Thank you for another great video ! Another story of Pirates being hung at execution dock was Hastings' (East Sussex) Ruxley crew or 'chopbacks'. They boarded a Dutch Ship The Three Sisters of Beachy head and used an axe to to cut the Captain (Peter Bootes) down his spine. The Ruxley Crew or the 'Chopbacks were hung at execution dock in 1769 (p304, Tales from the Gibbet Post, Part 2 Daniel Codd, 2017).
Great tour I love Wapping but I think you'll find that Turners Old Star is where the fight scene from Legend was filmed
Thanks for the info, Diane :)
Hello from Kentucky! It is real treat to see a new posting of a walking tour with Sinead. Very informative and entertaining. Thank you.
Glad you liked this one, Thomas!
Judge Jeffreys hung two of my ancestors called Durston after the battle of Sedgemoor . They were offices fighting for Monmouth. Great video thanks.
Hanged.
Ditto Michael..
I have lived in the region all my life as family have done ..
I think I have inherited a tendency to be a bit of a rebel lol.
Beautiful place to live. All the best to you !
@@michaelwhite8031 All the best to you too dude.
Thank you Sinead!
Glad that you enjoyed the video, Sammi. If you haven't done so already, you can hopefully check out our back catalogue of virtual London tours ua-cam.com/users/FreeToursbyFootLondonvideos. There is more where this came from.
The word wharf comes from the Old English hwearf,[7] cognate to the Old Dutch word werf, which both evolved to mean "yard", an outdoor place where work is done, like a shipyard
Nice job Martin
Looks like I have a new researcher x
@@leary210275 it’s one of those words we take for granted. So when you said about it. Had me curious and I had to know it’s meaning 😂 x
but it does also mean - A pier where ships or boats are tied up and loaded or unloaded.
A shore or riverbank.
A platform of timber, stone, or other material built on a support at the margin of a harbor or a navigable stream, in order that vessels may be moored alongside, as for loading or unloading, or while at rest.
I am Afrikaans which is a language derived from dutch and "werf" makes sense to me. In Afrikaans "werf" also means yard.
Great walk Sinead! We did this walk in May for a Wapping/Limehouse Pub crawl. Town or Ramsgate, Captain Kidd, Prospect of Whitby then out to The Grapes. Love that area, so nice and quiet and full of history and great views of the Thames. Oh and the beer's not bad either.
Glad you liked this one, Kevin!
I so enjoy Sinead's tours, terrific girl.
Some grisly details there Sinead! Great video. I love those Riverside Taverns.
Stay tuned for the round two!
My favorite city beautiful London 💕🌜☘️

Wow,!! What an incredible tour. Thank you Sinead. I Loved it.

I visited Wapping last May and will visit again in only 10 days! Sinead, you do a good job with the walking videos, love them. Thank you. Greetings from Germany!
Plenty more to come, Pirjo :)
Wow! My favourite tour guide is back.
I'm cracking a Guiness and settling down here in Dubai.
Hi sweets
Hope you enjoyed have a Guinness for me
@@leary210275 loved it as per usual.
Managed to buy a case of genuine Dublin Draught Guinness.
So was saving for a special occasion and this was most certainly that.
Fantastic as per usual.
Brilliant as always

Thanks for your support, Kathryn!
Wow awesome tour
Wonderfully done! Thank you 😊 💓
Glad you liked this one, Suzanne!
I was brought up just over the other side in Rotherhithe, and all of that area and Wapping were run down. It's all so different now and trendy, I saw the start of the building of Canary Wharf in the 1980's.
Thanks for sharing with us!
One more jaw dropping tour, it's awesome ❤️ it makes me watch more and more 👍🏻 keep it up God bless 🙏🏻
Glad you liked this one, Shounak!

Glad you liked this one, Aleisha!
Great to see and hear you again
My heart is so broken from the death of my Queen.Long live the King
This is a great video of Wapping..

Sinead you’re so informative and lovely. I listen avidly but your lilt sends me to calm sleep. Smashing lady so you are x
Deepest condolences to a people "who though separated by an ocean, and under different governments, have the same language, similar religion, and kindred blood." ❤️❤️❤️. Our hearts are with you from America. ❤️❤️❤️. She always had our deepest respect.
Great as usual tnu
Sinead is so good at relating gory execution tales. Her Jack the Ripper tour is to die for. All kidding aside, love your video tours. Just spent 3 months in the UK, mostly staying in London. Beautiful city. Love the sites. Can't wait to go back. No tours of the Gerkin, the Walkie Talkie, the Shard, the "inside-out building", aka Lloyd's of London, or any of London's other stunning unusually designed buildings?
You'll find them on the channel, Doug. The Walkie Talkie is here: ua-cam.com/video/FdAGgTIUtpU/v-deo.html
Nice walk today I enjoyed it. Can't wait to see more soon. What is the weather like in England.? In Canada we have fall weather. Your history videos are always enjoyable and relaxing have a great day greetings from Canada 😀
Thanks Sinead, My favourite London pub. I was interested to see upstairs because whenever I have been there , upstairs has been closed for private parties. Cheers!
Glad we could show you something new! :)
Thanks for an interesting video about the Wapping area. I must admit that though I was born in London but now live in Essex. some years ago I did parcel courier work which used to pass East London, though I never went to the areas you show in Wapping. .
Fairly new to the area myself
But love it there
Thanks for watching
Sinead
👍👍Enjoy your day
Always like your tour videos fantastic
I noticed tho that the pub in this video mentions the Legend movie with Tom Hardy
The pub used for the pub fight scene was filmed in Turner's old Star Wapping hope this information helps
Thanks for the tip, Kevin!
Great video thank you. Your hair is gorgeous and your lipstick really suits you!
Glad that you enjoyed the video. If you haven't done so already, you can hopefully check out our back catalogue of virtual London tours ua-cam.com/users/FreeToursbyFootLondonvideos. There is more where this came from.

