@enderby4121 I wonder if Roy has watched my video? Ha ha. Roy Clark has brought so much pleasure to millions, how is he not knighted? Hyacinth is a Dame, Granville is a Sir..

Thank you, need to do more in foreign lands🤔

@@ljrees1721 😍

@stevewhitwam1822 cheers Stephen, my public don't seem too bothered, most strange.

@cwnoxid1966 thanks for watching, glad it brought back so many great memories.

Would you go back to Holmfirth ?

@oakashthorn5714 Yes, I had so many happy memories there as a child.

@jandeguelle8910 wow that sounds a fun shop, a surprise for Tea every day, mmm dog food.

Cheers man, for my next one I'll tone the music down, or maybe some dance tracks😂

I agree, the music grates on me. Interesting video.

@user-pb54 good lord the composer will be getting a complex, the next one will be silent-ish😉

@Christopher-sj2sc that's nice to hear, glad you enjoyed it. Foggy knows his stuff. Definitely man, there may be lady droneists but never seen one in the wild.

Exactly my thoughts too 🙂

@Silverdale15 ah well at least you have happy memories of the place. Gosh would be very different in the 80s, now you can stay in Nora's house, it's an Airbnb, I should have put that on the video!

@samnpoppythedog4416 thanks, I've gotta say I hate the 1st piece of music, gloomy in hindsight! And the rest, I don't hate but could have chosen better, maybe I'll try something different next time, sound effects maybe..

@barbarajennion6113 aww wish I'd caught it in the snow, must have looked lovely, defo worth a trip to Jackson Bridge next time, so nice, hilly. I live local and have never met a batty, I guess there must be some! Thanks, glad you enjoyed it😁

@ I will go to Jackson Bridge next time, definitely!

I must find that video of Fred, watta guy. Can't even imagine how much Peat they had to remove to get to the bedrock, lorra trucks.

@stevewhitwam1822 cheers Stephen, had to get the snow, we really don't get it very often these days. Tell your friends to Like and Subscribe😆

@johnvarley3964 thanks mate. Oi I live in Milnsbridge! Ha ha it has it's charms, it's right on the edge of lots of beautiful places, I can see how starting again would improve a lot, the infrastructure of Britain was built for the horse and cart, the railways followed the canal which followed the path of least resistance, bendy, not great for trains, ah well it is what it is and I will stand by, Full of character😁

​@yorkshiredrone I find his commrnt saddening. Our industrial heritage snd architecture may be a bit old fashioned but it is a monument to our heritage of quality textile work. The Canal towpath is a really pleasant oasis from the village, right up to Marsden. The village was virtually dead when i was a kid, as was Holmfirth incidentally. Prior to the Summer Wine tourist revitalisation. Now in Milnsbridge there are shops and cafes. Sadly the Midlsnd Bank has gone. Which was a nice building. The building is still there though. The viaduct hoping passed Harold Wilson's old school and the recreation field still exist. Bland buildings may appeal to car users. But character is irreplaceable. In my opinion.

@davidsmith5523 absolutely David, I'll stand by the fact our infrastructure is ancient and almost not fit for purpose but I wouldn't have it any other way, Trains don't need to go 250MPH(HS2🤪) there's something beautiful about the old derelict Mills and buildings, the roads are rammed and narrow but we muddle by just fine. The Canal is amazing, whether it's through the countryside or through industrial areas, I live here and it's fine, everything you could possibly need nearby, safe, house prices are extremely modest for a nice terrace, I'm on my back doorstep on the terrace at the beginning doing my Hitchcock cameo.

@yorkshiredrone Also aspiration is fine. To improve. But one man's artwork is another man's carbuncle. Uniformity is the death of individuality. I mean old matket vs new market in town. Plus there was recently talk of DEMOLIDHING HUDDERSGIELD RAILWAY STATION. That would be horrendous in my mind.

@davidsmith5523 I think that recent talk is silly rumours, they wouldn't dare touch the station, it'd be like knocking down Victoria Tower. They almost demolished the Piece Hall in the 70s, saved by 1 council vote, gosh.

@@dovestone_ thank-you👍

@malcolmyoung7866 Thanks for watching, and learning! There was plenty of foul language every time a pedestrian got in my way ha ha. When I started making the video I was just going to get some pretty shots of the place, but looking in to the history further I realised it was pretty interesting, how many cups of yorkshire tea? Wish I'd added a few more old pics, ah well always nice to know people can educate their friends on these fascinating topics, I really should do more history stuff, this video is really popular(small scale). Happy trucking, I'll get back to my latest epic, Last of the Summer Wine: Then and Now.

@billsimpson604 glad you enjoyed it, it really is an amazing feat of engineering for the time, the canals largely fell in to a state of disrepair, this one closed in 1944, the restoration started in 1981, opened 2001 fully.

