The London Mudlark, Lara Maiklem, will be at Tidefest this year on Sunday, September 8th signing copies of her new book – A Mudlarking Year: Finding Treasure in Every Season (Bloomsbury, 2024)

“Lara wanders the shores of the River Thames at low tide, searching for lost and forgotten objects that tell tales of the past and bring forgotten Londoners to life.”

Come along to the marquee at Strand on the Green between 12 and 3pm to learn more about the fascinating history of London’s river.
