I would’ve wanted to continue the same brick on the front to the extension, too. I thought the glass panel the conservation officer wanted would’ve been an eyesore.
Such lovely corn fields... We can't be experts on everything. ;-) Love these shows.
Haha I'm glad someone else noticed that!
In the UK all cereal fields are called corn fields. Wheat, barley or oats are all corn. Maize is not commonly grown...not enough sun apparently!
Learned something new: all cereal called corn because the original meaning of the word corn was grain. Googled it. Interesting!
We call that wheat
No we can’t … and it’s you that’s wrong - we call wheat fields corn fields in the UK ,you know … The place where this is made and filmed …..
I think that Mark has done a fantastic job of restoring this old folly! And with the modern extension for the girls is brilliant! 🥰💕🥰l
Cathy from Alabama
Great couple and supportive wife !
WOW, getting 2 episodes that I had not seen previously, a big win. It is hard to find these, so each is much appreciated. This particular construction was such a total winner, great ideas.
The Bath Lodge is such an adorable little building. I am so glad that someone had the wherewithal to find a useful and beautiful purpose for it!
AMAZING RENOVATION, I LIKE THE WHEAT FIELD, PRETTY
The host is genuinely good person!
Oh my what a gorgeous house and wonderful hard working man. I pity the lads that marry his daughters, they have big shoes to full, he is just so inspiring 💕
This restoration is so beautiful and now is a very large home.
This is a paradise. Hats off to u Sir for being so determined to build this home inspite of major heart attack. U deserve this beautiful Palace. God bless u all with good health happiness n loooooooooong life. All features r masterpiece.
Best restoration ever.
I love your show I don't care if I'm looking at Old or new it is awesome, don't listen to the naysayers, carry on
I, too, absolutely love your show. It got me through the early part of the pandemic. Love, love, love your show.
Mark : I'm having chest pains
George: But when are you gonna finish it ?
So glad to see this update! Such a lovely family!
This has become a great home, a nice blend of 18th century bling with modern comforts.
Sadly the marbled glass in the bathroom has become a necessity, as the field across the railway has become a new development now, on the north end of Ormskirk.
I liked his stubbornness about the glass between the old and new the conservation officer wanted, eventually he won, and I completely agree it does look OK the way it is, the old and new brick walls do blend in fine.
Just breathtaking results..I’m so happy for this family..awesome job!
Conservation officer!? Where the hell they was when this building was in completely ruin for decades!?
@@kingy002 Please dont make me laugh.
@@kingy002 It is common sense, you're a little more lenient in this kind of situations. You don't fuck with people over a minor details who is willing not only preserve but completely renovate derelict, which was at that time nothing more than a few bricks with symbolic value. And maybe today would not even stay there anymore. He is the one who is doing you, community living there and your Country a favor not the other way around. He pay a big amount for job nobody else want and he preserve old part in "original" state and this is only part officer should really care. In the end you can always demolish new part, but you can never renovate self imploded derelict.
wonderful project, awesome home, beautiful family ❤
Yep, another fantastic video! ❤️
What an extraordinary beautiful job and end product you all do with these wrecked buildings. Bravo,Bravo, Bravo, keep producing beautiful masterpieces.😁😁😘😘🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thank you for uploading this programme.
What a great space :)
George really knows his "stuff" and why the owners don't listen to him, I'll never understand. Wonder why it took so long for the conservationist to show up. When resorting these buildings/homes are you supposed to put the progress on hold, until they show up? Guess that's best, so not to make any costly mistakes. Home owner sure seems understanding. Just GORGEOUS!
Love the restored bathhouse. The British took an old Roman idea and made it elegant. What makes it a folly is that it's cold bathing and not warm bathing.
Truly amazing although the brute stone ceiling above the water looked a tad dangerous!
Such a unique experience even with the hard graft
I love the grass roof on the extension and the courtyard! I also LOVE the master bedroom
they have but its not in the show as it was recorded pre pool
@@LibertinaUno Oh okay
Amazing
I LOVE Mandela Barnes
Love this! Beautiful
Absolutely wonderful restoration, love this episode (apart from FAR too many adverts) this is classic piece of architecture saved from certain ruin, well done to Mark for sticking with it through thick and thin and take it a bit easier now and live with your wonderful project and family, and keep well!
I caved about a year ago, and paid for a youtube membership. No ads, anymore. Worth the monthly fee.
Well done looks amazing
amazing show and amazing project
Crazy good poem!!!!!! Crazyyyyyyyy. I love it!!!!!!!!! It's so good. Hahahaha
Wow Wow Wow 💗💗💗💗
Amazing work done 👌👏👏
Finally the place where my family was originally from
Love the update
Why is it that Conservation people are such prigs? they put nothing on the line that is theirs. No risk , no money no personal input at all just obstruction and road blocks. If not for the effort and real risks taken by people like Mark and his family this building would have been lost forever but the Conservation folks see none of that and that is why so many buildings have been lost over the years.
