Greenock harbour and Clyde shore

BOTTLE DIGGING GRAY AREA CONFIRMED

Where: Scotland · Europe · approx. 55.95, -4.76 (vicinity only)

Why this spot: 1857 Ordnance Survey town plan era

What turns up: Major shipping and sugar-port dump: stoneware ginger-beer bottles from Glasgow and local makers, aerated-water and soda bottles from Greenock bottlers, black-glass whisky, rum, ale and wine bottles, ships' glass and clay pipes along the harbour walls and foreshore; Codd and Hamilton sodas common.

Access: Gray area.

Scotland's report-everything rule applies: any object of any age can belong to the Crown under bona vacantia and Treasure Trove and MUST be reported to the Treasure Trove Unit at the Crown Office, unlike England. The harbour foreshore is Crown Estate Scotland or port-authority land, so permission is needed to search.
