Mudlarking

If you’re a regular reader here at Matouring, you’ll know how much we love London.  We lived there and explored nearly every nook and cranny of that most celebrated of cities.  And every time we return, we find new gems to squeal about.

One activity that you may not think about when in The Smoke is wandering down to the shores of the River Thames  and doing a little poking around in the mud (low tide, of course!)  There are dozens of Facebook groups devoted to this activity (known as mudlarking) and some members walk away with some spectacular historical finds.  You never know….

Well, the bard of European travel, Rick Steves has also gotten hooked on this somewhat obscure activity.  Read more here about it.

There are some fantastic walks along the Thames, like the London Thames Embankment