Jump to 35:40 if you don't want to rewatch the old episode. I would have rather watched more about the family and so forth.
ok what was it 8 weeks that the conservation officer hadn't been on site? No actually it was 8 weeks after his visit and at the time of his visit it had already been a long time since the last visit. I just think that if you are the conservation officer and you want a build to go a certain way, you need to be regularly visiting the site. Don't blame people or have them make changes when you are not communicating what needs to happen because you aren't on sight like you should be. Frankly that would bug the heck out of me.
Fantastic!
2008 the timing of this build, bank loan withdrawn. In retrospect knowing these banks were falling to the ground it was the worse timing for this build to go ahead
Great job
wow nice house!
Magnificent
Yes, I agree. The two elder daughters looked somewhat hostile, as well a teenager might be, having been uprooted from place to place and now settled into the middle of a remote corn (wheat) field. Also, I kept wondering if, after the girls have grown and moved on, the plan was to rent out the motel-ish looking addition, for extra income.
I watch these videos, amazing buildings being brought back to life, and I think “Now they’re home”. Then I find out they sold it. Sigh.....
Pretty sure that’s a wheat field, not corn.
Yeah, every time I see this, that just drive me nuts!! But the rest of the show is pretty good .......
Sourdoughsoul good job he is an architect not farmer
corn1
/kɔːn/
noun
1.
BRITISH
the chief cereal crop of a district, especially (in England) wheat or (in Scotland) oats.
"fields of corn"
Traditionally, any grain crop in Britain was. Called Corn.
It is the reason that American Maize is called corn.
In British history there are even the Corn Laws.
According to the Queen's English (Not Trump's), all cereal crops are "corn" - wheat , barley, oats, sorghum and all the rest. In America, they haven't spoken English for years, as George Bernard Shaw declares.
Looks like they need to create a moat to draw the water away from the building.
Time to look at the family-friendly adventures that surround you. Damn bank Canceled the loan and made it dufficult.
Hello Mr. Clarke, A most enjoyable presentation. I like your "Monty Pitching" introduction, but we want to see you in your Restoration Man costume in the flesh!
It's funny he's talking about walking through the corn fields but they are wheat fields funny
The English use "corn" to describe grain in general. They use the word "maize" for what American call corn.
Wheat George, Wheat!!!
These shows make me want to move to Britain so badly. You guys seem to have a lot of fun over there. It's really nice living in a white culture.
Good luck with that in the UK! Clearly you've never visited.
Fair play..that flat roof though.. :-(
4:44 That stuff he is walking through is called wheat. Not corn.
I would have appreciated more update and less review of the original. Especially the family's reaction to the poem and information on the original inhabitant.
Seems like this is a reclaimed land from a sea?Water table , is something I have not heard in a long while.
pretty sure those are wheat fields : )
Corn fields... Why didn't anyone tell him? Was the film crew just laughing?
What pisses me off most when people are willing completely renovate practically a junk house and nobody else want to do this extremely high costing job, there must be officer who regulate what owner must do. It bother him there are not distinction between old and new, but of course it didn't bother him before when a self collapsed few pieces of bricks was called old 18- century "building". For Christs sake He is doing you and community living there a favor, by putting in a lot of own money and doing fantastic renovation job and then some officer start to bitching about minor details nobody care because before this building was pure junk. If he want plastic frame, which is not on old building part and is not even visible, to save some cost, you fucking let him.
well said mate...control freaks run our world.
Corn field, looks like wheat to me.
This reno needs trees, bushes,ect.
100% agree
Four girls! 😰
Again to. Combat the pettiness of a local heritage person the question. Should be, would you do the same to theQuern. If she wanted to build something New on Windsor Castle?
As the sovereign, the Queen is the source of law, she is not subject to it. So no. But yes the bureaucracy is ridiculous.
Alec Blunden, She is not an absolute monarch. And is subject to Law.
While she may express her desires of direction, it is Parliament that creates the statutes that govern people.
It is the interpretation of those statutes such as the creation of English Heritage, that causes the difficulties of the bureaucrats.
Having seen the original program here on You Tube, and this Update, that this homeowner was able to show to the bureaucrat by a mock up, how the insisted delineation would appear seemed to be enough to be able to convince the individual (and most likely his superiors ) that such a delineation would actually detract from the principles by which they operate.
Who? What is theQuern????
Wheat fields. Not corn fields.
Says he's walking through cornfields. Proceeds to walk through a sea of not corn...
