Oh my goodness, I'm completely smitten! I'd love to spend days doing this- thank you for showing this.

I think I am up to 5 times so far the amount of times I have said aloud, "TROWEL! There's a trowel... oh, right..." while watching your videos.

Lovely how you make everyone else, the finds, shore, and river, the stars of your videos.

It's just astonishing the amount of history that's held on the shores of the Thames. You could discover an item lost just days old or you could find something that dates back to the time of the Roman empire. That's just amazing beyond words to me. Thank you very much for sharing the experience and a congratulations to all on the wonderful finds!

Welcome to UK

I'm **soooo** envious of mudlarkers on the Thames! Being in a really young country (New Zealand) we could **never** find the really cool old things that are found along the Thames!

A *400 year-old high school!* Wow! That's the kind of ancient history that I love about the UK (and their *geology* has it as well - Cambrian, Silurian and so on....).

nicola white mudlark - Tideline Art That’s a wish of mine! What a wonderful dream!

Recovering from surgery and very entertained by your adventures. Thanks for the welcome distraction. Tonina in South Dakota.

The kayak guys were really cute! I loved all the inkwells. It was fun to see what different people found and what their eyes are trained to lock onto.

Incredibly amazing! I love love love when you show all of your finds and then tell us all about it! I’m always rooting for you to get something amazing!

I am so impressed by all your finds, especially the ancient Roman coin. Such a fantastic hobby! Decades ago my father found some small shards of un-glazed Indian pottery at an eroded spot on the ground just after a rain storm. Judging by the local history the pottery shards could have been from as recent as 1750, but more probably were from before that time. Those were very rare finds. I can barely comprehend the volume and variety of things you find along your river and the rich heritage those things represent. I remain in awe of your home. Your knotted piece looks like the button version of the metal cuff links I wear with my dress shirts.

Mudlarking the Thames is one of my favorite memories from travelling. Thank you for sharing!

Such great finds by such great people. Thx so much I know I so enjoy every single video and I very seldom leave my own house let alone my own Country. So THANK-YOU for allowing me to go with you. You all Rock.❣❣❣

You and Simon always find beautiful relics, I love your videos. Thank you

Speaking for myself, living in the States I sure do find your history an amazing subject and I love seeing all these reclaimed artifacts you guys get to scrounge around for, makes me jealous. Keep it up.

Nicola, another wonderful "mudlarking" adventure. I looked up the small piece that Simon found with the name H.G. Avery on it.....he is noted for contributing to some advances in corset designs. This was in 1870 in Hackney.

Another very informative video Nicola with interesting finds. Thank you!

Nicola - your videos are utterly fascinating. Hundreds & hundreds of years of history is in that river.

Thanks again, Nicola! Very interesting video again!

Amazing what has been found on the shores of the Thames, mind boggling.

excellent as always Nicola

Well that was fun. Thanks for sharing! I love how you bring in the history on some of your finds. That’s half the fun. I use to do this sort of thing in S Ontario, Canada when I was a teen. Did a lot of bottle hunting in old dumps, as well. Brings back a lot of fond memories!

WHAT A WONDERFUL DAY, I LOVED THE INK POTS, NICE MARBLES, GREAT FINDS FOR ALL OF YOU. THANKS TO ALL. CAMILLE AUSTRALIA

Excellent discoveries for all. I do find it fascinating that many histories are unraveled on one of your adventures. Thanks for sharing this special educational adventure. See you again soon.

I think all of those finds are fascinating and most particularly the Roman coins. I have a friend who is a retired teacher and he used to take classes to the site of The Battle of Waterloo. On one of his visits, it was raining heavily and he spotted something round sticking out of the ground. It turned out to be a musket ball. Sounds simple but it fired my imagination.

Yes, there is something about actually finding something that motivates you to learn about it. I would not really have been so interested in Lord Rodney if Matt had not found that cufflink. It is history you can touch.

Love this woman it so interesting to watch.

I love your films Nicola, its so restful listening to the river lapping in the background and the swans and boats. Thanks

love it love it love it

What a lot of nice treasures to find. Looks like you all had a wonderful day mudlarking. As usual Nicola a great video. Please be safe kayaking on the Thames. 😊

I just found an inkwell on the coast here in maine 1890's carter's 44 ;) I'm a kindred mud covered woman across the seas, love your videos and I must say I'm quite jealous of the opportunity you have at your fingertips!

I’m so glad I’ve found u! Thank u!

Another great video of Thames mudlarking Nicola a good haul as well, so interesting the history behind the objects you find.

Absolutely fascinating video Nicole enjoyed every second of it I am amazed at what you find from Roman to the 21st century it’s mind blowing love the idea of kayaking up the Thames look forward to your next maybe on a kayak. Thanks for sharing

Congrats to all of you-fantastic finds! The ancient Roman stuff is fascinating. And of course I love the ink pots. The porkpie and sheared top styles were popular on this side of the Atlantic as well. Cheers!

Thank you for sharing! Love all the wondering!

I really enjoy and appreciate your videos thank you.

How could these two guys not agree to not have the likes of you along Nicola?😄😊😇

Hi Nicola, What fantastic weather and a great lark. Love the ink bottles. Cheers Wendy x

Interesting to see, how different people have different eyesights on objects. Matt‘s and Nicole‘s findings differ very much, from the allover view

I was under the impression that the older the pipe the smaller the bowl? Damn that looks like fun and fires the imagination!

Top quality stuff 👍🏼

Super finds and a super video! Best regards! 😁👍

A very nice episode ...

Well done you found good stuff indeed. That cartridge was a blank Crimped on the end as it was. Couldn't see if it was American 30/06 or British 303. 303 's are a rimmed cartridge and 30/05 has an extractor groove.

Amazing finds with fascinating history attached. Thanks so much for sharing! Happy mud larking! ~ Gypsy

Nicola you are a natural at interviewing, you definitely should have your own show muckraking of course very interesting. Love it !!...

Gosh I knew I had left my glass ink pot somewhere 😂 I think the metal knots at the begining are a button too. It looks like a metal version of a silk knotted button. My mum has a cardigan with knot buttons that look awefully like but larger Thank you so much everyone. Lovely finds, lovely video 😊