Another excellent video, it was nice to chat with you whilst you waited for the tide to go out...lol Myself and my mate that is
Glad you enjoyed it, Steve!
Some things you got wrong, and some things you got right.
That pub you went into, the Town of Ramsgate, there was also a hanging post in their beer garden with the noose still tied to it's poat
For example, the Turks Head wast where they filmed the Legend, it was further up the road past the Sports Centre and you follow it around to the right; opposite the youth club on the right there is the Turners Pub where it was filmed.
I don't know if you mentioned this in other videos, but the metal bollards along Wapping High Street were old cannons.
I was brought up in Wapping on Pruson Street
Thanks for the extra info!
I did a sponsored run around this area in 1982, so much more pleasing to the eyes then. In fact, even the blood soaked Victualing Yards of Sammy the P's time would be better than what is there now.
It's incredible how much London is constantly changing!
I am now watching your video that is playing.❤
We hope you enjoy them!
really cool vid :-)
Glad you liked this one, Paul!
That was very good…
Love this area Chuck
Oh my, I would never make it to the end of the tour as I would have to enjoy at least one pint at each pub, lol.
Can you have a tour on Hercule Pirot areas - apartment they used for outside views
Ha ha! Thought ‘Pom’ meant ‘Prisoner of Mother England’. Hi from New Zealand 🇳🇿
The word wharf comes from the Old English hwearf, cognate to the Old Dutch word werf, which both evolved to mean "yard", an outdoor place where work is done, like a shipyard (Dutch: scheepswerf) or a lumberyard (Dutch: houtwerf).
Thank you for this
Sinead
Love your tours this is very interesting as I’m Australian and to see where they left from never to return
Amazing history in the area Jennifer
Thanks for watching
Sinead
Can you please tell me where you got your information about Thomas Blood and the Wapping old stairs. Thanks.
'Don't leave me.' As if. ;)
I'm just copying and pasting here since I had no idea of the origin, but "wharf" is not an acronym:
_The word wharf comes from the Old English hwearf, cognate to the Old Dutch word werf, which both evolved to mean "yard", an outdoor place where work is done, like a shipyard (Dutch: scheepswerf) or a lumberyard (Dutch: houtwerf)_

@@FreeToursbyFootLondon 👍You asked in the video if anyone knew, and I became curious myself. I wouldn't normally chime in like that, although I am a font of useless knowledge I fill every day. 😉
Just heard the news Sinead Praying for the Queen hoping the UK is well!! Much love to the UK!!
🏴☠️
Night time ride on the London Eye
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🇵🇰👌
😘
Tour of more WWII sights
Great idea Bonnie
Sinead
We can add this to the growing list :)
The automatic captions are ok, the last video , V&A the captions seem to be a bit better.
They can definitely be hit and miss, Jim.
Hello 👋
👋👋👋
Sinead
Just heard about the passing of the Queen. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your country.
I wonder if this is where the universal tradition of children in parochial schools wearing blue or blue plaid uniforms comes from(?)
My home town had both a "Bluecoat" and a "Greycoat" school. Blue is the colour of charity. The schools had links to both royalty, and the clergy, but were not directly controlled by the CoE. Greys on the other hand were directly managed by the church, the first being founded in the parish of St. Margarets (the little church built up against the side wall of Westminster Abbey).
Middle class suburbs of London
More parks showing fall foilage
Love Fall foliage
Thanks Bonnie
Sinead
All my Thoughts, Prayers and Love go out to Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth and all of The Royal Family. God Bless her, The Royal Family and each and every person in the UK.
See you’ve got some local immigration on hand 😳😳😳
Sinead, I have no words about what's going on. Queen Elizabeth was queen before I was born, for me she has always been the face of the UK. I will have to watch this video later; I also owe you a coffee for the last vid. Stay strong.....
Hey Sinead IDK who told you that WHARF meant something else but it does stand for warehouse at river front. Not only will it tell you that on Google,but I also asked 4 different people that I know who are all on active duty in the United States Navy and they all said the same thing. So Sinead my dear YOU were in fact correct
Wharf means warehouse at river front.
Mourning the Queen I saw her when she visited Chicago In 1959. John in Chicago
To all those who are under the British crown, God be with you at the loss of your Sovereign. May you find comfort in the days to come. With love from the USA...
God bless the Queen. Long live the King.
Your right, it is WHARF. WareHouses At River Front.
Oh my Sinead has it been 2 yrs already since your wonderful videos started. Cant wait to see Christmas this year.
Thanks for sticking with us, Bre!
