Both of these early 20th century bottles were found at Site 44PY181. The dairy bottle (left) is from Clover Hill Farm in Danville. The bottle on the right would have contained one the soft drinks manufactured by the Virginia Fruit Juice Co. of Norfolk. Numerous other identifiable bottles from the sites Front Street tell us about the types of consumer goods available to mill families and where they were manufactured.
