It's Lancashire's biggest paving slab.its not THE biggest....Colne had 1 of the first workers riots and the first policeman to be killed in the riot.Wallace Hartley did not drink and some people are offended that his name was given to the pub which was formerly The Kings Head..The CHurch is one of the oldest in England and has an unmarked Witches grave ..😊 Bonny Colne upon the HILL..

Grew up in Gargrave, was a smaller village then until the 1980s when they built houses in fields where we used to play

Great video there,ive lived in Saltaire for 40 years so i actually take for granted what is on my doorstep,its nice to see a visitors point of view so hope you enjoyed your little wonder round.

5:55 that "Dalesmade" shop is not a big ugly Turkish barbers. Its dreadful

What a brilliant place! I've never heard of it, thankyou😊

2.35 - 'Dad I'm guna drop kick ya' 😂😂

Thank you.

Thanks for all the great up to date information. I haven't been for years so well worth another visit. I fancy a peek in the pottery😊

Here from watching you years watching your Nespresso/coffee videos! Amazing mate, we love Ingleton, we’ve stayed up at the caravan a few times and done the Falls walk too

As a 17/18 year old in the early 80’s I lodged and worked in Shipley. Part of my training included a 2 week secondment to Salts Mill, then a working mill. I worked with the managing director of the mill, a lovely man called Edward Stanners and also on the shop floor, cutting rooms etc. What an amazing place, it employed so many people, from weavers to designers. The cloth was sold all over the world. I went with the Managing Director to London, we visited fashion houses and M&S to gain orders. Sadly cheaper alternatives caused the mill to close.My landlady’s elderly relatives lived in Saltaire in one of the ‘back to back’ houses. Back to back means the houses are terraced, but also attached are an identical row of houses joined at the back so there’s only one outside facing wall. One room upstairs and one room down, adapted to have an inside toilet and curtained off kitchen. I’ve returned to Yorkshire and plan a trip to see the mill as it is today so thank-you for this video.

Lovely video. The falls are always worth a visit. I used to stop at Linton Youth Hostel in the 1970's, opposite The Fountaine Inn, but unfortunately it is now a private house. Thanks for uploading.

I wonder how many new developments by Bovis, WImpey and Persimmon etc., will get World Heritage Site status in the future.

At 8.21 is a shot of a white building - the club house for the cricket club based at Robert's Park. The Park is important as it is where the great right arm off-spinner Jim Laker began is career. Laker is still in the record books as the highest wicket taker in a single test taking 19 of the 20 wickets in an Ashes test at (I think) Old Trafford in the 1950's. Unfortunately for Yorkshire he played most of his career for Surrey and needed special permission at the time to leave Yorkshire and play for them.

Awesome Great video and I like your video my friend Regards

Thankyou. It's still great weather for autumn walks this year😊

Love your videos; you've a lovely calming style which makes your videos very watchable. Thank you.

Thanks guys.

A lovely place that we often visit. A word to the wise; Go there midweek when it's not as busy.

That's a cool video Exploring the North :) thanks for sharing it, we sometimes do castles as part of our UA-cam channel so we will put this one on our to do list, we've subscribed :) look forward to seeing more of your content in the future 😊

I went to Albert Road Primary School, and was christened in the church. Happy memories.

Been to Morecambe many times. Lovely place.

Any filming going on ?

It was Darwen's Moon shot but they could not afford enough dynamite to get it off the ground.

Nice ,🌹 Thank you very much for this video .Sometimes you spooke a little too fast 😘I had often to stop .🤔Greatings from Germany 🙋‍♀️🌺🍂🍁🍊

Thanks, as always, guys.

Porthmadog=Port (or Porth) Maddock, Ffestiniog= Fest In eeyog; Beddgelert=Beth Gelert (you must visit the grave of the brave hound Gelert) , Blaenau Ffestiniog= Blye Nye,(or Blyna)Festiniog as before; Criccieth=Crickuth; Abersoch=Abersock; Black Rock Sands=Morfa Bychan=Morva Buckan. Hope this helps-I'm English but if anybody Welsh is reading this I'm quite happy to be corrected.

My mum was born in Saltaire in 1921. My grandad was a wool sorter in the mill. She went to Albert Road school. As she got older she went to dances at Victoria Hall with my dad. We used to spend hours in Roberts Park. She lived to be ninety three, and was still living in Saltaire.

Cistercian, normally pronounced "SIS STIR SHUN" but should be "SIS STIR SEE AN" .....think "politician". A private road may be on a public right of way. A private road is simply one that the residents have to maintain (not adopted by the local authority as a public road). Residents often put up intimidatory signs to try to discourage the hoi polloi. They rarely have any legal meaning. Ordinance Survey will usually show "rights of way" for pedestrians and bridleways but they are not as good about it as they used to be. Local authorities maintain definitive maps. I could claim to be the Shah of Iran. I can claim it as much as I like but it just ain't so. Same with intimidatory signs. Such a road MAY be actually private (as someone's private driveway) but rarely so. Again, nice little video. Thanks for pronouncing "Whalley" I've never been there or met anyone from there and always thought that it was "WAY LEE".

