Why is there so much broken glass in my garden? Am I developing the first glass garden? Some of it is bottle glass, I even found one whole small bottle. Most of it though is clear glass, thinish, plate. I think it is probably from a long-gone greenhouse.
When I bought the garden (I bought the garden, the house just happened to come with it), the garden was largely a big lawn with a couple of trees. No sign of a greenhouse that might have been there. When digging the pond the glass started to emerge and suddenly I realised that there was quite a lot of it. Plus a fair amount of old bolts and bits of wire.
So should I call in Time Team? Get Tony Robinson to find the source of the glass and amaze my neighbours with the glass-age village that used to be present on my back lawn?
Maybe not - I shall just continue picking it up and humming Nick Lowe songs whilst I do so.
