Where: Scotland · Europe · approx. 55.93, -4.69 (vicinity only)

Why this spot: 1856 Ordnance Survey town plan era

What turns up: Shipbuilding-town refuse: stoneware ginger-beer bottles, aerated-water and soda bottles from local and Glasgow bottlers, black-glass whisky, ale and porter bottles, Codd and Hamilton sodas and clay pipes around the old harbour and yards; industrial glass along the tidal shore.

Access: Gray area.

Under Scots bona vacantia and Treasure Trove ALL finds of any age can be Crown property and MUST be reported to the Treasure Trove Unit at the Crown Office, a stricter rule than England's. The Clyde foreshore here is tidal Crown Estate Scotland, so permission is required before searching.
