Thank you so much for all the lovely comments of support and commiseration. We are still devastated by the loss of all those beautiful trees. The land is being given over to animal feed crops. There is some light as we have been told by the owner that the profits from these fields will be donated to a local charity. There is one last dump film this Sunday but we are working on a very special Dump Doll extravaganza including crafting and a closer look at all the dolls and parts we have found at the dump. That film will hopefully be out next Thursday (I say hopefully because this is possibly the most involved craft we have ever done) Thank you again for your wonderful comments they mean so much xxxxxxxxx

What a terrible loss. The poor trees and treasures. Our hearts go out to you all. ❤️

Brought tears to this old man,they are destroying my beautiful Britain.

First I want you to know I'm sending you both some comforting hugs. As our Kate stood there looking at that broken tree, with her heart breaking, I too cried. Last week they removed a very healthy, lovely maple tree from next door to me, It was 70 to 100 years old and we have seen many generations of birds nesting in that tree. When I saw it, it stunned me so much, it took my breath away. I cried for days for that tree and a wee bird that sat in a neighboring tree crying. I've never heard a bird wailing before, but I can assure you that is what it was doing. A couple days later the city marked a maple on my property, to be cut or removed, (something to do with city water lines, though I'm thinking it has to do with the five gee whiz poles being erected), all in the name of progress? Please send up prayers with me, that I can trim it down enough that they won't remove it. I am so sad, I'm not gonna lie, though your wonderful rescues, along with your bucket listers were encouraging and lightened my Heart a bit. Bless Your Beautiful Hearts, Fleur and Kate, From a kindred soul sister.

OMG! Heartbreaking! I am so sorry... history gone, trees gone, wildlife gone. There really are no words to describe this...

You are all so lovely, just know all will be well. My sister died today and you from so far away are helping me through this horrible time. I am grateful and thank you.☮️🇨🇦 Footnote: normally my family would be together but Covid. It’s all so weird. So watching you is such a comfort.

How utterly heartbreaking to watch. I'm on the other side of the world but it feels like my hearts been ripped out, I can't even imagine how you must feel xXx

I always find it very sad when trees are destroyed. And this orchard held so much history! Such a shame!

Oh gosh, I hope an ecological survey was done before they destroyed it!! All the wildlife! 😦😯😟😔 It breaks my heart, that looked like a wildlife haven 😢

Absolutely heart-breaking to see that much needed and beautiful habitat destroyed. It was such an idyllic spot for you to go and find your treasures xx

So sad... I keep thinking of all the wildlife that dwelled in those trees :( very sad...

So very sorry that you have lost your beloved Bottle Dump! I am hoping that the animals have found safe places. Lots of love and prayers to you

I'm crying for the trees too.

This is very sad. But u were blessed w/ many things wonderful. It was funny watching Kate scrape bottle dig dirt onto herself. In gonna miss this dump

I too think the orchard dump was waiting for you to come find as many treasures as you could find. I know Kate will remember that spot fondly for the rest of her life. 💜 Thank you for sharing so many great treasure finds there with us.

They're expanding the roads where I live and in the process, they are pulling up hundreds of old oak trees. I cry when I see that too. 😥

😒😢 oh no...not the bottle dump!!! I'm so sorry 😔, my heart and stomach literally dropped when I heard your voice over. All those apple trees (sustaining food for birds, bugs, bees and possibly mammals) and various other shrubs and plants that nurtured and sheltered Mother Nature's wild children.🤦🏼‍♀️(sigh) I'm just heartsick 💔. So few wild and safe places for nature's creatures anymore. Thank you for giving your best to try and save as much history treasures as you can 🙌🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻!!! I can hear the deep sadness and shock in both your voices😌🤗(giant virtual cuddle hug). Can't wait to see the next installment... hope you get to see your "wee" mudlarking birdie one last time 🤞🏻. Love and hugs🙂🤗🤭😘

I'm sorry for your loss of this dear 'friend'. It was so close (literally) to you and gave you so many nice things. You were so good to go and save what you could.

Heartfelt condolences on the loss of your beloved bottle dump. Add to that the loss of the beautiful trees.... :( !

