Do you ever go somewhere, and have a strong emotional response to it, such as happiness, nostalgia or fear? Have you ever wondered why we look for meaning in places and develop stories or legends about them over time? Well these behaviours are known as a sense of place. In general, a sense of place describes our relationship with places, expressed through the tangible and intangible aspects of human life: emotions, imagination, sound, touch, smell, and personal experiences. Sense of place can be a niche yet broad term, so the aim of this podcast is to bring together the variety of disciplines & creative individuals that try to understand and explore a sense of place!

Tom Chivers is a writer, publisher and Mudlark (someone who searches for objects on the banks of the River Thames).
In 2021, Tom wrote ‘London Clay: Journeys in the Deep City’, which was described by Becky Wragg Sykes as “an intoxicating voyage into urban time and place, revealing the city’s geological skeleton...”. During the episode, Tom and I discuss ‘London Clay,' his passion for Mudlarking, and the significant role it plays in his life, and the lives of others.