He is a city boy ! 🤔
This is ridiculous that the conservation department makes you follow rules when the damn building was about to collapse anyway! Foolishness!
wonderful project thanks to Mark , except the bedroom furniture worthy of an arab prince
Somebody tell him that's wheat or barley!
Wheat not corn
That first house was a wheat field not a cornfield
That's what I was thinking... funkiest corn I've ever seen... looks like wheat to me.
@@malagastehlaate230 Sure officially it's wheat, but in the UK, wheat fields are commonly called corn fields. Odd, I know, but the English are an odd, eccentric lot.
@@JupiterLune Makes you wonder who started that nonsense? Seems odd... Coming from someone who lives in Iowa I really do know what corn looks like and that was certainly not it. I just don't get it. But to each their own... I'll have to remember that if I ever get to go to England.
Corn fields?
Please subtitles
There are subtitles, just click on the CC 🙂
Appears they sold it less than a year later
Where did you get this information? If so, there would have had to be a very solid reason as they appeared so happy to accept this as their 'real and final home' .
@@CherylSimser I just looked it up....sold for 900,000 "On the market with Andrew John estate agents, this historic house could be yours for £900,000. ' Just look up Ormskirk Bath Lodge.
OMG! I could never leave a beautiful house like this
That isn’t a corn field!
Silly City Boy!!! Wheat fields, not corn fields :0)
Wheat and not corn.
The old part is magnificent. The extension or the "modern" part looks cheap. As any other new modern construction.
I have a feeling no one really wants honest comments. Too bad as that's how people often see things that they had missed. I found this episode difficult to watch. How can people just look at the buildings, and not see what is happening within the family. Oh..that's right...not supposed to notice those things. I feel bad for the kids.
So dumb to force them to put a divider from old to new.
Yes, normally they make you match the original virtually seamlessly from what we have seen.
Dude. It’s a WHEAT FIELD not a corn field 🙄🤦🏻♀️
Still no closed captions yet?....oh crap.
he is talking English. If you want it in Spanish or Russian hard bloody cheese!
@@fionagregory8078 wow, geez, I am Deaf.
@@fionagregory8078 people with hearing difficulties need the captions to access the shows and videos.
Another property next to a train line? Why?
why not?
@@fionagregory8078 Near train tracks, highways and airports top the list of the least desirable places to live.
Yup deal breaker for me. And no mature trees for privacy.
its a wheat field....just sayin
lovely family but so NOT my style.. The modern addition was just tacky to me
A thumbs down only because of the ads every 4 minutes.
That’s wheat not corn! 🤦🏼♀️The man was a Freemason that’s why he was buried in a pyramid!
The wife’s bedroom decor is a bit much.
I miss about half of what they say,
The English seem to talk down into their shirt buttons.
No we do not. British is best and George Clarke's the best architect.
You are just unfamiliar with hearing british, then, the more you listen to it the more you'll get it. The same is true of any dialect, really.
I never liked the building.
Corn?
the chief cereal crop of a district, especially (in England) wheat or (in Scotland) oats.
"fields of corn"
😂😂😂
The important hardware evolutionarily ski because risk thirdly include versus a absent friend. peaceful, heady cover
That man is so full of shit! Who wants to live in a hodge podge, what that guy wants destroys the harmony and balance of the whole place, let the new blend seamlessly with the old. He is sacrificing esthetics and livability for being able to identify with out effort what is historical that is stupid and short sighted, those who care should have the know whats what. There for it shouldn't matter, these are residences not bloody museums, if the government is that damb picky they should fix them up themselves. Other than getting the property cheap, and that in usually undone by the cost of period accurate renovation, there is no advantage in taking on a scheduled building. If the Government really gave a damb they would offer incetives to fix the places up, instead of stumbling blocks that make it harder. There should be interest free Government loans to pay the difference in cost between the accurate materials and modern ones, and the property should be tax free while in is being renovated until move in and depending on the amount of cost a tax discount for a decade or two.
hideous, tacky interiors...
In places, it’s not what I would have chosen but it’s more important that they are comfortable and happy there. He is an amazing man with a big heart and soul. Hats off to them .
I was thinking that but tried to be polite and not comment then saw yours! I really don’t like anything but then they probably wouldn’t like my cottagy farmhouse lived in style! Takes all sorts.
You are walking through a wheat field George. Guess you didn't go to agriculture school.
He is an architect and a bloody good one as well as being the perfect man.
@@fionagregory8078 I have watched several of George's videos and always enjoy them. George didn't go to agriculture school. Assume he went to architecture school from your videos I have seen.
h southard yes he’s an architect
Im surprised that he has a job like this when he can't even tell corn fields from wheat fields....
CORN

I am sorry but that does not look like any corn field I have ever seen.