I so much enjoy reading the comments after watching the videos .So many lovely people visiting ! It’s a real pleasure to know that there’s such enjoyment in seeing the discoveries that would otherwise be lost forever. 😊 Wonderful . ❤️

So sad. Wish I were there. I could harvest some of those trees and turn them into bonsai trees. You'd be amazed how even big, fat trees can be made into large bonsai. I have two ponderosa pines that are over 130 years old that were saved from a forest fire by harvesting them and creating bonsai from them. They are beautiful and very happy. 💚

What a bittersweet ending to your faithful dump. She seems to have been giving you some of her best treasures. Tears and cheers! Keep hunting!

I am so sorry about the orchard dump. It is so sad. Kate your ring is beautiful. Good job.

Nooooooo don’t those idiots know we NEED TO PLANT MORE TREES AND NOT CUT THEM DOWN? I’m crying with you. If they are turning the dump into fields you might be able to walk the field after ploughing and find more things. So glad you rescued as much things as you could. Love your wax seal, lucky you found it. God bless and stay safe and well 🙏🙏🙏🥰🥰🥰👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️🌻🌻🌻🌻

I also feel for you. As a small child I used to visit an overgrown walled garden full of overgrown shrubs, butterflies, wild bees, beetles and flowers. It was torn up and the land covered with tarmac. As an adult, I still remember the sadness of its passing.

So so sorry you're loosing your historical dump site. Thank you for preserving history with your finds and sharing it with all of us. Laurie Riley USA

Omg why such a beautiful place with all the treasures and wild life shame on those who have destroyed it am so very sorry am so sad hugs 😢 xxxxx

I never do equate such destruction with progress.... A one of a kind *magical orchard* !! Kindly🍏Dudley

Awww, Kate and Fleur I am so sorry. The destruction broke my heart too...and I only watch the finds! It is very much the loss of a dear friend. Your tears are well understood. Your video was a lovely tribute.

How heartbreaking 💔 I too know the relationship you can build with your favorite spots to lark. Sending you lots of love and support. Such gorgeous finds! That German marble is incredible! So special to rescue so many doll pieces.

I am so sad to see the fruit trees killed. Thank you for saving all treasures that you could. I have really enjoyed going on adventures with you all. Jodie

So sad, I cried too, poor trees, it really was a special place

A person at their desk in a cosy office signs off this land in a second not ever knowing the consequences to the nature and avalon they have destroyed . We are all with you ❤

Hi ladies, I feel your sadness, that dump had become a real haven for wildlife and I felt so sick seeing such destruction. At least you managed to rescue some of the dump babies that live there. I think that Kate's 'big marble' is a Jack or 'Cochonnet' (French 'piglet') from a game of bowls or 'boules.' It was a game that became very popular during the 19th century. Big hugs, Louie Xx

Heartbreaking! When will they realize we are a small island when all these wild places are gone, you'll be able to walk from one end of Britain to the other without coming out of a housing estate,so much for the green and septred Isle. Shameful.

I’m so sad😞 I love watching you walk through the apple trees

My heart hurts for the loss of such a source rich with history.😢. What a great loss of history resources and an amazing orchard. It’s great that you were able to save what you did. Love your videos

Waaaahhhhh! I’m so sorry, for you, the trees and the wildlife. You care of and for the dump will have been witnessed by the dump devas hence your beautiful rewards

So sad I was crying watching you save these precious pieces it’s such a shame that the developers can’t think of a different way to build around these trees

It is sad that this mystical, gnarled, apple cider smelling, friend has been decimated. My sincerest sorrow for you and the nature there. No more words. Love you ladies, dearly.

I'm crying with you all....😥😥😥😥

The seal literally looks like a doll head to me, two eyes and a smile with a tongue out and a big head of hair.. Or am I the only one??

I'm so so sorry for the loss of the beautiful old bottle dump. I hope you can find as much as you can. I also cried like a baby. Hate to see the loss of things that we love. Good luck hunting my lovely ladies. Love to all.

So sad to see those trees cut down just like that and all the treasures go to waste!😥 Luckily you were able to save some nice things! Give you a virtual hug!😚

Aww, I'm so sorry..breaks my heart. Kate has the sweetest most compassionate heart.

