    The base of these walls are really thick. I loved the explanation as to why this wasn't located on a nearby hill. A great series. Thanks for sharing I really enjoyed it.

    What a fabulous castle. You took some great shots, to give us a good feeling of the size of the place.
    And as always, thanks so much for all the back ground info - I appreciate it a lot.

    A really nice castle in a great setting too. I used to watch and be terrified at Dr Who when I was a kid but never watched it for about 40 years. Amazing drone footage mind! Cheers Alan

    Hello Alessa and Brett. What a lovely Castle ruins. Great history , I enjoyed hearing how the Castle was used in Dr Who, I didn’t realise. The keep house would have been a lovely part of the castle. Brilliant drone footage and your narration was lovely. Great video, take care xx Julie and Tony xx

    Interesting castle, you can see the importance - close to the English Border, not far from the river and a safe haven if a raiding party tries their luck. Great video and superbly narrated , Alessa. Looks great from above too.

    Hi Alessa,
    Another history to praise your research.
    I am glad Dr. Who's feature made some influence for this ruin to be acknowledged.
    I have not seen them. I must watch it.
    It seems the property and castle are rather cozy and charming
    Chatting with you is what I miss the most
    So sorry I could not make it.
    Always, excellent work and you nailed it.

    Hi both, another stunning castle. We need to get down to south wales! We've been wide this year, both times for funerals!! The tower of this one reminds me of flint! Considering its age, it's in pretty good nick this one. Great video guys and of course amazing drone work! Cheers 🍻

    Wonderful castle tour, Alessa and Brett! Loved hearing about it's history and the views from both below and above. It is unusual to see it built down low. I'm happy it didn't face as many challenges as many castles did. Even Watto and I could attack downhill! 🤣🤣

    • @PinnedonPlaces
      @PinnedonPlaces  3 місяці тому

    Great video Alessa & Brett, so good to hear all about the history of Grosmont Castle. It looked almost like it was built to fit next to that river & in between the river & road. But the road was maybe not there then? Or maybe it was 🤷🏼‍♀️

    Couldn't imagine getting a castle as a gift let alone 3 castles! OMG it has to be so hard for these people to build the castle in the first place and these guys just flatten it and start over 😳They didn't have wrecking balls back then, what did that project look like. Interesting about on the walls and location. Watergate was something completely different here in the states 😁

    Hallo, eine sehr interessante Burgruine. Die ist ja richtig groß. Die 4K Qualität gefällt mir auch gut. Die Kameraführung würde ich mir besser wünschen. In meinem letztem Video habe ich gezeigt und auch erklärt (Untertitel auch in Englisch verfügbar) wie man mit der Kamera geht, ohne das ein Wippen entsteht. Also, als wenn die Kamera auf Schienen unterwegs wäre. Aber Du hast viel gezeigt und auch viele Informationen gegeben. Die habe ich per Untertitel lesen können. Der Daumen hoch Nr. 108 ist von mir. Gruß Rainer
    Hello, a very interesting castle ruin. It's really big. I also like the 4K quality. I would like to see better camera work. In my last video I showed and also explained (subtitles also available in English) how to walk with the camera without rocking. In other words, as if the camera were on rails. But you showed a lot and also gave a lot of information. I was able to read them via subtitles. The thumbs up no. 108 is from me. Greetings Rainer
