#MUDLARKING

[@Ambrette84]

One of my favourite KZbin channels. I love the crafts and the new channels with the dolls house even more now. Watching your videos is like therapy for the soul. I don’t think anything else relaxes me as much as your videos.

[@harridan.]

you said that quite beautifully, and i agree.

[@zeegervanroemburg9146]

I totally agree with you, the joy when Kate finds something !! Love them💕💕

[@janefraser8808]

A ⁴¹áźźźźźzzzzz

[@MudlarkingWithKitCaboodlers]

Thank you so much :)

[@charlesperez9976]

I love little dollhouse things,so yay,we’re in the same boat!😊

[@fee_in_the_shed]

My father remembers the workhouse at the bottom of St Luke’s Road, Leeds, when he was a youngster (He was born in 1925) The York Workhouse where my grandmother was born, was turned into York Hospital

[@theresac.3216]

The black bead looks like a cat to me. Like Sunny Cat ! 🐱

[@joanneowen4540]

It never ceases to amaze me that you find useful/ interesting things among the vast, mono colored beach debris..the journey they took to land where you find them..and a new tide will always bring more..may you continue to get better Kate, and thank you always for the joy of sharing with you the beauty of past.

[@fionasimagination]

That round thing with the groove almost looked like a yo-yo 😆

[@heatherreinsmith8286]

The tiny hinge looks like a guitar without its neck!! You could make a toy guitar for the dolls

[@tamispock3617]

I enjoy learning the history of your artifacts, as well as seeing the treasures you find. You are sunshine on those cold dreary days that you go Mudlarking.

[@howardwest1347]

That funny shaped black bead makes me think of a stretchy bracelet where the point of one bead fits into the dent in the next bead

[@cdmikie]

your clear glass blob of glass looks like a little mouse and the nesting bead looks like a cat head of sorts.

[@noraleestone2859]

I applaud the Sherd Stories idea, although the subject this time was very depressing. I've always enjoyed having pottery/porcelain pieces featured in their own separate clip, such as what the West Country Mudlarks do. 😍😁 There are so many stunning patterns to be found. Great video, ladies. Congrats on more beautiful beads. See you next time. 😊🥰💛👍

[@anitamitchell3452]

As always, very interesting to see what you two can find. Thank you for sharing.

[@rockreader4298]

Fleur and Kate, Thanks for taking us to your beach to lark with you. Lots of beads, odd finds and history to accompany the finds. Congrats on your Roman pottery, Fleur. Please take good care of each other. We Love You. ( : Nance in Nor Cali.

[@andyn3532]

They still used some of the old workhouses for homeless families well into the nineties and they still weren't very nice places to be and the attitude with which the people and families hadn't changed much either.

[@Parsley96]

That is an absolutely awesome medallion you found. I owe my life and sobriety to AA and loved being able to pick up my sobriety chips each month. What I wouldn’t give to find one of those!! I love that history!! Another fabulous larking ladies!!❤

[@anniegironne8444]

Still the favorite beach for many reasons. So many great finds. Beautiful sceneries.

[@rachael7713]

I have a 2nd cousin who was born in a workhouse near Bournemouth in 1936, she and her mother had to stay for 4 years to pay back the “care” they received!

[@JonFrumTheFirst]

I hope Katie is feeling better by now - best wishes from New England to Old England!

[@reivenne]

The bracelet bead would make a cute little dipping inkwell or mortar bowl for a dollshouse

[@bonnerdebbie]

Great video, awesome history lesson and lovely finds. Feel better soon Kate!

[@helenstine8605]

I’m so sorry that you were ill,Kate, but so glad that you were able to do a bit of mudlarking. Hopefully you will continue to heal! Thank you both for sharing your unique finds- truly incredible!

[@cynthiat6505]

Kate, you’re wearing one of my favorite colors on your nails! Love the little pot. I so enjoy you and your mama, my mama and I had a sweet relationship

[@catepearce2138]

Wishing you a quick recovery Kate, you did well to stay at the beach and have a great day larking. From my comfy seat that beach looks very difficult, so much broken crockery etc. You both must have eagle eyes to spot the things you do find. Don't have a favorite, love them all!!! Have a good week, catch you up on your other channel. xx

[@arlenegariepy8957]

Kate looks like Paddington bear lol too cute! :) I watched alot of time team the burnish ware has crude bits in it. Great finds and eagle eyes ladies for the beads. :) :)

[@anoniaciesluk3273]

Like the glass tadpole!

