It’s taken five years of wading, rummaging, sifting and heaving but my Wandle alphabet is finally complete – a complete A-Z made with objects found during clean-ups of the river Wandle with the Wandle Trust. I think my favourite has to be the false teeth ‘U’, though I am also very fond of ‘R’ and ‘O’. The ‘F’ is from a fish and chips sign.
It’s now available as an A1 sized, limited edition poster – it costs £20 with all proceeds going to future Wandle Trust work. Do email me if you are interested in buying one.
I adore this, Jane! It makes me want to do one as well, especially as spring is a big clean-up time in the woods and waterways around town.
you should definitely do one! Though it’s easy to get a bit obsessive and want to keep upgrading letters – definitely a slow project…
Hi Jane – I would love one of these but couldn’t see your email address anywhere? thanks!
Hi Hannah,
It’s info@janeporter.co.uk – I think I need to make it more obvious, it’s tucked away in the ‘about’ section!
