Rob Scaife sent me information about someone who makes tins in steel or
stainless steel as well as peat cores and flotation tanks. He is based on
the Isle of Wight and it is a small engineering business. I haven't
purchased any yet so can't say what they are like but he was highly
recommended. His name is Bob Bailey and his telephone number is 01983
299374. I don't have an e-mail address I'm afraid.
Do let us all know the other contacts you are sent and if you have success.

>
>> Dear Colleagues,
>>
>> I am pretty sure I've got some allspice in the flot from the primary
>> fill of a 19th cesspit from Payne's wharf (Greenwich/Deptford London).
>> You'll have to trust my provisional identification for now as I don't
>> have facilities to take photographs through my microscope yet. I've
>> compared them with my modern reference allspice and they look the same.
>>
>> I'm writing the assessment and wanted to ask if any of you had found
>> this spice in samples from this area of London.
>>
>> Allspice isn't on the ABCD list and I've found a paper describing some
>> Polish finds in which it refers to some English finds of allspice but
>> doesn't give any further details.
>>
>> If any of you know of any finds, in London or elsewhere, do let me know.
>> I'll note them for whoever does the analysis.
>>
>> Best Wishes,
>>
>> Lisa