[@hazellinajane]

Ooooh love the army temperance medallion! Soooo interesting! My house used to be a temperance hotel, I find the temperance thing fascinating!

[@Robinski000]

Beautiful Roman find!!! Also the funny shaped black bead could be used as a cat head for another bead doll if you dot some little eyes onto it

[@sticklebacksummer]

Funny, I thought the same

[@hazel3564]

I was amazed when you found the tiny bit of pottery with Berlin on it. My daughter was born in West Berlin in 1974 when the wall was still there. My husband was stationed there with the USAF.

[@mrsmac6193]

Would love to see a piece of jewelry with all the black glass beads!

[@shirleycantoni3152]

Because of all the wonderful goodies you get to find, storing, and the way you display it is also very important. I can imagine how much fun you would both get rearranging your shelves, displays areas and cupboard displays, that’s also half the fun. That’s where I get most of my fun, rearranging and displaying my treasures. One day, if your game enough, would love to see how you display all your treasures, display areas, shelves treasure cabinets, display rooms etc.. That would be an absolutely treat and I bet truly wonderful ❤️❤️

[@kariannecrysler640]

Loving the Sherd Stories! Very exciting and looking forward to more 😊 Stay warm you two.🍀

[@debrabrooks6138]

What interesting finds! I think the white pully, is a footwarmer plug but the screw part broke off it.. Such history in small objects!

[@izabelabhering7041]

You brave souls in that windy beach! I trust Kate has recovered by now, please take good care of yourselves, your videos brighten my week every time! I love the idea of the mourning necklace!!! Looking forward to your next adventure! 💐🧩💐🧩💐🧩

[@Cate7451]

That tiny hinge could be a treadle for a sewing machine❤

[@jeannienash5249]

I love it when you make Crafts with for the dolls house, Fleur💖

[@kathykeith2203]

I love watching these ladies!

[@janetkarel7137]

Cold and windy day for you. Thank you for the videos.

[@fairyacorn4854]

I found that all very interesting and love the badge thing. Lots of lovely beads too and my favorite was the pinky mauve one that Kate found. Interesting stories about the workhouse.

[@mellomelo119]

I am so glad you went to the beach today ! It felt almost like I got out today. I look forward to this kind of day but I do feel bad that you have to go out in the cold, and then poor Kate being sick on top of all that. Please get better Kate. And take good care of yourself !!!

[@richardserridge2767]

I hope lovely Kate is getting better... Everybody is ill at the moment I think 😬 Some nice finds there and I love the green on Kate's nails. I'm clear of yucky Covid at last and dad is perked up now 😁 I agree that mourning black glass beads are lovely! A string of them will look great. That lead shot could be a slingshot one hence the dinks in it.

[@MudlarkingWithKitCaboodlers]

Glad you are feeling better :)

[@LeapingLeapords]

I love the whooshing noise after you took away the glass whiskey seal😊

[@graceh8866]

Kate hope you get better soon take care of yourselves. Great finds ladies

[@karencross1964]

The odd shaped black glass bead looks like a cat's head. The low angle shot of the beach is very colorful. It would make a nice framed print. picture Great video.

[@kathryndeloria1834]

Thank you girls! Great to watch and listen while I work on making a braided rug.

[@carolekinsey7835]

Fab lark ladies. Some very interesting finds. Some so old its a wonder that they survive at all. Love the history bits you research. As i do on my other favourite larkering channels. That sobriety badge was a very different find, which is great. You never can tell what will turn up next. The seas been collecting all sorts for as long as creatures walked the earth. Anythings possible to wash up on the shore eventually A lovely start to a new year of hunting for treasures. Shame you were feeling so crook Kate. Get better soon. Xx

[@zbigniew.8261]

Chciałbym mieć takie miejsca które odwiedzacie miłe panie , niestety w Polsce brak , dlatego czekam z niecierpliwością na wasze wyprawy. 👍 Pozdrawiam serdecznie 🇵🇱

[@carolrayk]

Sherd stories, very interesting. Love history and your input gives more meaning to your finds. Thank you.

[@suzannedavis6855]

The photography is wonderful. Keep it coming, please.

[@SongOfSongsOneTwelve]

God bless anyone dealing with or having dealt with covid. Keep your vitamin D levels up!

