A First time visit to an Old Town Dumpsite. Mudlarking, and exploring.

- A new old site, with lots for me to find. I was told about this site by a bottle digger, who asked that I didn't show much of the surrounding scenery. That's a limitation I accepted, and it made making a video there a little challenging.
I hope you enjoy this video, despite its limitations. If you do, then please give it a like, a subscribe, a comment, a share... whatever you feel comfortable with. Suggestions, comments and criticisms are all welcome.

Somebody kindly bought something off my Amazon wishlist, and I missed it out of the round up for this video, so that I can put it in the next one being used. Mini craft video in the next round up... hopefully. If it goes well enough.
You said to shout out if we saw something interesting! The person behind the camera! I enjoy the stories, tales and tidbits you relate! Always interesting and fun to hear! Thank you for another fine tour!!!
I was just thinking this morning that I hadn’t seen you for ages! ❤️
I've been struggling with mustering the particular energy that editing takes. It's much easier when I really like the footage I'm working with, and alas, this one didn't make it easy. The next one though... some lovely light and scenery in that one. 🙂
@@tomburleigh9261 I’m looking forward to it already! Thanks for taking the time to edit this one, loved all the pipes!
Happy for any video from you!
Thanks Jennifer. This one isn't one I'm particularly happy about, but I'm already making the next one which I like much more, and think will be more enjoyable. 🙂
I never tire of the view from your window…. Incredibly special!
The site was fabulous! Lovely finds. Loved the snail shell… Absolutely beautiful. x
Thanks Kari. I never tire of the view either... it's wonderful to be able to take a small break from editing, and see lambs bouncing and bounding around in the field, birds in the trees...occasionally rabbits eating the chives in our garden. Two weeks ago, we had a family of wag tails fledging in our yard, 4 fluffy young calling for food and hopping about on the chairs. 🙂
Thanks for the wonderful escape of caring for my (best friend) mother as she suffers in the final stages of Dementia. Wonderful video, did miss the sound of running water but great fun, thanks again. Enjoy what you do, not all of us can. Take care tom and I look forward to next video of any kind from you!
I'm sorry you're going through that. Just before I started making videos, I was a carer for my mother too... it makes me very glad that my videos can be a brief escape for people in that situation. The next video has lots of running water, and lovely light playing in it, I shall try hard to get it out in a timely manner. 🙂
@@tomburleigh9261 Tanks Tom!!!
Sorry for your "hard work of love"taking care of your mom.... I totally understand as I took care of my wonderful husband last summer; he died in October.... I've never been the same... he loved watching and listening to TOM as much as he could!, his
peaceful and spooning voice were also a huge comfort for him! Praying send peace to you both from USA, South Carolina!
@@virginiamartin9913 Thank you so much!
So sorry, dementia is a heartbreaking condition, I cared for my mum for fourteen years, not dementia but a few medical conditions. I lost her in 2015 and miss her everyday, my partner was helping me care for my dear old stepdad until last year when my partner passed away suddenly then this year my stepdad passed away. I find the mudlarking youtubers a great comfort, it's like having a distant extended family with interesting hobbies.
I love the window view of the sheep, green grass, houses in background. Not to mention the massive hill. Beautiful !
Thank you Tom. Variety is the spice of life so the noise didn’t bother me 😌. So fun to walk with your eyes!!
That was a real treat Tom ! Thank you ! Love the blue bottles ...all of them . And the medal is marvellous !
Very cool afternoon here in Sydney Australia. Rugged up on my bed with puppy wrapped up next to me and I see Mr Burleigh has uploaded video, Happy days…….hope you’re well Mr Burleigh. Thank you for treasure hunt 😊
I'm reasonably well thanks, and I hope you and your puppy are having a lovely day. 🙂
Yay a Tom Burleigh
Thanks Mary. Not my best, but now it's up, I can move on to the next one, which has scenery, and wonderful light playing in the water. 🙂
Wonderful to hear your commentary again Tom and your walk through the woods. And a very interesting dump it is too! Look forward to your next video, hopefully soon. Sue and Ian, Australia
Thanks Sue and Ian... I'm hopeful that I'll be able to get the next video out in less than 2 weeks, that's something I used to be able to do. If I don't manage it, it will sadly then be at least 4 weeks (as I'm heading off on holiday in just under 2 weeks, for 2 weeks. I hope you're both keeping well, warm regards, Tom. 🙂
Wonderful to see you Tom. I love that view out your window. So glad that someone told you about that site. It was quite lovely. You scored with all those clay pipes. Thank you for taking us along and sharing all your finds with us. Stay safe!
