I love getting aerial video footage for this channel, but also just for fun. So, I collect a lot of nice footage that I don't have an immediate use for. Most of it is otherwise good material. Some of it gets used many months and sometimes years later.
But I thought I would combine business with fun and make a video featuring some of that footage. So, here it is, 4 ½ minutes of aerial footage with just a little music! Some of the footage here is from Devonshire, where we like to go on holiday, and some is from Sussex.
I hope you like it!
The locations in the video include: Peacehaven cliffs and Winchelsea in East Sussex; Ferring Beach and the River Adur in West Sussex; Teignmouth in Devon; Haytor Rocks, Hound Tor, Combestone Tor, the village of Widecombe-in-the-Moor, and Venford Reservoir in Dartmoor in Devonshire.

Discovering Ancient Winchelsea
Переглядів 630Місяць тому
I’ve wanted to dig into East Sussex’s Winchelsea and its amazing history for a few years. Finally, we dropped in for a couple of days and explored a bit! The weather was hot, and we were trying to avoid heat exhaustion! And here I thought that I, a born Southern Californian, was all right in the heat! Or maybe it’s me getting old? Winchelsea has the distinction of being not where it was origina...
Dr Celsius: His Role in my Downfall
Переглядів 1572 місяці тому
When I first came to the UK in 1969, ya’ll used the same measuring system I had grown up with. Well, mostly. But when I came back in 2017 suddenly things were different. The country had gone metric! Well, mostly. I was familiar with metric for various reasons, but my grasp of the Celsius temperature system was very tenuous. Intellectually, I was on firm ground. But if someone told me it was 23 ...
Burpham and its Fort
Переглядів 7485 місяців тому
We visit the village of Burpham in West Sussex! Where is Burpham? If you happen to be visiting the town of Arundel, with its impressive castle and cathedral, you might find yourself on the castle’s east side on the road that leads to South Stoke, a place I’ve covered in a previous video. Looking northeastwards, you might notice in the distance a rather interesting building. You know where you a...
Bramber Castle Book is Now Available!

Back in July of 2022, I uploaded my third and final video about Bramber Castle in West Sussex. That video was about 25 minutes long, but it could have been a lot longer. Research for the video gave me so much material that using all of it would have produced a video nearly an hour in length. I then cut that version down and was still sitting at 40 minutes long! I said at the time that I could w...

I am a Yank in Sussex! But this time I am in Cornwall (again)! So, this is another video involving our trip to Devon, Cornwall, and Somerset in October 2023! In this video we travel from Truro to Nancegollan, and use it as a base to explore places in southwesternmost Cornwall. Here I tell about our exploration base, the village of Nancegollan, and our visit to Porthleven, a fishing and tourist ...

In this video we travel into Cornwall to Truro, and use it as a base to explore Looe and St. Mawes, and then have a look inside Truro’s amazing cathedral.

The Town of Rye
Переглядів 13 тис.9 місяців тому
The town of Rye in East Sussex is about as far east as you can go and still be in Sussex. It has a castle, some Napoleonic era fortifications, really ancient shops and inns, and plenty of cobbled streets. Oh, and it also has smugglers’ inns, the Mermaid, and the Olde Bell - which are rumored to have a secret tunnel connecting them! Sorry, I was unable to verify this. I had been hoping to get ba...
The Stokes of West Sussex
Переглядів 7959 місяців тому
In the Arundel valley lie North and South Stoke, two tiny ancient villages respectively on the east and west sides of the River Arun. They are merely a half mile apart as the crow flies, but if you’re not a crow there is a footpath. However, if you wish to drive from one to the other you have to drive a circuitous route that passes through the town of Arundel. Both North and South Stoke are lov...
East Quantoxhead Beach

We spent nearly three weeks holidaying in Devon, Cornwall, and Someret in October. This video describes a visit to East Quantoxhead beach in Somerset. My British Bride (aka my wife) chose this location on the Bristol Channel because she knows I love geology - and there is a lot of great geology here!

Highdown Hill

Highdown Hill is a chalk hill located within the South Downs National Park, not far from the town of Worthing. Its human heritage stretches back into antiquity, and was first used as an enclosure by the Bronze Age people who lived in the area around 1000 BC. Later the enclosure was built out as a hill fort around 800 BC during the Iron Age. Later came the Romans, and then the Saxons. And now co...
Welcome to Upper Beeding

This video covers the West Sussex village of Upper Beeding. This village is one of the few that lies directly on the River Adur. Its heritage stretches back to Saxon times, if not before. It is located at the northern end of the River Adur gap in the South Downs, four miles (6.4 km) north of Shoreham-by-Sea and has a land area of 1,877 hectares (4,640 acres). The site is a bridging point over t...
Ashurst Village & The Adur
Переглядів 9 тис.Рік тому
On 25 May, during the Monday of the Spring bank holiday, I visited the little village of Ashurst. It was the holiday, but though I was there mainly to try to get some footage of the River Adur, I wandered around a bit in order to see this little corner of Sussex. The door of the village church was open, and I took a brief tour of the grounds before making my hike to the river’s bank. It wasn’t ...
A Visit to Ashurst

While researching and videoing for a future Yank in Sussex video, I visited the West Sussex village of Ashurst. This small village is very quaint and is situated in a beautiful area. I thought I would take some of the photos and videos and throw this quick video together.

A Mist Over the Adur Valley
Переглядів 128Рік тому
I thought the drone footage here is particular scenic, and wanted to create a short video showing it. The footage was captured on 13 January 2022, around noon. The morning mist persisted despite an otherwise clear sky and provided an excellent view for my little DJI Mini 2.
