I work in film production the Wayne manor in the films is Woolaston Hall in Nottinghamshire Google it

Fantastic video pal , absolutely loved the ski village back in the day was up there all the time , very sad to see it now as it had so much potential sad loss bit like the pinegrove country club , keep up the great work 👊

That road to the roundabout was originally going to be the exit from Gullivers, that’s why the services are there.

Great video, it’s just a shame you’re a Blade #WAWAW

Looks like Scarsdale Hall

Another great video, mate. I am really enjoying your wandering around these places. You give enough interesting information to make me go off do some of my own research about the places you've visited. I had never heard of this place. I grew up 'down south' and your part of the UK is probably the area I know least about so these are good. Keep up the great production values and stay curious.

Really enjoyed your video,your enthusiasm really came through and I found your delivery was easy on the ear and the right balance of facts and opinion , look forward to watching more of your videos 👍

Manhole inspection cover still intact @ 9:40, the main drain system is probably all conected to a degree.

interesting and entertaining, easy to listen to - the algorithm has got me here, and subbing will keep me.....

Fantastic informative viewing. What a shame a beautiful building like this has come to this xx

4:11 - I didn't know Alex Salmond built Scarsdale Hall 😅

I'm glad you took my recommendation to visit :) Sutton Scarsdale Hall is a special and beautiful place, with so much history. I used enjoy playing in the ruins and adjacent fields with my brother as a kid as we lived nearby.

Welcome back sir 🙏 looking forward to this.

The small arched doorway that is bricked up is possibly entrance to a coal cellar in this case for railway n trains as its near the railway bridge

Havent seen those concrete lamposts for years...cool tour and history, off to watch the rest of series now, thx

Next to the gullivers park entrance on the walewood end, theres an old wall and fencing that looks old , was that the mine drive in entrance ?

but we are desperate for housing, and we are forced to build on farm land so we will never be able to feed ourselves!

Shithole anyway Sheffield all wants burrying

Nice little video I just came across. I’m originally from Doncaster, if you know Donny well enough, I’m from Thorne. I did enjoy listening to a Yorkshire accent again. I took early retirement last year and moved to the Philippines last year, so it’s good to hear someone who talks proper 😉 I’ll check out some of your other videos. Thanks for posting.

nice video, it a shame they pulled down whole communities only to leave the land empty. when i walk round Trafford general hospital, it hits me my grandad was born there over 123 years ago. I remember Eddie the eagle being on tv using the ski village in 90s

I imagine someone has already told you this, but the old doorway bricked up near the beginning of the building was a foot access to Neepsend locomotive shed. I have seen an icon on old maps where that small bricked up arch is - it's three lines coming together as an arrow - but I don't know what that icon means.

Great film. Crazy that the City demolished this community in its entirety…..I’m thinking they had plans to build an estate on it but this was never realised. Sad to see, but very fascinating.

I loved the look of the cobbled streets of the UK. Now our roads are awful, heavy traffic is the major cause. Everywhere you look there are potholes, lumps and bumps, when they tarmac the roads they never do it right, it's rushed and shabbily done. Bring back the cobbles!!

If only we could go back in time permanently. Yeh wouldn't have been Internet and things we have of today in 2024, but kids weren't cheeky brats on street corners, no graffiti, could leave your doors open, safe to walk out without fear of being stabbed or mugged, people were friendly. Absolutely dislike change.

Wow thank you what a great vidio many many fond memories of watching my team play at the rec as we called it … the recreation ground , on saltergate … loved the photo you took when you snook into the wonderful old stadium go walking around there often reminicing iam 67 now but I fist stood on the kop on the opening day of the 69/70 as a wide eyed 13 year old taking it all in on that baking hot August day … the old 3rd division chesterfield 2-3 Aston Villa …. What a game villa supporters took over the kop end that day and there’s me stood there with my 6ft blue an white scarf on surrounded by thousands of claret n blue clad villa skinheads but they had a laugh with me it always sticks with me a villa fan said to me this ground is like a postage stamp compared to villa park 😂 guess he was right 😂 … had some wonderful times at the old ground … RIP saltergate … cheers mate great vidio 👍

Nice one shagr. Random appearance on my feed. Lots of decay in the steel city. How bout a vid on shef airport ??

Nice to see somebody interested! Worksop is a dump! Tigers moved to Sandy Lane. Site on Central Avenue is Cricket ground and caravan site. Flooding is regular! Bassetlaw are a pain in the neck, killing off what was a good market town! Empty shops.

I see this in 2024 it’s still here has changed it burned down. There’s another one it’s black Admiral two black admirals.

The small entrance looks like a culvert the bigger entrance of the Railway bridge might be the Station Entrance. I think there is plans to redevelop back into a Ski Village.

This place needs funding for a nature reserve. Restore them old cobbles look amazing afterwards

Great film, just wondering if small arch was a coal Shute?

Don’t look abandoned to me there’s cars and people living there 😅

We used to ride motorbikes at parkwood in the early nineties, i remember driving through the tunnel and up the steep hill to the bottom of the ski village, had no idea it was once a suburban area

It might be worth getting the City Ground done at some point mate with all the talks about Forest moving ground

This is crazy i walk past things like this all the time, great video 👍

Brilliant video. Fascinating information, history & presentation. Although no connection to the area I find this very sad and quite horrifying that a whole community was destroyed in such a way. The buildings and area looked beautiful to me!

Bore not Bower!

Wowzer, I learned to ski there, paid for a course of lessons every Sunday afternoon, it was a fabulous place back in the day. I couldn’t believe how easier it is to ski on snow than on the dry slopes! If you can ski on a dry slope you can ski on anything! lol

Great

The community’s were powerful then,the government didn’t like it,so they played the slum clearance card and split the community,putting the people in tall flats,where no one knew each other .same with the local pubs ,that’s where everyone had their opinions on government actions

When I was about 20 years old, so1974, I worked for a steeplejack company in Sheffield . They had their depot on a street at the top of West Street, Company was W.E. Harrison. We did some work at Brookhouse Colliery on the site of the coking plant, which was a large open structure with several floors. We did all the painting of the structure. I don't remember a great deal of the actual colliery but it stirred up a few memories of my time working as a contractor, industrial painting. Great video, thanks for sharing this.

Why is this site barred to vehicular access? Why really was the village destroyed? I don’t buy the reason given. Politicians don’t care a flying ***k about their constituents.

Fascinating ! I like collecting maps and street plans. Sometimes when a 'new' street map comes out, just a few new changes are published, and things that have gone on the ground may still be on the map.

Crazy how councils come in close hole housing estates an demolish totally fuk stuff up. there's not enough houses going..if all them was still up revitalised there would of bin a few thousand houses 🙄

Subscribed, really interesting video. When did the last occupants leave? Amazing how nature reclaims but sad in a way considering how much housing is needed now, and green fields are disappearing under concrete. Sheffield City Council finished off the Luftwaffe's job then with the Church. Really interesting. That low blocked up arch would suggest there is a basement maybe?

this is also where the well known ski village once stood too

Thank you for sharing working class history. Another fine example of how the working class are constantly being moved on. Just a bleak view of what memories (and money) was lost. All for progress. There seems to be a long history of workingclass communties being destroyed. Its odd to think that its not covered in lego houses

Nostalgia's not what it used to be

Went to cas in the 90’s when my team Carlisle ( now sadly no more) played a cup game there… my favourite Rugby ground
