Of all the walking video channels I watch, I like yours the best. I especially like that you not only show us the various buildings and sites, but also add little comments about them. Hearing the history of these wonderful places brings them to life. Thank you!!!
Thank you again. A thought provoking trip through a village that was selfless, not selfish. Nor the " I have rights, rather I am taking responsibility for my area". Also pleased they were not forgotten & those now living has kept the beauty of the village.
I visited Eyam in the early 90’s.It seems even more beautiful now. The church is the only thing I remember,along with the stocks and the bull ring. They had the plaques on buildings but I don’t remember Plague House and that beautiful garden.I always remember it as one of my favourite villages so it was lovely to walk with you on a trip down memory lane.I would have bought all the flowers that needed rescuing.!💐Thank you so much you did an excellent job and I liked the words on the screen.Take care,God bless.
We visited the Hall there. The atmosphere is of a very happy home, I think the spirits of people who lived or spent time there are still around. Lovely place.
Whilst living in England I worked in a Primary school as a Teacher Assistant. I remember us taking a year 6 class to Eyam since they were learning all about Eyam's plaque at the time. I hadn't lived in England long. I was taken back about this plight this lovely village had to endure. I was greatly saddened but perplexed they wanted to fight this alone without any outside help. Astonished too that they didn't want anyone from outside their quaint village harmed. Amazing story and thanks for sharing this walk with us! :)
Thank you - it's such a sad story I didn't know if anyone would want to sit through the grim story but seems that people do so thank you for watching it makes me very happy!
Hats off to the People of EYAM for their Sacrifice . I don't know if there is any other example elsewhere shown by the People for the better of the Society. Salute to those extraordinary people of Eyam . Thanks for your Video 👍
thankyou for a great informative video on eyam such a wonderful and courageous village that was and is ,the pain and suffering so others may live the lives that they was unable to do so the villagers of today must be proud of there past great respect to them.again thanks for the walk around eyam i really enjoyed it.
Another great views and walk along and views you do a good job hope you're safe and well have a good day God bless I'm safe and well we've got nice weather
The building you passed on the right just after the nice car used to be a funeral home before it was made into a home. The building used to terrify me. 😂 The building on the left just after the oldest listed building just after the post office used to be a pub and bed and breakfast. We used to jump in the troughs as kids. I grew up in the village :)
Great video! Good to have the close up on the plaques, I missed quite a few on my visit. The Bull Ring is gruesome, as is the Sheep Roasting machine. At least we evolved enough to stop the Bull/Bear Baiting, maybe in a century or two we will evolve enough to recognise the horror of Sheep Roasting.
An excellent depiction with interesting historical facts, you’re definitely getting better at this ! PS the streets do not appear to deep with squelchy mud.
The low front doors are not a sign of short people in the past. There is more material brought into an old village, than is taken out. The road surface is built up over the centuries. So old houses become partially buried. Check out the windows, they are low as well. Whilst bad diet could stunt growth, that was not everyone or all the time. I’m 6’4, when those houses we’re built 300 years ago, I would have fitted.
You didn't show the council houses a few yard up the road from where you started the video. And no mention of how the locals hate outsiders because most houses are second homes and stand empty most of the year. There is real antagonism there - a friend of mine has finally sold-up and moved out of the place.

Can you go YHA eyam
Thanks as always 👍
A place where heroes of the past can teach the moaners of the present what sacrifice and hardship really is.
Well said!
England is very beautiful country.
It is!

The church is lovely and very welcoming to visitors.
They suffered terribly but saved many lives in doing that. A visit to the village gives you plenty to think about. God bless those wonderful souls. 🙏
We visited the Hall there. The atmosphere is of a very happy home, I think the spirits of people who lived or spent time there are still around. Lovely place.
Went there about a month ago, really enjoyed wandering around. Quite a special place.
I live there❤
Lovely / really peaceful place

Eyam made me sad for what the people went through. Lovey landscape and gorgeous historic buildings. Great video.
Incredible the sacrifice the villagers of Eyam undertook when faced with an outbreak of a virus!

So true and glad you pointed these two things out - you're right. Horrific what we do to animals.
I’m going here soon. Can’t wait to go!
Have fun!
Thanks for a very factual video really enjoyed it 👍 and as always keep on walking 🚶🏻♂️
Thanks, will do!
The book year of wonders is written about the people that lived there at that time and is worth a read
Oooh thanks Ruth - will have a look for that now
@@GimbalWalkTV it’s by Geraldine Brooks and is in my top of all time favourite books. Thank you for posting this video.
An excellent depiction with interesting historical facts, you’re definitely getting better at this ! PS the streets do not appear to deep with squelchy mud.
Thank you - yes my white trainers made it through this one without getting mucky!
Very good, interesting and also sad
Very interesting and informative. Well done 😊
So nice of you thank you Janet!
Another fantastic video of EYAM | Walking tour of the Eyam Plague Village Derbyshire, England | Peak District UK.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍🌹🌹
Thanks Michael!
Nice place
Yes it is!

Wow - that's something I didn't know thanks John!
They should rename this village as the city of heroes!
Do you do the walks in the winter ❤️
Oh yes definitely 👍👍

It has a very sad history yeah!
Enjoyed this video Gimbal walk tv 📹👍💙😎
Sadly i
Didn't no it's connection to the black death- the plague 💔💔💔
Thanks Levi - yea it's a sad tale isn't t!

I've no real reason to show or mention those things - Mine is a positive channel ❤️
Many years ago I was chased by 2 horses when I attempted to reach the walled off graves in a field
No way! 🤣 That's crazy!
Really nice video but I find that having to read the narration is very distracting from enjoying the visuals.
Don’t read them then???
@@Odo55 Speak? I've never spoke?!
Great place to visit, I find the footsteps during the video off putting
I will try and float along from now on Irene 🤣
No I don’t eat meat and I love sheep’s they are so cute ❤️
True!
Not such a happy custom for the sheep.
So true
