I took Moonbase Junior in the field next door the other day. Currently fallow, It's a big field with lots to see like a reed bed and old sheds.
The wildlife moment of the hike was an aerial mobbing of a Red Kite by five angry local Buzzards. It was amazing and Junior and me wuz thrilled.
A keen budding archeologist, Junior had a real good look around the hedge edges and the waste tracts for interesting bits.
This is what he found just lying around.
Golfballs, a Shippams potted beef glass jar, a Country Way milk bottle (no idea if the jar or bottle are old), fragments of pot and brick, a shell casing, a bulb bottom ...
.... and this curly bit of ornate glazed pottery, which he said was the best catch.
Amazingly Google Lens ID'd it and it turns out to be the foot of this German lustre ware pot basket! Again, no idea of age. You?
Still, Junior was chuffed with his field trip!
Sounds like a great day out. Google Lens did a great job there - it is very useful for things like this.
