I was doing some metal detecting up in Childwall a while back. when we finished we were talking to a local guy who also does this hobbie, He said that i should search for old Victorian tips and try around there as we could get lucky and find something useful, Although he did say something about a Victorian tip being behind Fazakerly hospital, is this true? and id love you help to find any other locations!
Thanks..
Lee

When i was a kid there was an old tip in Neston between church lane and the old route of the mine railway,it used to be called tank's field it was all overgrown but i can still remember finding old bottles ect, there was a stream that ran through the site and i can well remember finding an old car headlamp in the water !.
The headlamp was about until modern times but i gave it to someone, it was one that used oil or acetylene.
