Mudlarks
In the 18th and 19th centuries Mudlarks would search the muddy shores of the River Thames at low tide for anything that could be sold; and sometimes, when occasion arose, pilfering from river traffic. By at least the late 18th century people dwelling near the river could scrape a subsistence living this way.
More recently, metal-detectorists and other individuals searching the foreshore for historic artifacts have described themselves as "mudlarks".
Treasures in the sand! Hundreds of artefacts and handfuls of coins! And our most amazing find yet!
Treasure hunting after a storm. Amazing artefacts on the beach! Gold, silver & over 50 coins found!
What is in the hole?! Metal detecting our Scottish farmhouse plus the history of our finds.
