Jeanette Brinkerhoff If you do plan on doing so you’ll have to get a permit first. You can find the information that you need on the port authority of London website.
First time watching. Amazed at all the pipe stem pieces scattered all over. Guess you dont pick those up or the partial bowl pcs. Thought I saw a gun flint as well. Thanks for sharing!! Would love to metal detect there!
There are no lovely riverside to mudlark around here. What a shame. My version of mudlarking is to walk or ride my bike along the roads where I find a lot of coins, brass and copper (for the metal recycler) ,the rare paper money, and interesting odds and ends. There is a drainage ditch that yielded a bonanza of fossilized shark teeth and other fossils until it got to overgrown to search. And of course parking lots and car wash places that I have found not only coins but also the occasional piece of jewelry once in a blue moon. But the UK has a much longer history of people living there than we have here in the US. Sigh... you got better and more interesting stuff yo find. Wish I could go over to try it. Love your videos! Thank you for putting them up
My lens cap is in the bilge's of hms Belfast....have you found that? It was lost from my Om10 circa 1995. I can still here the rattle of it to this day.
Apparently although the age differs between 50 or 300 years depending on what you read/hear. Clear as mud really. My folks live in Kent so........Most finds stay there. My mum gave me a 1901 QV penny and I bought a smashed 1866 QV penny at a flea market. Not exactly items I would consider export license worthy. In fact I have purchased 1800's QV farthings in Bismarck, ND. Anyone wishing to buy Roman coins in the UK can do so at the London Medal Company on Cecil Street. Somehow I bet no one mentions to the tourists that they would need an export license for a Roman coin, right?
Why did you leave that one brick with a lot of writing on it towards the end of the video? Maybe to heavy? Wonderful old brick, especially with the company name on it.....I guess for another mudlarker to take with? Just Subscribed to your channel...Love your videos and wished I lived close to the River Thames. Canada doesn’t have that kind of history...Sigh! HH and GL....:-)
Unfortunately the Port Authority of London just made it mandatory to have a permit to even surface search. I have a permit already which expires at the end of the year. My advise would be to walk the foreshore and if asked tell them you are keeping your eyes to the ground in the interests of "health and Safety". God knows since I left the UK the British Government has doubled down on H&S to the point of ridiculous.
Bullets and Buttons the government will try anything to tax you, ask you for a licence..... sad world we live in! soon we will need a permit to breathe. Great video by the way 👍
Bullets and Buttons Nothing to do with health and safety. It’s to dissuade treasure hunters from taking items of historical interest away and flogging them on eBay and to deter scumbags from discarding their Coke cans while they’re looking. That said - the licence fee is extortionate
🤔 *@**1:08**, if the tide goes above that long barrier wall I'd bet alot of coins and things wash into the side of it and get stuck.* 😯 *@**6:12**, coin- middle screen, on the ground, look right below your thumb.*
The WW marks on the cut stone look like Marian marks rather than Masons marks and It is thought many of them date to the 16th and 17th Century and can be found carved into the masonry of many churches and some secular buildings . Check out the book by Matthew Champion on Medieval Graffiti.
dm51964 Well I doubt its moved. Its close to the wall and closer to the fish market than the access stairs. Sounds like something that should be recovered.
Good finds ,thank for sharing your video. Your friend Shirley from new Bern , north Carolina USA ❤❤❤

Thank you Sir!

Good video. Do you need an export licence to take things back to the USA?

@Echo 9970 Oh well that might be interesting as its such a historical place. But do they still use the chains?
I would so love to do that but I watch a show there is so many rules to it great watching hope you find some old silver coins out there
Late replying but thanks!
Liked and shared for you matey.
The Man With The Hat Thank you Stephen!
The birds were rooks not ravens, which are much bigger. Great video though.
Ha! Okay then! Thanks!

I really want to go mudlarking one day.
Its well worth it Jason!!
I would like to know if anyone notices flint that has been worked over and used for lighting tobacco and fires?
Dave I have seen flint down there. As to whether it’s worked by man or nature that is hard to say.
the Chinese building pottery might be a blue willow piece
Great video! Do u need a permit just to walk the foreshore?

have a permit to even surface search. I have a permit already which

Bullets and Buttons alright thank you! I may be heading overseas there this upcoming summer and would like to see it! Happy hunting!

Oysters were a common diet. Mostly poor people are them as they were cheap to buy.
