On 10 September 2026, a licensed mudlarker named Pauline Crowe will present stories about exploring the Thames foreshore and display her finds at Brixton Library. The event is held in London and takes place at 17:30. No ticket fee is required for attendance.
Licensed mudlarker, Pauline Crowe, will be sharing her stories of exploring on the Thames foreshore and showing some of her finds.
What did people do with their rubbish before the local Council did the bin collections? They threw it into the nearest river such as the Effra and the Walbrook and of course into the Thames. So what we find today when we are mudlarking is the most extraordinary cross section of items from bits off boats, to coins, pottery, animal bones and teeth, beads, bullets and a whole lot more dating from the prehistoric to the modern day.
Join Pauline Crowe to hear more about mudlarking and to see some of the items she has found.
