My Walk Around Ipswich, Suffolk, UK: A Town Once Ruled by the Vikings [4K]
Ipswich Escapade - It was once ruled by Viking you know | UK Exploration Extravaganza
Prepare to traverse Ipswich in spectacular 4K, a town that’s seen more historical action than a Renaissance fair. Get ready to be charmed by streets crammed with Tudor buildings that have somehow dodged the wrecking ball.
👣 What You’ll See in This Video:
• Dodging tourists while we navigate the 'architecturally significant' lanes of Ipswich's old town.

• Intrusive peeks into a dozen medieval churches - because what’s a day out without a bit of Gothic gloom?

    Hope you enjoyed my jaunt through Ipswich, a place that’s actually way nicer than you might think-really, it's not just me being nice! This hidden gem had more surprises than a M. Night Shyamalan film. From the scenic waterfront to the stoic, ancient churches. What did you find most surprising? The unexpectedly picturesque views, the architectural defiance of those old churches, or just the sheer fact that Ipswich isn't just another dot on the map? Let me know in the comments! 😊

    Hope you enjoyed my little jaunt around Colchester, where history isn't just old, it's ancient! From the imposing Colchester Castle (because who doesn’t love a good fortress?), to the ridiculously tall Water Tower (that's like a Steampunk dream), and ending up amidst the eerie calm of an old ruined priory-because who doesn’t love some picturesque decay? Which piece of the past caught your eye? Let me know in the comments! Don’t forget to like, share, and subscribe. 😊

    About the structure in the garden of the house in Coppice Hill. On Bradford on Avon museum website it says “The Wesleyan Methodist Chapel was built in 1812 to replace the smaller chapel at the back of the former Maiden Head Inn in Market Street, where John and Charles Wesley had preached. The land had been a rackground, where newly made woollen cloths were stretched on tenterhooks to dry, shape and bleach in the sun. The congregation had shrunken by the middle of the 20th century and the building was threatened with demolition. The roof was removed, but the walls still stand are a listed building. They now form the frame for a swimming pool. The building on the right was the chapel’s Sunday School; it has been converted into a house.”

      Good sleuthing, thanks a lot for letting me know! Very fancy having the outer walls of an old Georgian chapel surrounding your swimming pool. Then again the entire town was quite fancy. I'll add that to information to the video once I get round to it. 😊

    Best way to enjoy Henley is on the water - hire a dayboat from Hobbs during the week (cheaper). Places for walkers to rest as follows : coffee : H+H*, Gails, Chocolate theatre cafe*, Pavillion, Starbucks/Nero/Costa food : Wetherspoons, Francescos, Cinema bistro , Hotel du Vin* (recommended *) St. Trinians (2007) was filmed using Park Place grounds and Chitty chitty bang bang was filmed near Henley - Ian Fleming's father having been MP for Henley. George Orwell grew up in Lower Shiplake - nearby village. Clooney filmed the boys in the boat 2yrs ago in Henley. The festival continues tonight and tomorrow night with good music and fireworks at 10pm ish. The weather looks ok for a walk down by the river but bring a fleece.

      Thanks for the great tips for Henley-on-Thames! Hiring a dayboat from Hobbs sounds like a perfect way to spend the day. I'd definitely check out some of the recommended coffee spots and eateries you recommend, next time I'm there. Believe it or not, I haven't seen either St. Trinian's or Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, maybe I'll give them a watch soon and look out for for any familiar Henley sights. I'd definitely bring a fleece if I was you, this summer has been such a let down!

    Hope you enjoyed my stroll through Brilliant Bradford-on-Avon! Who knew a market town could have so much history and charm? From the River Avon to the Saxon Church, there’s always something to see, even if it's just a secret passage you can't actually go through. Which spot caught your eye? The old mills, the quirky Dandy Lion pub, or maybe just trying to avoid getting hit by a car on those narrow streets? Let me know in the comments! Don't forget to like, share, and subscribe. 😊

    Hello, and quite impressive, considering this is your first walking video - also impressive that you did not mention Harry Potter once !!!!!!!!! :) I arrived in Oxford as an undergrad in 1967 - and didn`t leave again for just under forty years - and as a full professor, so I can be a bit touchy about how my old town is presented - but, you managed pretty well, I thought :) Oh yes, I watched this whilst enjoying a nice cup of Earl Grey tea - nothing else would seem quite right !!!!!!!

    • @VictoriasWalks
      @VictoriasWalks 2 місяці тому

      Hello there! I’m absolutely thrilled to hear that my stroll through Oxford has passed the rigorous test of a professor-and long-time resident, no less! I promise to continue leaving Harry Potter in the fantasy realm where he belongs. You keep drinking the tea, and I’ll keep making the videos. ☕ Cheers!

      @@VictoriasWalks You are very, very welcome !! In truth, you did make one or two small errors, and perhaps could have been somewhat more expansive with descriptive content - but it would be churlish of me to mention this, so I won`t :) Another thought occurred to me - as you clearly enjoyed the walk around the beautiful Botanic Gardens. Many of the colleges participate in a well received ' open day ' where the normal entry fee is waived. I suspect you would enjoy the fabulous college gardens, that are a source of pride, and are highly competitive amongst the garden staff to be recognized, annually as the best garden. Once again, well done - perhaps have a stroll along Merton Street when you are next in Oxford, it`s generally quiet, peaceful and quite attractive - jolly good :)
