Three cylindrical glass bottles. The two larger bottles are full size wine bottles. One is of the 'Burgundy' type and is most likely Continental. The half-size wine bottle, originally thought to be a champagne bottle, also has a Continental style neck. The Continental style neck appears around the middle of the 19th century (Dumbrell 1983). All are of nineteenth or twentieth century type.
Notes:
These bottles were found with two green glass gin bottles (MAS-D100101), seven clay pipes (MAS-D100085) and the lid of a ceramic serving dish (MAS-D100087).
