Last week the river gave me this beautiful 1901 halfpenny, minted the year Queen Victoria died, the first Australian Parliament opened, Theodore Roosevelt was sworn in as the 26th US President and the Boxer rebellion in China came to an end.

My old Mudlarking pal Pete moved to Tasmania a few years ago, but old habits die hard and he’s is still looking. So far he's found 7 buttons like mine, at a site associated with transported convicts and matched them to convict shirt buttons on the Museum of Sydney website

This year I became the first female juror for the Court Leet of the King’s Manor in Southwark in its 500+ year history. I am one of only 24 Jurors and they’ve also put me on this year’s Christmas card 😆

Found and left on the Thames foreshore, a late 19th to early 20th century fresnel lens from an old ship lantern. The design meant that the lens could be relatively thin and light, while still spreading its beam for some distance.

The tide was low enough a few weeks ago to see the remains of an early Anglo-Saxon fish trap, radiocarbon dated to AD 550-670.

A recent exciting and unexpected Thames find is this Tudor dress hook, which cd be used to hitch up your Tudor dress to keep it from trailing in the mud. As always I love to imagine who lost this & if she went home with a puddle soaked skirt hem #mudlarking #mudlark #tudorhistory
Thank you to Ken McAuley for sharing this amazing Thames find from last week. Its most likely to be a brass dog collar, dated 1692 and owned by Mr John Michell of 'Newington Butts in Surrey', which is now part of central London.

A wobbly bottom – the base of an 18th c wine bottle, found and left on the foreshore. Large enough to be from a mallet bottle, the transitionary shape between the squat onion bottles of the late 17th and early 18th c and the cylindrical bottles we recognise today.

Charles I stepped onto the wooden scaffold in front of Banqueting Hall on a bitterly cold day on 30 January 1649, exactly 373 years ago today.
Perhaps one of these Caroline coins, all found on the Thames foreshore, was in the pocket of a bystander.