[@klarson9652]

I look forward to seeing your mourning bead necklace. It will be beautiful. The round metal ball early in your video reminded me of the fishing weights my dad uses. They clamp on to the fishing line. And, I think it would be wonderful if you made an alphabet using the single letters you’ve found on glass, or perhaps one with ceramic pieces. Feel better, poor Kate! Being sick is misery. And thanks to you both for another deeply enjoyable video!

[@jaynerees5459]

Love watching you and your gorgeous family..so relaxing ❤️

[@marciajohnson6767]

Very interesting video! Fantastic finds. Hope Kate feels much better getting fresh air and hunting for tiny treasures

[@susancousins8766]

Your finds are old and wonderful 😮so happy you will be using them for different arts and crafts. It’s so strange to see that 1800s medallion with the #6 on it. When my husband was alive he was approximately 22 years sober and had many medallion’s. I wish he were here to see the one you found. Thanks for sharing the history of the work houses. Great video 💗💗💗💗💗

[@lindastowars7346]

I SO ENJOY WATCHING YOU GUYS SEARCHING FOR TREASURES

[@fluffyspit]

I was a nurse in Preston Hospital in North Shields which had been a workhouse ( named Tynemouth Union Workhouse). There were definite vibes in parts of that place…could feel the unhappy history of it.

[@toastnotoflondon8500]

I hooe Goddess Kate recovers quickly. Those were some very interesting historical finds and so close.

[@maroulio2067]

Wonderful, as usual- I have so much calming pleasure watching you on the beach and also learning about the shards. The work houses segment was so sad- luckily those institutions are in the past. And Kate, I wish you quick recovery.

[@christhompson4270]

Get better soon Kate. That little glass blob with the little bit sticking up, could you make a experimental item for Brontes room? Loved the video guys. Take care and thank you for sharing 👍🙏❤️

[@sandybuchart6017]

Kate, hope you are feeling well ! I think the piece of pottery with the full mark of the workhouse would make a great necklace !

[@elainekayes8087]

Some amazing finds ladies oh the letter E for Elaine xx

[@barbaraverdoorn9076]

I would have to craft that tiny hinge into a guitar for the dols house. Lol

[@marymills7555]

havnt seen your little brother lately. miss his amazing smile .

[@Chrissie1983]

Hiya 👋 🌸 love the little treasures esp the beads, so many sizes, designs, wow you're so lucky to have a favourite spot that you both go to! Thank you for another video, always enjoy watching you ladies X X

[@heidihalderman1118]

Sherd beach. In the US we say shard. So much scattered joy.

[@iansuehooper7542]

Very pleased to hear you feeling a lot better Kate, the lark and the freshhhh air would have helped. Love the choices of background music for the videos you two produce. Fleur, that bit of Roman you found is a jewel, the inside finish is fascinating. The varied colours of the beads you found were a treat. Good idea with the sherd (or as we use to say in Africa shard) segment, look forward to some stories.

[@marydegenkolb9603]

The glass with the white circles is made by adding the cut white circles to the top of the colored glass, then clear is layered over the white dots to seal them in.

[@stevehands4262]

Great to see Kate well enough to be on the beach, even if at some points she looked a little bit like Paddington Bear. Wondering if the black burnished wear could be a crucible for melting lead. Love the whistle of the wind too.

[@jonihenry8124]

Great video as usual, Ladies!! Kate, I hope you feel better soon!!

[@carolynchatham6376]

Such interesting finds. I would love to see you make a piece of mourning jewelry. Hope you feel better soon

[@janetgies8698]

This is fun & relaxing to watch. Hello from (badly needed) rainy California. 🌧 💦☔️

[@conken5623]

Black silk thread knotted between beads would be lovely

[@mleshoestar777]

I like Kate's skittle nail polish :)

[@gabrielebehr563]

Springing bead day. Great Video👍

[@kentuckylady2990]

Love the sound of the wind. It brings back memories of my childhood when my family lived in two story farm house. I would often fall asleep listening to the wind whistling around the corners of the house on cold winter nights.

[@sticklebacksummer]

Beautiful memories

[@gailsimmons456]

Of course, I love your videos, and I am so interested in personally. Also I love the music accompaniment. It is soothing and so lovely. USA

[@eringemini7091]

I thought that pot was definitely Roman, (even the Barnacles 🦠looked like they once sported Spears & Shields)(lol)😉

[@lesjones5684]

I want a kit for Christmas lol 😂under the Christmas tree 🎄

[@susanpye9821]

I really enjoy the history of your finds that badge was my favourite

[@judysparks1132]

Lovely video great finds 😀 thank you really enjoyably x

[@ashlingofAsh7580]

Yay! A bunch of sea glass and sponge wear. Loved the maybe sponge wear like stick peice Kate touched but didn't take it. Way it wore was neat. Saw something green with two white lines on it when you found the lavender bead

[@sadielevens1144]

Very interesting finds today. Thank you.

