What sort of permission do you need to go mudlarking on the Themes ? I read in and old Treasure hunting that Copper nails (from copper clad Ships) where worth a few pounds each to collectors :o all the best Phil ! Title: Re: Manxies Go A Mudlarking Post by: PHIL YNYSBOETH on March 19, 2009, 12:51:38 PM Good idea Kev !
Put my name down for that one geoff lol Title: Re: Manxies Go A Mudlarking Post by: Spooyt Vane on March 19, 2009, 01:04:11 PM Phil go through Thames & Field web site they will organise the permitts, check the tides for you and show the ropes.
Steve Booker is the contact. :) :) Title: Re: Manxies Go A Mudlarking Post by: Tafflaff (Rob) on March 19, 2009, 01:11:59 PM Geoff . could we start a thread maybe on 'Trip Ideas' , not so much a rally , but an organised trip to places like the thames or certain beaches. Just a thread that people can throw ideas around maybe?
Title: Re: Manxies Go A Mudlarking Post by: PHIL YNYSBOETH on March 19, 2009, 01:27:58 PM Thanks for the info Rob (Vane) i,ll have a look at that later ;0)
Rob (taff) good idea Last year our club (RARE) was going to the British Museum Via coach but it never came off;0( something to do with the Bus company we used had to apply for a permit or something like that. Maybe a Museium trip or Bath even ! Title: Re: Manxies Go A Mudlarking Post by: Merlin on March 19, 2009, 03:51:19 PM Would like to try that on the river usk where it pours out into the channel.Dodgy tides and lots of dodgy mud though.Think I might get myself down to the foreshore at redwick,or goldcliff in newport during the summer.nice bit of beach combing!
Title: Re: Manxies Go A Mudlarking Post by: mickycoin "mick" on March 19, 2009, 04:14:38 PM hi Rob can anyone go mudlarking on the thames , ? or do you require a permit noticed there was a lead token in the picture, was that also an eyes only find . looks good fun mick
Title: Re: Manxies Go A Mudlarking Post by: Spooyt Vane on March 19, 2009, 05:18:23 PM Mick the lead token was eyes only and you do need a permit, most of finds are very shallow. Phil I dont know about
coach load on health safety grounds, but check with Steve Booker 07854873299 and you want stop over night the YHA Thameside is beside the Thames and quite cheap 08707706010.
