A fizzy pop glass bottle, with it's original glass ball still intact.

Children would use the glass balls as marbles from fizzy pop bottles called Codd bottles. The Codd bottle was named after its inventor Hiram Codd who designed it in the shape of a fish. The fizz was kept in the pop by a glass marble in the top of the bottle. When the pop was finished the children smashed the Codd Bottle to get the marble out. The marble from the Codd bottle was called an Ali Bop - an allie from a pop bottle.

This bottle was found buried in the garden.
