My name is Nicola White. I am a licensed Thames Mudlark. Welcome to my UA-cam channel where you will discover the magic of mudlarking along the River Thames and the history behind the objects which I find. The River Thames is a tidal river. Each time the tide goes out it leaves us historical objects to find and research and you never know quite what you will find. John Burns, the 19th century MP described the River Thames as Liquid History. I would go one step further and describe it as giant liquid storybook full of fascinating stories from the past about people and places. Even finding a small button can take you on a wonderful journey of learning. Mudlarking for me is almost like a form of meditation and I go down to the River as often as I can when the tide is low.

In 1750 a dockyard worker dropped one of his belongings in the Thames mud. He was about to pick it up when someone called him over. By the time he went back to pick it up, the tide was coming in and it was lost in the Thames mud - where it stayed for almost 300 years. And then I found it! My favourite finds are those with names on and during this outing I was not disappointed. Come with me to s...

Whales are dieing from choking on trash in the middle of nowhere. We have to stop trash and pollution literally in a year for ever from now on because the heat is projected to be twice as hot next year . So we are going underground soon.
Great video
The red circle is a antique bicycle light lens worth a hundred dollars.
Great plan for lorraines Dads ashes❤😊
Ok so i was wrong about the ashtray, lol😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
That metal shell like item...i saw a video of you finding another one but much more ornamental. Someone suggested it was an ashtray which would be attached to the back or side of a chair perhaps in a movie theater❤❤❤❤
My Grandmother who lived in the deep woods of Louisianna used to sew satin and slicky nylon robes, nighties, underthings and then quilts and pillows from the scraps. I loved anything that sparkled and glittered when i was little and she would let me raid her button tins. She had the most beautiful rhinestone buttons and the metal casings looked very much like the ones you found. Brought back sweet memories❤
Great video
I really enjoyed this Lark! Thank you, Nicola❤
I bet Si could put an actual light in it for you😊
I Loooooove that pipe with the figure sitting on it❤❤❤❤❤ So adorable and artsy
A VERY VERY VERY BELATED Happy Birthday Nicola!!! Lol😅❤🎉
Brilliant, simply brilliant!
I totally agree with ezcapee!!! Kevin is such a sweetheart, so smart, nice looking and of course with that Brit accent he should be bold and share with us all of his mudlarking knowledge ❤ Julia is just a little doll. A real mudlark angel❤
As you always do, this was a home run Nicola. We have the privilege and pleasure of learning about this one of a kind river each week. Thank you for your hard work and efforts. g❤
Wonderful finds, and a stunning setting. Could WRS be an acronym for something to do with Wireless and Radio?
Great talk! By the way, 'Ye' was always pronounced 'the', but never 'ye'.
very glad you left Cornwall, Nicola. Love your stories & videos. Keep em coming, please!!
❤️

Wow!! That was amazing, fascinating , interesting+ = loved Every Second. Thank you ❤🎉
Glad you enjoyed it! Xx
beautiful woodpecker at the end! =D
Amazing xx

Ahh I didn't know you were from Cornwall Nicola! I often take a few minutes to purposely day dream back to the holidays as a child at my aunties cottage at Torpoint, Cornwall. The cottages front garden ended and the sea began! It was absolutely magical! It was directly opposite the Plymough Navy Frigate Dock, so you may know where I mean, maybe not though. But yeah, Cornwall is 😍 👌🏼
I love the fact you have a skull shelf. I don't have one myself, but I do have a couple leg bones from a deer that I found while beachcombing.
more important than pigeons rings are aluminium bird rings, used for research on migration. (my father founded EURING)
Красивая женщина☺
Nicola, you are so blessed to live in such a lovely place and to be able to bear witness to such an amazing sunrise❤
What fun!! All my favorite Brits and a bunch of old stuff to hunt thru❤❤
Spooky dolls, love the bowl.