I enjoy your nature walks as I have nothing like that around where I live. I enjoy the mudlarking adventures too and look forward to hearing the music that accompanies all your videos.
Any explore is a good explore, you get to do what I can not, love them all, thank you 👍👍
Thanks Pamela. It was still a bit frustrating, not being able to film as I normally would. The next video is more to my taste, a river walk in gorgeous sunlight. 🙂
@@tomburleigh9261 can't wait, thank you 👍👍
As always made coffee ☕️ to enjoy with a new Tom Burleigh wander...loved it my favorites were the glass buttons but lots of lovely finds. happy hunting.
Yaaaaay! Tom!
Thanks J J 🙂
I love watching your videos. Good to see you again. I never tire of your view.
Tom? Tom! Is that you? Your voice is back for us to enjoy!!! Hope the garlic scavenging is well this year. Well done on a lark video after such a long time. Blessings my friend.
Very nice lark, enjoyed it very much . History of the pieces was interesting and always love your presentation .
Well done Mr. Burleigh . Thank you .
Love this video Tom, so many awesome pipes 👌😊. Loved that unusual ink bottle, and other bottles. Beautiful ❤ ooohhhh and that cute frozen Charlotte figure 😍 gorgeous.
Thank you
Love from the old lady in Texas God bless you❤ always
Queen of Sheba Gold, paint for gilding. There is something about the call of a crow, spooky, Love where you are, interesting place. I miss forests, not very many here, and all on hills which are difficult to get to, yes we have wooded areas, all pine, my garden has many trees, have planted trees since I was 6, so 50 years, two gardens. Love trees, good drawing subjects
Great to watch one of the most interesting mudlarking videos in my list, thanks Tom for a great lark and great commentary,brilliant
Hello 👋 from New York USA you Found Some Amazing Finds my Favorite Definitely Was all the Clay Pipe Bowls the Beautiful Aqua Bottles and the COD Bottle Thank you for Bringing me Along with you I can't wait to see you Find Next 😀 😊
I greatly enjoy your choice of music that you play as you drive thru the winding village roads. I enjoyed this video, so many interesting objects to spot. 🌻🐕🇺🇸
Thank you Guadalupe. I'm so glad that people enjoy the music piece, it's my most successful composition. 🙂
Absolutely - first rule of bottle digging never reveal your location! Queen Sheba gold is a paint/enamel. Northern Mudlarks found one on a riverside dump, it still had the gold in it.
I do try to hide any major landmark from the camera lens in most places I visit... with a few exceptions; like the hilltop dumpsite where the views are most of the attraction, and the river cut cliff, which very few bottle diggers bother with. 🙂 I have another series of 4 videos I filmed at a site where I revealed too much to the camera; thankfully, that won't matter by the time I get them edited and out, because the site has largely been bulldozed and is going to be built on. I must catch up with the Northern Mudlarks videos sometime, they film in lovely places and they're lovely people; hope I can meet up with them again sometime. 🙂
Thank you. So interesting and I enjoy the pastoral view from your studio window. I miss the countryside.
Love the drive. The buildings remind me of Germany. I get so homesick
I think that sick bottle would look cool with a figurine head attached
Ohhh Tom, how I’ve missed your videos and super happy for the a new one ❤️
I have subscribed because your videos are wonderful and your voice calms my soul. Your tone and cadence makes everything you say sound like poetry. I suffer badly with anxiety and an accidental land on one of your videos earlier gave me a much needed and long wished for moment of calm. Thank you xx
My new favorite term is "fidget toy"! Thanks for saying it! Enjoy your videos as a new subscriber. Cheers from PA usa.
Thanks Larisa, and welcome to the channel. I hope you get a lot of enjoyment from my past and future videos. 🙂
@@tomburleigh9261 I have already watched many of your videos. I enjoy the river walks and the soothing sound of moving water, but I do appreciate a great lark with interesting finds! I think my favorites are the bottle stoppers! Beautiful! xo
Hello Tom, I have been missing your videos. And was happy to see this one pop up in notifications. That dump site did have some awesome finds. I hope you got up all your piles that you sat aside here and there.
Hi Tammie, and thanks. I've been missing putting videos out, glad to have gotten this one out, and the next one a third of the way edited. I did manage to collect all the piles of things I wanted, thankfully there weren't any other people on the site that day to worry about, and that site is fairly linear along the slope of the hill, so I didn't have any problems with missing piles 🙂
Lovely to see one of your treasure walks again
Thanks Karen 🙂
Hi Tom. The Queen of Sheba bottle is a paint for artists. The Northern Mudlarks have found a few.
