In today's special, Tristán White and Sharon Crawford visit the foreshore of the River Thames to tell you all about mudlarking, what it is, and the very strict rules and regulations you must follow if you decide to become one. They also attend a special day for mudlarking at Southwark Cathedral, where they get to talk to Lara Maiklem (whose book on the topic is amazing), as well as other mudlarks such as Jaime Rory Lucy, and Pippa from the Port of London Authority. They then try out making a clay tile replica (with the assistance of Raewyn Harrison) of something that archaeologist Mike Webber found, and then look at some replicas of pilgrim badges.
Right now, at the time of releasing this video, it is not possible to register as a new mudlark, but this will doubtlessly change soon, so keep a look out on the Port of London Authority's website. All links are below.
