What is a tosher?


  • One who scavenges the sewers:A tosher was much more recognized during the Victorian era in London, England. A tosher is a person who scavenges in the sewers for discarded or lost valuables. As the actions of these people would suggest, they were not the pillars of London society in the days of Victorian England. The term 'tosher' would also be frequently used to describe thieves who woud attack ships moored along the Thames Rivers. These tosher thieves would strip copper from the hulls of the ships to resell. Copper was a valuable commodity during the time. Source: Definitions.net