You have such a lovely cadence to your voice. You would be perfect for reciting audio books.
Always a delight.
Thanks redfrog42 🙂
I have enjoyed this video very much, most of all your commentary throughout and the wrap up at the end. On the walks I go on occasionally, I find myself humming your theme song, and talking myself out of carrying home pretty pebbles and pieces of glass.
Thanks Kathy. And it's nice to know that the little piece of guitar music I wrote specifically for a theme tune, meant only for the 1st few videos... has spread quite far and wide now 🙂. Sorry if you talk yourself out of taking anything that you wish later you'd taken, it's the curse of restraint.
Another great video the finds you found are great so much history.
Sooooo glad you posted this today. Have missed your videos.
Thanks Julie, I've missed putting them out. 🙂
Nice video with a hint of Burleigh family history and a different area 👍
wonderful drive in town..... could be south Texas small towns..... I miss Texas and love English houses.....so, I love this video......such good work
Thanks Joe. I had to google images of small towns in South Texas, and... yeah, I can see quite a few similarities. That's a surprise to me, a small market town in the Pennines, rainy and very English, having similar architecture to semi arid and sub-tropical places. 🙂
@@tomburleigh9261 i love videos of England and mudlarking.
Your my favorite larker tom burleigh, so happy to find a video out fr you! I appreciate the effort you put forth, you make quality content, rather than quantity, thanks and be well😊
Thank you, I'm happy to have finally gotten this video out. Quantity would be a good achievement if I could keep the quality... I can sometimes manage one every fortnight. Hopefully that'll be the interval between this and the next. 🙂
Thanks for the new video! enjoyed it 👍🌹
Thanks Alma, I'm glad you liked it. 🙂
Lovely clip.so many pipes. 🙂🙂
Lovely day to you Tom.
Lovely vid, you had some fab bits of history, the attendance medal was the best find.
Thanks Lisa... I agree, the medal is one of my favourite finds. 🙂
Great having you back Tom.
Thanks Misty By nature, I've missed posting videos. Hopefully the next one will not be too long. 🙂
Made me laugh bottle reasoning aquation😃😂😁
I love dump videos
lovely stuff Tom, thanks for bringing s along.
Another lovely day! :)
Another great video.I almost cannot wait for the roundup just to see whats going on right outside your window.what a beautiful lazy scene with the sheep just slowly grazing along.An absolute cure for the crazy rush of the city. Honestly i would have to take someone with me to haul what i liked on this walk or to hold me back from bringing it all home.Thanks again for including us on these walks and please take care and be safe! 🙂
Thanks Tom. 🙂 Your comment makes me want to set up the camera on the wall outside, let it record an hour, and then upload it to the other channel. It's only taken me 3 years, and the best part of 2 sheds full to learn a bit of restraint... now I just have to remind myself how little space I have left.
@@tomburleigh9261 ah yes restraint is tough! I thought about wondering if its a little greedy but i dont think thats it,i love to rescue things that are old, ive become the family keeper for just this reason. Someone dies and i take whatever noone wants. Now i find that not only am i out of room but i also have three lifetimes worth of restoration projects. Regardless i am still glad the things havent ended up in the dumps. Have a great day!
@@tombrooks3812 I reason much like you. I hope you have a great day too. 🙂
What a fantastic place to explore. My 7 year old grandson would love a place like that to explore, as would I. We just don’t have anything like that near where I live aside from one dump that is probably only from the 1950s or so. Not much there but he still loves to go.
We have missed your calming voice and lovely scenery. Loved seeing you again. Greetings from North Carolina U.S.A .
Thanks Peggy, I've missed putting videos out. I'm glad you enjoyed it. 🙂
I see in the comments below that this community once again helps someone through some tough times. As I commented below, both my parents had life threatening issues shortly after covid came out, making it hard to visit them in hospital. It is the main reason I began to fill my own channel with the crazy animals calling my property home, hoping to make others smile as much as they helped me smile when I needed one.😊😀🥰
Love these videos 💕. My soul needs this.
Thanks Charlotte. 🙂
Nice finds ! I love your videos 😊😊😊😊
So lovely to experience a Tom adventure once again. Thank you. Lovely finds. I love the view from your window!
Nice to see you back , enjoy watching Tom.
Thanks JJ, it's nice to be back. 🙂
You are one of my favorites . Love your style its so relaxing to listen to your voice.