[@amandabell8827]

The poor people in the workhouses, it's heartbreaking! The medallion is fabulous, what a wonderful find and an interesting history. A fascinating collection of things! 😀💗 x

[@lesleybennet4804]

Lovely finds as always ❤Kate hope your feeling better soon

[@debbiecarper1232]

Thank you, now I know what a work house is. I always wondered when Scrooge said(are there no prisons are there no work houses?) I didn't know what a workhouse was. I really like the info you guys give on the items you find. A fan. Deb C

[@harridan.]

for true stories from the shadow of the workhouses read the Call the Midwife books by Jennifer L Worth, a district nurse and midwife in the poorest part of London right after WW2, when there were still people whose lives were horribly affected by the workhouses.

[@tarrasams7423]

Hello 👋 from New York USA Thank you for Bringing me Along with you Guy's I can't wait to see What you Guy's find in the New Year 😊

[@SongOfSongsOneTwelve]

14:52 Mortarium en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortarium. I”m definite it’s Roman; seems narrow for a mortar but the surface is very curious. The Romans were excellent with ceramics and glass. Amazing finds. ❤Feel better, Kate!

[@bernicedeakins5043]

Sorry Kate you're not feeling well 😔 Another great, interesting video

[@darrylwillett8359]

Hope you lovely ladies are having a wonderful new year. Keep up the great saves.

[@sticklebacksummer]

Heard a Conservative say that we should bring back workhouses for the homeless. Loved the history and the sound of the wind. Poor Kate does seem prone to illnesses, hope she recovers soon.

[@georgiaware3248]

Oh what a nice video, Love the small stuff, & Dolly parts Thanks😁🌹🌹🙋‍♀️

[@cherylenelson4828]

So many enjoy your doll house videos, they are enticing. I am a story teller. Could there be a children's book in the characters you have created? Just a thought. Thank you for sharing your joy. Truly.

[@MudlarkingWithKitCaboodlers]

It could be haha :)

[@1062ish]

Great video ladies. The work shops were criminal ): just closed in 1948! Terrible. I love fishing, so my first thought was a large lead fishing split shot weight as there appears to be a seam around the metal ball 🤔 hope you feel better Kate. Thanks again for what you both do for us. We are sooooo spoiled so we are 💕

[@merlekilby6043]

I love watching your videos, they are so relaxing 🙂 xx

[@racheltalbot6345]

I love ur channel I found it by accident. My husband is from Lincolnshire & tells me about the history, which I find fascinating. Thank you for putting me onto mudlarking I absolutely love it. And once I go to the UK it’s going to be the first thing I do!!

[@harridan.]

don't forget to inquire re mudlarking license

[@Nicole-coliebrobro]

Those are some pretty awesome finds, the roman piece you could even use as a small dish... Love the beads as well, it would be interesting to know how many black faceted ones you have! Yes, would be into more Sherd Stories too.

[@marmor4663]

Hello from France, thank you so much for your videos, so interesting and relaxing! For your black pot: to know if it is old as Roman or Gallo-roman, you can try to put it under water in a bowl. If it makes very little bubbles of oxygen(in a few seconds) , it might be Roman or older. If not, it is younger. I hope you' ll understand my message with my poor english. I wish you the best, and a better health for Kate. 😊

[@Mamachaps]

Great episode thanks ladies, really interesting 😊💖

[@kathisease9924]

Oh Kate I'm glad you are feeling better:) Such a nice trip to the beach! I can't believe that bit of Roman was just waiting there for you; such a great find. Love the badge of course, and I think the idea of constructing a black jet necklace from your collection sounds amazing! Thanks ladies for sharing, and stay well.

[@Janettemay64]

A roman mortarium. Nice find.

[@susieg4624]

Brilliant beach for mudlarking - couldn't believe the amount of pottery. (Pestle and mortar. The Romans roughend the inside to assist with grinding.)

[@cherylmitchell496]

I love your channel. You've got me looking down as I walk in the city here in the USA. I see a lot of the broken tiles you walk over thinking they would make a great tiled floor for a dollhouse.
