Video: Mudlarking with Nicola White - A trip to Battersea & A Collection of Thames Treasures

Join me as I take a trip to the foreshore at Battersea to see what I can discover washed out on the Thames Foreshore by the tide. And then I go and visit Germander Speedwell who has a rather marvellous Alcove of Curiosities which includes some beautiful clay pipes, all found on the River Thames Foreshore. Now, I have a good pipe collection but you should see hers! It's a sight to behold - as well as other beautiful objects that Germander has retrieved from the River Thames Mud. There are even some that we could do with help identifying.

You can see more of Germander Speedwell's collection at:

You do need a permit to mudlark on the River Thames and you can find out the information that you need at