A very good chippy there, or at least there was a couple of years ago when my wife and I last visited.

Thanks guys.

Who’s Betsy Coed? Nah just joking. Just do what that other comment says and try to really separate the y and make it stand out.

I cycle regularly there from Saltaire then up over the top to Malham. It's a lovely place but never heard it called vibrant in my life! Good for a sunny afternoon so popular with hikers but l wouldn't want to live there, too small.

Lovely video. Really enjoyed it. Thank you

Love Morecambe, was just there last week.

Thanks. A thoroughly delightful and well made video. Enjoyed our stroll!

The Standedge Tunnel (3.5 mile long?) was opened up earlier this year for canoeists, so the Foulridge tunnel has been demoted now. I think the ducklings were hoping that you had some food 😂

Thanks 👍. Some of those streets are lethal in winter when there is ice 😱. I'm going to the Pendle Hippodrome in a couple of days, and it will be interesting to see what it's like now after the recent refurbishment

The band on the Titanic numbered only eight including Wallace himself. They played at teatime and after supper FOR THE FIRST CLASS PASSENGERS ONLY. They rarely played as a single band but took turns playing as a trio or a quintet. Whilst some of them may have hoped against hope, I suspect that the majority of them resigned themselves to meet their maker somewhat earlier than they had suspected only hours before, and, as musicians, in the circumstances, what else would YOU have done ? It has certainly earned them a place in British and American history. It is a fine story, stiff upper lip and all that, but, 90% of those who died that night went to their deaths without ever hearing a single note from the band. After all, only the first class passengers had paid for the band in their tickets and in those class-conscious days, why SHOULD those who had paid less be permitted to listen to them ? Even in those circumstances, propriety must be maintained. This was a tragedy that need not have happened. The ship had been well built by the shipwrights of Harland and Wolff but the design was flawed. If you are to claim that a ship is unsinkable then the design should ensure that that is so. Although what happened was the heighth of improbability, it DID happen and to cut corners in the design in that it had bulkheads only going so far up amounted to, in my view, CRIMINAL IRRESPONSIBILITY. To make it unsinkable, it was necessary for the ships to have water-tight compartments of sufficient volume to keep at least part of the superstructure above water as a refuge for all on board regardless of catastrophic damage to the hull. In less than 28 months, the First World War was to begin.The threat from King Edward's spiteful and bombastic nephew, Kaiser Willy was well understood when plans for the Titanic were first being drawn up, and if they weren't understood then, they were clearly understood in the early years of George's reign and in time for modifications to be made during construction. Lack of sufficient lifeboats might not have been illegal at the time but was irresponsible almost beyond belief. I say, you either have lifeboats for everyone, or, save the money and have no lifeboats at all. What gross moral turpitude lead the designers to think that saving the lives of SOME of the passengers, would, in the event of a disaster, enable the owners to spin the news to thanking God for those who would be saved ..... and hoping that no-one would notice that the majority of passengers had drowned ? This dereliction was worse in that all three of the Olympic Class ships (Olympic, Britannic, and Titanic) and Cunard's Lusitania and Mauritania were all built in cooperation with the Admiralty so that, in the event of War, the ships would be turned over to the Navy and be battle ready in double-quick time. The design of the Lusitania was so sea-worthy that when attacked in 1915, she went down in 48 minutes taking 1,197 souls with her. Nice videos. Nice little gems in all of them.

Thank you guys.

Have a tootle up Wesenden Head mate. Not spectacular perhaps but it definitely has its drama and history

Skipton is always a great place to visit. A great base for anyone who wants to explore around the Yorkshire Dales.

👍

I like Saltaire, though I've not been for about 10 years. When the weather is fine, it's a lovely walk from Saltaire to Shipley Glen, and even though the funicular tramway is not very long, it's an interesting ride up......we always walked back down. Titus Salt Jnr, in 1869, started building a mansion called Milner Field, which overlooked the mill. No expense was spared, and from what I've read in the book, even Royalty were visitors at the mansion. Sadly, the mansion became a white elephant, and by 1955, the mansion was a derelict building with no roof. The mansion was later demolished. Ferniehurst, which was built by his brother Edward Salt, suffered the same fate, along with many other magnificent mansions in England. At least Salts Mill, and the lovely buildings in Saltaire still stand.

It's a lovely walk walking all around, up to the strid and over the other side of the river. I remember first going there 65 years ago (I was only 5 and we got warned to never try jumping across the strid), and have been many times since. Has become more commercialised over the years.

I like the ringing tree the best, because of the sounds that it produces. Yeah, it's a shame that vandals decide to ruin things that have been erected for others to enjoy 😢

Found your channel (now subscribed) whilst searching for local places that I can access on my mobility scooter. To say that I only live a couple of miles away, I've never actually been in Ball Grove. Good capture of the deer and the robin 👍

Great record shop opposite the harbour on the main road. 👍🏼

Brought back good memories, love the area

Llagollen is well worth a visit also if your in the area.

Will love to visit. Is it a friendly town for blacks though 😊