Really great
Best way to get a codd clean is to get it tumbled in a bottle tumbler
I am new to your channel and love everything. I most of all just love your voice!
Enjoyed as always 🌈
Thanks you, I'm glad you liked it. 🙂
I understand and respect other bottle pickers too. Brilliant.. Thank you ❤️🇨🇦
Thanks Fiorenza 🙂
I've never heard the term "glass sickness" before.
Interesting Video Tom...🙂👍🏻👍🏻
Melodious and mellifluous as usual. So fun to watch. Your style of showing scenic areas close by and the mudlark finds is my favorite.
Thanks Victor, for your very kind words. 🙂
The view from your window is magical and beautiful! Wonderful finds today!
queen sheba gold ink !🤗
Northern Mudlarks found one, with some of the ink still in the bottle... awesome find.🙂
Great to see you back Tom. What a fabulous site you visited. The medal was a very interesting find.
How wonderful it must be to look out your window and see the lovely, green farm land down below. It is quite an amazing view. 🌻🐕🇺🇸
It is quite lovely, there's always something happening to see... birds, and bunnies, and lambs and sheep, and ever changing weather. 🙂
Great to watch, regardless of the limited range of view.
I had to laugh at the optimism, right before deciding the soil at that end of the site was causing the glass sickness! Thanks for a great start to the day!
Favourite piece is pot ,I wonder how old it is ,it looks old .
Have you ever used brick acid ,I haven't ,not sure if it works or how to use it ,
Loved the story and would love to hear more like that ,
Another great and informative video . Thank you ❤️👍
Thanks Kim, I'm glad you thought so. 🙂
Great video Tom . 👍👍👍
Thanks Jane. 🙂
Complete Codd bottle would be extremely exciting for many a mudlarker/bottle digger. I would be extremely excited to spy a complete example (even if the glass was 'sick') Fabulous and most interesting facets of social history. Many thanks for sharing.
i would love to finda a place like this
Thanks for the lovely video. It alwaysd reminds me of the bluffs around my home town of LaCrosse, WI.
Thanks Mary, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Wisconsin sounds like a place I'd like to visit then. 🙂
We have been in difficult times here in the USA. So when I saw your new post I decided to open a pint of Planet Oat chocolate ice cream and enjoy it while I watched and be happy for the duration of the video. Thank you... these videos are better than therapy.
Sad to see what's been happening there, I hope things improve. And, I'm glad my videos can give you a little bit of an escape.
Great to see a new video, I've missed them. I love the view from your window. Thank you I really enjoyed it.
Thanks Donna, I'm glad you liked it. 🙂
So nice to see you, some great finds❤️🇨🇦
Thanks Catherine 🙂
Lovely bottles and beautiful pipes, Tom! This was a nice lark, I didn't find the background noise too distracting. Bottle dumps are hit-and-miss as far as which spot is best to dig...just find a spot and try it!💖
Thanks Cynthia. I don't think I'll be able to dig a hole separately, my back wouldn't like it. So, will probably have to dig sideways from an existing hole if I want to try it (which I kind of do, on a cool dry day). 🙂
Thank you for another interesting video, it is great that you found all those pipe bowls. Even though you were restricted in showing a lot of the scenery I loved seeing all the beautiful green trees. I too love looking through your window when you do your round up. Hope you are keeping well, stay safe 👋🇦🇺🪃 xxx
Thanks Siona, I'm glad it was enjoyable. I'm probably the worst person to judge the value of my videos, I dislike every one of them by the time I'm halfway through editing. I'm certainly lucky to have the view I do outside my window. 🙂
your narration style is fascinating & delightful! Attenborough-esque
Thank you, I'm glad you think so. 🙂
Attenborough-esque
I think one of my favourite things is watching bottle digging or bottle hunting.
That dump site looked very interesting your camera caught a lot of items I would have liked to known what they were about.
You found some nice ones without having to dig. Please go back again and show some items that you might not keep but could be interesting to hear about.
Enjoyed your video. You found some fun things. I also love marbles. I have a nice little bag of them. We went to a marble museum one year and watched them make a marble. So cool
Glad to see you again. Thanks for taking us along
That does sound cool, I'd love to see the process up close. I've seen glass blowing, and even got to give it a bit of a try, but not marbles. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. 🙂
Tom, I know another mudlarker found the queen sheba bottle...I think Northern Mudlarks? I believe it had gold ink in it...but there seem to be other products with that name - such as perfume.
