It is a treasure trove of information from a time when rubbish disposal was a household responsibility.
These artefacts from a rubbish dump behind the Samson House Stables are fragments of a larger story.
An accident resulting in a smashed cherished teapot; the marks from a butcher’s cleaver on the bones of a Sunday roast; broken bottles that held vital medicine or the remnants of a favourite tipple – they connect us to everyday life at Samson House.