What a great talk! You really made your finds come alive!
An absolutely riveting presentation! Thank you so very much for sharing it with us. I sincerely hope that the event reaches lots of new folk, who will become fascinated by the finds that they make.
Cool video!
French citizens are angry because 1 billion euros was spent to clean the Seine river to satisfy the Olympic committee request that the river water has to be clean to swim in. President Emmanuel Macron and Paris mayor Anne Hidalgo were going to swim in the river as an act of insurance. The plans were canceled because the angered were going to put e coli into the water in what I will only describe as a natural and organic communal experience .
The story of the trade bead by Fran is so poignant. This is something I never knew. Thank you for enlightening me
It was Father's Day here in the US last Sunday, and I was in northern Minnesota at my niece and nephew's cottage (we call them 'cabins' here) in the woods, with my grown son and nephew. So for the first time since I started watching your videos years ago, I missed one on the day it was released. Then, I had three gigs at libraries here in Wisconsin with my portable planetarium, at three different locations all around the state. AND I've been sick with a pretty intense sinus infection, which led to even more intense medicine to kill it. All of which goes to explain why this is by far the longest it's taken me to watch you. You asked what makes the time fly for us. For me, it's either looking up at the night sky -- with just my eyes, binoculars, or one of my telescopes; or, when making something, often a telescope or some accessory for one, but lots of other things, too, from furniture to clocks to bird feeders and other things that strike me.
Excellent!! So thoroughly loved your presentation! Your passion for what you do is so apparent in your knowledge, research and stories. Well done!! Cathy from Florida USA
And,please know this: Your Nkisi Kozo IS home,because you brought him home. He is your rescue dog,he will be by your side,always.
Hi Nicola, it's been great hearing about these people again, you are so lucky to be living near a place with so much history and so many interesting people. I hardly like to mention this, but the word (ye) has 2 meanings, an old English meaning 'you' and pronounced 'ye'. In the other usage the letter y is based on a rune called 'thorn' and if you look at the letter you will see the likeness to a thorn. In this case the letter is pronounced 'th' so 'ye' is pronounced 'the'. Look forward to the next episode of your wonderful journeys. xx
You are like a time machine, Nicola, you find the tether to bring forgotten people forward to modern time. I wonder what they would think of their journey to 2024? 🥰
RYou truly are a brilliant spokesperson for London's rivers Festival.I can think of no other person who can make this celebration a succes, a perfect and an entrancing presenter .Ncola you are a natural presenter.Your videos combine history ,a love of nature and a Archeologist who has a personal concern for the welfare of our globe....then there is your other strength as an Artist ,always very imaginatiive and beautiful. A wonderful video Nicola I just wish That it would go on forever forever. Lots of love as always XXX
Thank you Nicola. Really, really enjoyed your presentation from beginning to end. Thanks again. 😊
Yes, rivers are associated to life and spirituality. You made me remind how human history and nature were coupled by Joyce in one word, "Riverrun". Archeology and empathy are married in your stories too.
Wonderful information, such interesting stories!
I’m not sure….but didn’t you write a book? If not, I think you should!! It would definitely be a page Turner!! Always love your stories…..take care! ❤️❤️
Absolutely brilliant! I’m in Australia and yes we were taught about Todd and the telegraph line length & breadth of Australia! Once you mentioned it, I did remember Alice Springs being g named after his wife! There’s a Todd River in the Northern Territory! I was only mentioning your channel to a friend today, we were saying how we’d love to find a clay pipe in the Thames! 😊thank you again. So interesting 😊
Awesome video! I am sure the presentation was very well received. An idea, Netflix should sign you for a Thames Stories Documentary series, seriously! ❤
Thank you! ❤️
wow, love those stories. Great work ❤
Rippa stuff Nicola! Pleased I got to see it. Learned a new job 'gas stoker' too. Really pleased to be introduced to Fred and Millie. Jason sounds like he was a good bloke. Fred was round for a while which was good. Glad they found Millie Reminds me of my Mum's Dad. Not sure, if he was an Aus or a Brit, and was a Gallipoli Vet age 15, also about 1917/18 on the Western Front. Grenades from any war make a big BANG, then theres the fragments. Nice goin m8, pre 1900 is not I know a lot about. Your doing well m8, keep up the good work.
Thanks Greg!
Excellent and thank you!
