Join me for a lark on the Thames foreshore and discover a variety of finds from 17th century modern day. 17th Century stoneware to 21st century plastic.
At the moment there is no mudlarking permitted on the Thames foreshore. The footage in this video was taken prior to the lockdown. I've been enjoying reliving it as I edit this video.
The Thames is like a giant liquid storybook and it holds within so many stories, both ancient and modern. On this video we find a beautiful chunk of 17th century pottery, some 19th century clay pipes and some mysterious items that I would like know more about. We also leave the swans behind for some parakeets living in a tree in my garden!

If you are interested in trying out mudlarking then you need a permit from the Port of London Authority. You can find all the details here:-
