so I'm a wreck in the Thames, am I? I saw the first programme, but missed last night's. I'll catch it when it's repeated. More archaeological news: 'they' are currently building new flats at the end of my street, in a place which was formerly Lovell's Wharf and Granite Wharf, and before that part of Greenwich Marsh. While digging the foundations they have discovered what archaeologists believe is a 13th century tide mill. They're getting quite excited about it (although I suspect the builders are none too pleased) because it was thought that there was no industry in the area at the time, and tide mills are quite rare from that period; in fact, almost nothing was known about the area, it being a marsh in those days. No doubt it will still be concreted over, but in my idealistic moments I fantasise that they'll cancel the flats and turn it all into a wetland again for me and the cormorants to enjoy.