Oh my this is the saddest thing ever!! Lovingly picking each item to save it. I haven't cried this hard in a long time. Thank you for sharing!! Hoping Spring brings us all better days.

u have so many beautiful memories of this wonderful place....Enjoyed the finds...thanku for sharing

How could this happen? Why did this happen? I was I tears along with you. It was such a special place. Your magical dump bird. Wonderful trees. a beautiful place gone for ever. Why why why ? Xx

Ohhhh nooo I’m so sad for you all and the trees the birds all the treasures and history, I grieve along with you , and shedded a tear or two watching and in empathy, glad you got to save some beautiful treasures . My heart is with you

Oh, that's criminal!! Those beautiful trees. I hate to see such destruction. Brings tears to my eyes too!! What a world we live in ........

I'm sad & glad to see this video. Sad to see the lively trees gone & glad you got so many good finds. The terracotta doll could be stuck onto the terracotta pot & used to hold precious finds. They are my favourite finds. Beautiful music added to my melancholy. Thank you.

So sorry guys. The death of trees are always heart breaking but those apple trees did not look hybrid. Shame to loose them. Hopefully you can save more before it's covered with houses. Blessing

I can feel the devastation and utter heartbreak from you both. "Welcome to the family" to those tiny faces that were to be lost forever is so heartfelt to hear. I'm sorry for the trees and wildlife too. I'm glad you both care so much. ❤

Fleur and Kate sorry for you, glad you had the chance to save some of your treasures, shame that progress has to damage so much nature and it’s happening so much everywhere these days. ❤️ from Ontario Canada

I'm sorry...I've lost so many special places in my lifetime due to "progress"...take heart that you guys loved it and documented its beauty for thousands to see for as long as the internet and humans exist.

I felt your anguish and cried with. Glad you are going there every day for as long as possible.

Oh no! I feel your pain so much. I was crying quite a lot during your video, so sad. I’m glad that you have managed to find such beautiful treasures. That place was so magical. ❤️🇦🇺xxx

I'm sorry for the loss of the source of so much joy for you both and all your followers. Sending love and thanks for sharing.

I would be getting friendly with the workers of the diggers that’s for sure . Use them to your advantage . Gutted for you though all the same x

That’s devastating! You must have been heartbroken! I loved this location and always thought you were so lucky to have it. (Nothing like it in North Carolina.)

Oh my goodness I couldn’t help but shed a tear with you both. So sad for the wildlife and those beautiful trees😔, demand for expansion is an unstoppable machine😞. So glad you got to rescue so many wonderful finds. I can hear the cogs of creativity whirling and look forward to the craft videos, hope you can go on more rescue visits to the dump again before it’s gone x

Hello ladies, I'm so sorry about your dump. So much lost. I think you can tell the with Crystal and glass by the sound they make when you tap on them. The big clay marble is a for a game. Tom Burleigh found one once. I truly enjoy all your videos. Take care and stay safe 🙏

That just makes me so mad. They just cant leave anything alone. Ide camp out there and search for stuff with my torch . We aren't going to have any countryside left .

Made me cry to see the trees go down....glad you saved as much as you could!

Crystal when held in one hand and pinged with the other has a beautiful ring to it

SO SORRY FOR YALL. HOPE YOU FIND LOTS OF OLD ITEMS OTHER PLACES I WATCH YOU EVERY SHOW. YALL HAVE SO MUCH FUN. HAPPY FOR YOU. .

At 21:03 did anyone else think it was a Native American wearing a loin clothe? OMG! then when Fleur said, "A lady wearing an apron..." I laughed out loud at myself!

Wow- can't wait to watch this. I had a similar experience this week. The local play park was being redone. Revealing an old bottle dump underneath. The builders kindly let me and the kids come in and pick up the bottles we could see. Now, it's all AstroTurfed over. These were the first bottles me and the kids had found so it was super special. I even found some with embossing from the town we're in & so glad we saved them. No clay pipes yet but I'm hopeful we'll find one someday.

I’m so very sorry. I cried too. The bottle dump gave you so much joy that you passed on to us. I’m saddened for the tress, wildlife and I’m sure the stretch of woods was sad too. Thank you dump for all the excitement and joy you gave Fleur & Kate & Oscar. Your finds we’re bittersweet. ☹️

Very sad hearing the chainsaws in the background. Great finds. ♥️♥️♥️

Congratulations on finding your terracotta doll

Thank goodness you two were able to rescue some wonderful things. Hopefully your mudlarking Robin will come through and guide you all to another great area.

Beautiful doll heads.

It feels like the dump loved you back.

