Scratching the surface of a planned vegetable plot in a back garden has been a journey of discovery for one family.
Underneath a mound of earth and nestled away for decades on a property in Pontypool, Torfaen, were more than 1,000 vintage bottles.
Some beer bottles and medicinal glass jars have been brought to the surface – but their existence in just one spot is "puzzling", said mum-of-two Zoe Brown.
"We started digging and found there's loads of rubbish – we went a metre down and found a whole bottle and thought this is really cool – maybe there's more stuff.
"It got absolutely out of hand."
