A lovely big smith & tyers bottle for (beer or ale??) 16 Inches high
I was at the dump and I saw this right at the top of the rubbish heep,I climbed up there and tho it would be just a broken half of one or bady cracked as it as been pushed up by a 20 ton shovel. I couldn't believe that when I got it down it was in Perfect condition. It's a great bottle.

I'm guessing its about 150ish years old and it was made in the England. I've try to find some Information about it and couldn't find out much so if you can help with anything on this bottle that would be great :)
SMITH & TYERS are listed as a Capillaire or refined sugar manufacturer.
Cool jug, amazing it wasn't damaged!
Here's a Jug like the one I'm putting up!!!
