'Noisome stinking scum': how Londoners protested river pollution in the 1600s

Monday, April 24, 2023

While a recent flurry of stories and reports could make this crisis feel very new to us, river pollution and concerns over it have a long history.

Key Points: 
  • While a recent flurry of stories and reports could make this crisis feel very new to us, river pollution and concerns over it have a long history.
  • My research shows that, even in the era of Shakespeare’s “filth-clogged” Thames, river pollution was far from acceptable.
  • From as early as 1489, protections for rivers were starting to take on language that made clear that preservation was a chief concern.
  • The Fleet river (left) was a “notorious” sewer by the 17th century, and as the map shows, it flowed directly into the Thames.
  • Thomas Powell lamented the river’s treatment in a 1679 religious work, suggesting people treated God in a similar way to the river: poorly.
  • But the reaction to their pollution shows us that, even in a time with limited alternatives, this scenario was not simply accepted without complaint.
