Published: July 28, 2026
Duration: 56:59
When we go on holiday to the coast, we tend to overlook the stories of the people who live and work there. Natasha Carthew grew up in a working class community in Cornwall and has travelled around the UK's coast to discover the hidden world of the modern seaside.
Plodcast host Fergus Collins meets Natasha for a wander around Bristol Harbour to hear some of these sad, beautiful and sometimes tragic stories.
Natasha's book, Rough Edges: Where Land Meets Water, the Untold Stories of Coastline Communities, is published by Sceptre
