Full Description

Objects included 19th and 20th century ceramic fragments, late-19th to 20th century bottles and bottle fragments, metal cuttlery (probably 20th century) and a 1950s service issue 'Piccardilly' tobacco tin. The material had been dumped in the harbour and was located approximately 60m off Victory Jetty. Due to the different dates of the objects the material is likely to have been deposited at different times rather than as a group.
