In the latest of reports from Sound Radio roving reporter Peter Day we get a unique look at the River Thames in an East London context. Rather than conjure up a picture of old boots and shopping trolleys with a little help from an expert we get an opportunity to wade through the history of the Thames and get a unique insight into the lives and habits of Londoners past.
Amongst other things we discover a curious connection between Oysters and discarded fast food cartons as well as get the contact details of how to discover more of the Thames secrets.
For a fascinating journey into local history this pod cast is essential listening.