What a devastating loss! I felt your pain. I hate to see nature torn up so irreverently. Hugs, Julie 🥰

Sorry for the loss of your dump of dreams, I also had tears in my eyes but I'm sure you will keep visiting as often as you can and I know you will find more amazing treasures.

A few tears here too ladies. I'm truly sorry that your dump will no longer be. I love your finds. The bottles are amazing. The tiny green one is so sweet and the Ink with the ink still inside; So cool! Kate, I love your idea to use the toothbrush as a squirrel tale. Perfect! I'm sending hugs your way. Take care and cheers from North Carolina.

Just heartbreaking hope their comes a chance it will stay a empty field,so mudlarking could continue Wouldn't be the same but a future field of dreams?

So sorry for the loss of an old friend.

Sad to see the trees just pulled out of the ground with the birds homes . But the field surely gave you a abundance of lovely treasures . I wish humans would just let nature do its thing and be happy.

RIP, best dump ever! ❤️🇨🇦❤️

Oh Kate and Fleur! I had tears in my eyes at one stage... I do feel, though, that you were rewarded by the dump for the simple fact that you appreciated it so much! Such treasures! I'm so glad you knew it was there, and not that someone casually said to you (10 months from now) "You know there used to be a bottle dump right where those new houses were built?"

So heart breaking to hear of your dump being demolished. All those beautiful apple trees gone to waste. Hope they aren't going to build a bunch of houses there. Loved your finds from today's videos. Well done ladies. Thanks for sharing your story with us and taking us along for your hunt.

I am so sorry for the loss of your treasure dump. I am glad you found as many treasures as you did! Can’t wait until next week!

Broken hearted for certain. Joyful with the things brought to the surface and saved.

Awwwww. So sorry to read of the demise of your beloved bottle dump. When one has so much love for tiny things, wildlife- and nature/earth in general, one can't help but be saddened. But wow- what amazing finds!!! And more next week too? Just wonderful. WONDERful. Hope your week is a good one. Cheers from Maine!

I was crying it is so sad I hope they not building on the land I have really enjoyed your videos and hope you find more Victorian bottle dumps

So sad to think of this bottle dump being underground again. Enjoyed watching.

No more mudlarking bird 😥 My heart is broken for you both. There will be new adventures and blessed finds. Chin up

Heartbreaking!! I cried too. Thank you for rescuing what you could. Fabulous treasures. ❤ Hope it's not going to get covered in concrete...😭😭💔.

I hope you can find another area that can bring you happiness once again.

Oh sooo sad, the amazing bottle dump, the beautiful trees, the Robins and all other wildlife now all gone 😢😢😢😢 my heart breaks for you guys. You have saved some wonderful items though ❤❤❤ them all. Thank you for sharing 😊

After watching "We Went Back To Our Favourite Bottle Dump + We Found STUNNING Finds!!!" yesterday, I went back in time and watched this video. It reminded me of the town of Valsetz, Oregon that was bulldozed away. It was an unincorporated logging town of less than 1000 people. In 1984 the town was removed and, even worse, in 1988 the Valsetz lake was undammed. My grandfather, father, and myself spent many hours canoeing and fishing while watching the beavers, occasional bald eagle, and many other varieties of wildlife in their natural setting. Like your spot, it was close by and many trips were made. The town began in 1919 so any finds wouldn't be quite as old as yours. We went up after they drained the lake and found fishing gear everywhere, even boat motors, and large 50 gallon drums that they thoughtlessly tossed in the lake. It was sad indeed and now so overgrown with trees you wouldn't even know it existed. At the beginning of your video, I wanted to jump into the screen and give you both a hug. I hope you both will be able to keep going there for a long time. Merry Christmas!

So sad, I hate changes, and always have, They recently put in a new freeway, not far from where I live, with two historical small towns. They didn't take out the towns, but put a by pass around them, and that was a main road we traveled through since I was a baby, I am now 74 years old. Love all the items you found, and hope your able to save a few more things.

I accidentally found your video and began to watch, the half a acorn pipe what a great find it would look so good in a small dark wooded shadow box with black back ground, u have a new subscriber I luv the all finds.🇨🇦👍😎

I cried with you and for you! I would be at that dump everyday until they kicked me out!

Why? Why is this happening? I feel your heart break. I cried too.

My goodness....such neat finds...love the bottles...such sad news about the dump....

Humans and their progress. Forget about nature. Very sad.

Really sad about the trees and the dump. 😥
