From the looks of all of your finds I would think the site is from some sort of early seemstress type establishment where they made and fixed military and other type clothing. ( just a stab in the dark). 8)

Just a wild guess but were they burning plague or smallpox infected clothing there maybe? Interesting there are so many in one place.

No not infected clothing hint recycled clothing

129 middle is a waist coat buckle - many say they are suspender buckles but waistcoats were very popular in the day. 129 looks like the metal borders of a cloth or leather purse. Your dig reminds me of the American Diggers magazines dig last year at an old button factory. There they were digging in the recycled clothing dumps. Never saw date marks on tent/tarp eyelets before.

Any chance of some more bottle pics?

You're onto a dream site there Cleasby. When you've picked off all the surface finds it really would be worth investing in a metal detector as there's bound to be as much or more buried out of site.

 

[cleasby]

Helow all
