!

Thanks! I've found quite a bit, old bottles, poison bottles, all kinds of iron. There was a blacksmith shop on the property in the 1800's near a pond, now that area is a gold mine! or iron mine I should say Old foundation stones all around. I will metal detect today if it's not too hot, even if it is hot I may just do it anyways.

Thank you. There is an old well here as well but it goes down very deep, I can't get down there, although I want to!

Oh, aye, that's an interesting find to be sure. I assume there are no - er - foot parts inside? Now that would be a nasty find under a tree! I mean, you did also find poison bottles...

Congrats to you on it and your other finds as well. You're off to a very interesting run of things and cheers to it!

Sounds like a trash pit, that I would be digging out. Time to dig a big hole.
