The first day of December saw yet another solo trip to the Gasworks. I don't really expect to find much on here, but when something nice comes out it is always a bonus. Today was one of those days, and not only did I pull out what was only my second codd from this tip in over thirty years, but also a Virol jar and an ink, which on cleaning turned out to be a nice green example.
This spot seems to be slightly older than those I have been digging on in recent weeks, and there were a few more bits of broken codd coming out which bodes well for future digs.

A nice pit developing:
Plenty of fresh ash, but also plenty of modern junk:
Very little take home today:
