The Armpits of the Thames


View from the Trafalgar Tavern

 "The river was a place for children... but it wasn't a nice place for children." Mudlarker Lara Maiklam, maritime historian S.I. Martin and senior curator of the Royal Observatory Louise Devoy join Helen Czerski for a look under the hood in this week's Ships, Sea and the Stars, while I can be heard reading a nineteenth-century engraver's gush. It is, as ever, the good stuff.
