what's the oldest

1920's steamer trunk.

 

A WW1 theodolite

 

We have a collection of Victorian glass eye-baths (some free-blown) in various colours and shapes, also a few pharmaceutical rarities (tablet-makers, bottles, etc).

Have a "childs chair" which was given to my mother in her infancy, about 1920's

 

The original hand drawn plans for the house.

Drawn in 1862

 

The stone doorstop, 4.54 Billion Years old, beat that.

 

How can that be when it's only a couple of thousand years since god created the earth?

 

Ah well, what people blindly believe written in a book, when they thought the Earth was flat, and what Science proves with the Scientific Method are two quite different things.

Faith vs Science/Maths, I'm in the latter camp, but in either case, the stone is oldest.

 

Can't beat 4.5 billion but do have an ammonite fossil from the Jurassic period circa 18 million years old
