Wide mouth clear glass bottle. LCS logo, Eastern section. Any ideas of what this bottle contained and where it may have come from? Still in the process of cleaning.

Hi, SooleyMac. :-)
Cool.
This might be screamingly obvious to you, because I see in your profile that you live in London. However, I don't, so it was news to me:
LCS (London Co-operative Society):

I suspect that it's a small dairy product bottle. The wide mouth was probably so that the dairy packagers could use a standard-sized lid on all of their bottles.
Just the shape and wording, it appears to be a milk bottle. A quick search ...LCS (LONDON CO-OP Society) milk bottle..possibly 1940s? More research needed to date it..
Keramikos..you snuck in while I was typing..nice find
Hey ????????
Thank you for that. Interesting. I have not lived in London my whole life so this is a surprise to me. I have another one similar that is full of clay at the moment. ???????????
dav2no1, Oops, sorry. :-(
If it's any consolation, I've had it happen to me. };-)
SooleyMac, You're welcome. :-)
You have one full of clay, huh? Possibly it's a repurposed dairy bottle.
@keramikos It has been dug pit of a clay pit. Shame that it has a chipped lip but pretty. I'll pop a pic up but it's still a bit manky.
SooleyMac, OK, dug out of a clay pit could certainly explain it being full of clay. };-)
Manky is no problem. We have a lot of manky items posted here.
LOL!!!!!!!!
