Old bottle found - Sable House Garden - "A Randlord's Treasure" - Not really, but to me it is!!!!

This is the oldest bottle that has been found on the property (that I know of)

Immanuel sent me a WhatsApp yesterday afternoon.  He attached 2 pic's and brought the bottle to me this morning.



They were digging in the garden (the rockery) when this little beauty was unearthed
