You must be careful not to pick anything up in or near Queenhithe which is strictly off limits to everyone ( these helpful maps on the Port of London Authority website give you all teh information you need http://www.pla.co.uk/display_fixedpage.cfm/id/4018) Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17561866816881655349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6537350948151927223.post-12582210594506112702013-03-22T17:26:21.591+00:002013-03-22T17:26:21.591+00:00So now that kids are at school and I don't hav...So now that kids are at school and I don't have to drive them to a farm field trip today, I pulled out last year's finds and identified them from your pictures. I think my transferware fragment is a fence - at first I thought it was railroad tracks, but a fence makes more sense. I'd love to email you the photo - my email is my name at gmail.com.

That would be easy for us, but we won't have a permit. Not sure I need the adventure of chatting with police in front of my big-eyed kids. We are planning to visit Cutty Sark - it was still closed last year when we were in London - now I think I'm talking myself into two mornings of mudlarking.

I discovered it a few days ago researching what permits my children and I should have to mudlark in April when we're in London (from Seattle). We spontaneously climbed down at low tide last year on a London trip, and found wonderful pipes and ceramics and a jug handle (the kids insisted on keeping the sheep leg bone we thought was a violin neck at first, until the Museum of London people pointed to an identical bone in a display - brought the thing all the way back to Seattle). Last year we were along the Southwark side east of Waterloo station, west of Tate. This year we'll be staying at Elephant & Castle. Would you recommend we mudlark at the same spot again, or is there somewhere else we should go? Should we try Greenwich in conjunction w/Cutty Sark (then I have to carry the bag of mucky treasure all day - is there more pottery there? The views are certainly beautiful.) Or is mudlarking like fishing and I've committed a major faux pas asking where to catch stuff? It won't be a super low tide while we're there, but we hope for kid-pleasing pottery to make a collage at home. Surface/eyes only, of course. Thank you for your blog!