@azy78 cheers man! Hopefully when you do it you'll cut out the boring bits, that canal goes on a bit sometimes, as does Ashton😜

@francessayer8000 Thanks, always nice to hear😁

@TheBlackShop ha ha but political😂

@@skareggae301 cheers mate, always nice to hear😁

@SandwichManStudios so some people do read that bit! Only have 3 batteries so a lot of back and forth, the stuff I do for my art😏

@Titanicus2 thank you! Next, a night time one...

@yorkshiredrone Definatly the town centre is so grand and full of history sometimes you can't see it from the ground.

@Titanicus2 very true and most people walk round without really looking up.

@@yorkshiredrone agreed

@fionadelahunty369 Scammonden Dam? Like it, must open my eyes to see them.

@toucan221 thanks for watching, always nice to hear positive feedback, It does make you look again once you look into the history of the place🤯🫡

@davidsmith5523 Thanks😁 the music editing is somewhat harsh. Aww I missed your puns David, water treat to have em back🫡

@workinprogresssince1974 I think someone on FB Marsden page said it was occupied up to the 70s, someone else said it was sold at auction a few years ago. Give me a lottery win I'll buy it, cool place. There is a pt 2 BTW, scary🤔 ua-cam.com/video/QrhoUzvlNVM/v-deo.htmlsi=4MhxTf3dVUGPqe_b

@azy78 it's an e-bike so I'm a bit of a fraud. I always feel like one anyway, it's still a workout, just not as much. Did different sections, but the trip to Ashton was from home. Milnsbridge, mainly canal but over the standedge for the tunnel, there and back that day I covered 40 miles but did ride round some areas, , mainly A62 on the return journey. I think Ashton is a good distance away from Manchester(6.6 miles) it has Trams though. I'd say doable as it's largely flatish, maybe 4 hours return..

Ahh that's why the video is so smooth lol. Thanks for letting me know and I'm gonna give it a shot next week on a clear day. Your vids are much appreciated as I wanted to know the intricate details of this route. I have already mastered birkby bradley greeenway to calder valley greenway to spen valley greenway and back within a day on a hybrid so I think this is also doable. Thanks again @yorkshiredrone.

@azy78 ha mainly smooth because the camera has got horizon balance switched on, pretty cool camera feature, the damn bike is so heavy it's like riding a truck that helps alot up hills, nice. Good man, glad they're useful, I'll try to get a rough version of the rest of the route knocked up in the next day or so and send a link, happy riding👌

​@azy78 you inspired me to get my lazy ass moving and finish it, took so long the seasons are all mixed up. ua-cam.com/video/jNLgsJEDziw/v-deo.htmlsi=VqqwVAOyzKgse_pq

@@azy78 cheers, always nice to hear😁

Spotted Excel Self Storage at 3:19 does it reconnect form Upper Brow Road?

Glad you enjoyed it, Still not finished part 2! Nearly... a quick look on the map, it's Stoney Battery Road, curious name for a road, I guess your best bet from paddock is to go via Birkhouse Lane. Enjoy😁

​@@azy78I think there is a path from that road, through some trees, I think.

Thanks mate, I was banking on the trees way which branches into 3 parts, one with 70 steps leading to upper brow rd which I don't fancy carrying a bike up or down and the other 2 are narrow wet and muddy. Birkhouse leading to stoney battery is better. Really looking forward to full part 2, as I believe it leads to aston under lyne which is quite phenomenal for a path from Hudds.

@azy78 no worries, yeah I wouldn't fancy that forest😏 on a bike.It does indeed lead to lovely Ashton, cycled it, droned it, I'll edit the bugger one day, spoiler alert, they have steps on the locks over there, pain on a bike. Check out the Standege: Overground, end to end video, bridges the gap from tunnel end to end, real pretty👌

@geetee7154 cheers mate, glad you enjoyed it, damn can only imagine what it was like all those years ago in the snow on the stormy moors, bleak and beautiful.

@MoellerEngineeringCo. Hello America! I can see the appeal, the history, the logistics, the beauty, never again will I look at one and just think it looks pretty.

I live just down the road from the res .

@guyroebuck8510 glad you enjoyed it, lovely place, I don't know when the path round it was complete. Ebike, a fully legal one👍

@mikehench it's going to be a regeneration... 10 year plan, damn I might not live that long! www.kirklees.gov.uk/beta/huddersfield-blueprint/key-projects/vibrant-culture.aspx

More likely houses for.......................?

@SandwichManStudios the photos always look really perfect, I don't think they'll be far off, it's gonna be a big old space including the old multistorey car park..

I think it's still.closed, I believe they said a landslip or something.