Nice to see something from you again! It's always a pleasure to see what little treasures you discover.
Unfortunately, the notification function doesn't seem to work for me, I only found this video because I looked at your channel, I didn't get a notification for the previous one either, strange.
By the way, you helped me a lot with your forays into staying in a good mood when I was practically bedridden for weeks recently; someone recommended your channel to me back then and I really enjoy your videos! And I'm amazed what beautiful old bottles you have in the UK.
I wish you the best of luck and joy on your tours, stay safe!
Well, what a pleasant surprise to see a new video from you. I check often. Caroline Johnson would love to find so many pipes! Glass sickness is so disappointing but you did manage to get a few lovely samples. The green ink bottle was my favourite. Your roundups are always pleasant. The view and changing weather is welcome. I look forward to seeing more from you soon. Bye from Ontario.
Thanks Dorothy... it's nice to know that people check up and see if I've posted. Will be working hard this week to get the next one constructed, hopefully to go up before I go away to Scotland in a few weeks for a bit of a holiday. I took Caroline and Phil to this site a few weeks after I shot this, and Caroline did find a few pipe bowls. 🙂
Those pipebowls, i just see led lights in them, it would make a great bedside lamp, or even a shandelere
Thanks for the idea, I'll give it a go on a small scale, and see if it's feasible, would have to drill out the smoke hole a bit to pass a wire through. 🙂
@@tomburleigh9261 and you could make a copper tree, to attach them as fruits or flowers, perhaps...
What a fabulous area, I'd be in my element with all those small bottles. My favourites are glass bottle stoppers. That looks to me like a preserving jar clip. A bit different shape from what I know.
Ah, thank you. That's a good suggestion, and I think you might be right. It's certainly a fun little dumpsite to visit. 🙂
Hi Tom, nice to see a post of yours up. It’s a very steep place, The ink pot was very nice, I know the feeling of being more selective of finds. I too have many hanging about the house and shed in need of clean up. I do like to find an old structure of a building in the middle of the woods. Nice video Tom, great weather too 🙌
Hi Rob & Collette. Let me know if this is a site you'd like to visit, can't promise it would be as good as it was on this 1st visit; a few mudlarkers know of it now. But, perhaps if you wanted to dig there, you'd find some good things. 🙂
@@tomburleigh9261 Morning Tom, I will send you a message the usual way 👌
Thanks tom
Thanks Joseph, I'm glad you enjoyed it. 🙂
Hi Tom, great to see a new video and from what seems like fabulous new location. I haven’t watched all the video yet because it’s 10.40pm here and it’s been a long day at work. I’ll watch the rest in the morning with a cuppa.
I’m back home in 2 weeks so hopefully will have time for a lark.
All the best, take care - James
Thanks James, it's probably a good place for a little sideways digging (fancy giving that a try?)... not all that good as a mudlarking spot unless there's fresh digging holes. In 2 weeks, I'll be heading up to Scotland for two weeks... if you're still here when I'm back, it would be good to meet up. All the best, Tom.
Definitely like to have a dig. I’m only home from the 9th to the 22nd July but I’ll be back in September. Have a good time in Scotland if I don’t see you
I think they use those large ceramic marbles in industrial polishing or cleaning tumblers
Thanks Tom, that's something I hadn't thought of. I'm used to finding prism shaped ceramic metal polishing beads; found some in my next video. Hadn't thought about the possibility of spherical ones. This one is a different material from the prism ones, fairly soft in comparison... but I'll do a bit of research and see if it's a likely probability. 🙂
Wow Tom! What a excellent MUDLARK. Well done on the codd bottle, love it! And wow so many clay pipes!! I’m so not jealous! Haha 🙂⚓️🙂⚓️
Wonderful video Tom. I love this site for the pipes, I use Milliput to attach stems to the bowls and make them whole again and then decorate them, it's good fun. The medal was a lovely find and you did a great job on the Codd bottle. Hope you and Rowena are well 💗😁 x
Thanks Amanda, I haven't been back to that site in a while, are people still digging there?
I'll give that a try sometime, think I'm currently out of milliput, but will get some more... it's useful stuff. 🙂I hope you're well too.
@@tomburleigh9261 👍😁💗x
I didn’t notice any weird background sounds - thank you for an interesting summer lark! I would’ve taken the sick blue bottle. Lol.
I did take it on my next visit there, but I haven't been able to remove most of the sickness no matter what I've tried. The air conditioning system of the nearby factory bugged me all over that site, I'm glad the camera mic didn't pick it up too much. 🙂
