  • A circular walk around Helmshore with the occasional glimpses of sunshine.
    Starting at Robin Hood's Well on Holcombe Moor. Points of interest are the beautiful hamlet of Sunny Bank, once a cotton mill, a climb up Musbury Tor Hill, Helmshore Viaduct, Helmshore Mill Museum, Helmshore farmers market, Snig Hole park. About 5.5 miles not including the hill climbs.

    I was 12 yrs old the last time I walked up to Musbury Tor Hill, I am now 65, and this video brought back some awesome memories, growing up in Helmshore I did not appreciate the beauty of the land around me, Many thanks for sharing, greetings from New Zealand.

      Hi, glad to hear this video brought back memories, lovely place for walking, we visit often. My uncle moved to New Zealand with work many years ago and decided to stay.

    2:59 i grew up on in two houses on Sunnybank Cottages, numbers 13 and 19. Also the hill you walked down 30 seconds previously used to sledge down there as a child in the winter! Great video thank you

      What a great place to have spent your childhood, that reminds me, must pop down to the Sunday market again. Thanks for watching.

    Interesting to know about the farmers' market. Helmshore Museum has changed greatly since I first visited (when it was run by a society and entry only by prior arrangement).

      Yes, the market is good for fresh produce from Great House Farm. The museum is good value for a fiver with free tours throughout the day. I also enjoyed the walk up Musbury Tor, some great views. Take it easy with that rock climbing.

    Very good that, thanks. The lunatic on a horse needs arresting, that was incredibly dangerous and disrespectful. Sorry to be negative though, you did a great job of showing the village and area in it's full glory.

      Glad you enjoyed the video, I do enjoy visiting Helmshore and reading about its history. Good job I heard the horse coming, it sounded a gallop rather than a trot so I got out of the way. Thanks for watching.

    HI Steve a very comprehensive film of your locations I know Helmshore and Musberry Heights. But didn't recognize your route. Wow Im intrigued by your magic invisible wand . How did you film holding an invisible tripod? From all those angles? Very impressive. I think that horse was dancing because it wanted to get out or feeling trapped. Well that's my view. As usual liked the cool laid back piano style. Nice shots on route.

      Having fun with a new toy, the Insta360 with a selfie stick. It's really weird because it shoots 360 degrees, then you can move the final camera positions during editing. Not quite got my head around it yet. I agree about the horse, it was brought in to a small field for some reason but didn't like it. Really enjoyed the early morning walk up Musbury Tor. Thanks as always for your comments.
