@@TheJollyReiver yes there is so much to see in the Peak District. You'd need a solid week to really do it justice. Its landscapes are unique and diverse.

I thought 'hob' was an old english term for ther fireplace, so a hobgoblin was a house faerie, like a brownie, that stayed close to the hob/fireplace when not helping around the house.
Aye many different variations of what the term means. Varying hugely in different regions too. You’re right in thinking that must seem to be associated with the home though
Hobs, Boggarts, Hobgoblins etc might be folklore from the Anglo Saxon tribes which came to Britain from the continent, the Nordic countries also have folklore of little sprites and spirits which sometimes offer help or act maliciously if mistreated or disrespected. But so much history is forgotten and lost it's hard to say with certainty, but there does seem to be some common theme with north western European folklore
@@TheJollyReiver Here's some more folklore I'd like to see video about. Are there some that you have not heard before? Dragon of Mordiford Jack the Giant Killer Beast of Dean Cath Palug Boneless/Frittening/It of Shetland Isles Afanc

Brilliant episode. The storytelling and cinematography are excellent. Like watching an early 20th century explorer with a better sense of the value of preserving cultural heritage. Thank you.
I was born and raised in Nottingham, just across the county border. I remember a school trip to Arbor Low (among other sites) around 1965. In 1974, my brother and I went on a walking holiday in Derbyshire's Peak District. We came across a tumulus that had a very evil atmosphere, and were were beset by biting midges; we came away pretty quickly. My grandparents on the maternal side hailed from the coal mining district on the Notts/Derby border, but I can't remember them speaking of any local folklore. I was too young to ask back then, not having developed an interest in it yet. Anyway, thanks for a very interesting video.
I've visited the Boggart hole near Robin Hood's bay in Yorkshire. It told me if people are going to visit him to please be respectful of his home, or he'll disrespect *your* home
Love this video and happy to have discovered a great folklore channel! Also have to say that is a very unique accent you have there, it sounds to by untrained ears to be fluctuating between English Midlands and Edinburgh. Really good voice to listen to!
Another beautiful and brilliant video! Also educational! You, my friend, have *the* *dream* *job*! ❤ So good to wake up on a rainy, mid-winter morning to a new Jolly Reiver video. 🙂
Went by Hob’s Hill House a few years ago. Very interesting place. You can’t see Chatsworth house from what I recall but it is a nice walk back down into the estate grounds. If I recall there is a very small stone circle nearby too and it is marked on the OS maps. Great video and always interesting!
Another brilliant video my friend! Those were some really fascinating locations, the mossy boulders in the gorge and the cave definitely felt very magical and powerful as you said. The drone footage is looking great too, keep up the good work!
Your production values have really had an amazing rise in the last year or two, I never thought about there being a lack of it in ye older days but it's really showing now! But most importantly, your vids (still) have an atmosphere of mystique and the stories are well told. Quite engrossing stuff.
oh this one was simply splendid to watch. the visuals, the highly captivating misty looking forests in 8:08, the ever-so-perfect background music that fits the scenery but isn't loud enough to distract as you speak, the calm yet intriguing narration, the story, everything. keep up the amazing videos, my guy!✨🖤
I'm a local resident all my life and I recall from somewhere that stones were standing at arbor low in living memory in the early 1900s. Never been to the thirst cave although meant often! Always the same when you live in a place, travel hours to see other places but don't see places on your doorstep. I'll let you off saying we're not northern in the top half of Derbyshire! And I'm sure there's a lot of people inYorkshire who'll just just love the south of the Tyne comment I though it was brilliant! It was a great video brilliantly filmed and caught the atmosphere of the moors and dales. There's definitely a powerful atmosphere in some of the places it's almost palpable and there's a lot of other spots round abouts with that same presence Cheers for another great video it nice to learn new facts on your channel about places I'm unlikely to visit.
Just a couple of miles away, in Monsal Dale, there's an amazing viaduct. Rising above that is a hill with an Iron-Age fort on top. A hobb is said to live up there too! There's an excellent cafe just there as well called Hobbs Cafe so you can have a brew whilst admiring the stonework of the viaduct! 😉
A wonderful history of Hobs…my’ol mate….well done…always entertaining…and very well researched 😊👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Now…I’m looking for Hobs….in Switzerland…”Fabelwesen Hobe” here 😄😉🇨🇭🏴
I live about a mile from your last location, just over the border in Staffordshire, where we too have Hob-related tales. If I’d seen you when you were up here, I’d have gladly stood you a lunch in the local pub!
@@TheJollyReiver All the best parts of Derbyshire are actually in Staffordshire! The offer of lunch in the pub was genuine- and I know meeting ‘fans’ is odd, so I wouldn’t need to be there, I’d just set up a tab at the bar beforehand (as long as you didn’t bring a coach load with you and go wild! ;-) )
Oh no I’d love to take you up on the offer and I always enjoy meeting new people! How very kind of you. When I’m planning my trip I’ll give you another message on this thread and we can arrange something :-)
This area is so close to my heart and I've somehow never been to these places! I'll definitely make a trip to these spots next time I'm in the area. Keep up the great work! If you're ever in the area again it may be worth checking out the chained oak at Alston, one of the most powerful folk tales and spots around...
Hi. Great video and we love your channel. Do you have any videos relating to Welsh folklore? We are visiting North Wales soon and would love to visit any sites you may know of. Thank you.
Really enjoyable video, thanks. If there's reference to "giants" it could mean the "old" gods that previously inhabited a region, similar to how the Anglo-Saxons referred to the Roman ruins in Britain as the "work of giants".
@@TheJollyReiver it features a lot of other types of English folklore but boggarts are relevant throughout in a very broad way. The first few are a light read, it's definitely relevant too.
@@TheJollyReiver when I last went it was the height of a heatwave. It was still boggy in the surrounding areas. I can see why people think weird things happen there.
"Aint no boogers out tonight cuz my daddy killed 'em al last night!" When was kid in South Carolina USA, we would go out at night and sing that. Then a grownup, designated the boogger would jump out of the trees, and we would all try to make it to the porch before he caught us. I reckon booger came from boggart. It was a rural area where most of the white folks were of English or Scottish descent.
I lived in the southern US in an area heavily settled by Scots. There were "wood-boogers" "swamp-boogers" "night-boogers", you name it, all collectively known as "boogers". Funny thing was, they each referred to some sorta cryptid or ghost, like a Bigfoot was a "woodbooger" and a poltergheist was a "housebooger".
Hi there just curious do you still have that video on your channel of the poor boy with the walking stick and the enchanter who borrows it and takes the boy to the hidden mound where theres a bell and the king is sleeping with all the treasure around it. Cant seem to find it was it taken down? 😕
Hob is mainly a northern English term particularly concentrated around Yorkshire, the term is a dialect variant of Rob, from Robert, a name implying famous, well known, with diminutive Robin, but hob was used as a generic term for any rural person, with a slight negative connotation, rustic, yokel, country bumpkin, an unsophisticared or backward person from the countryside. Applied to the hairy, naked humanoid of folktales a Hob was similar to the lowland Scottish Bruni (that King James tranlates as Brownie "in our language" in Daemonologie, having the appearance of a rough man). On the Isle of Man the same character was known as Fenodyree, with his undomesticated, wild equivalent, the Buggane, said to push sheep over cliffs, among other things. GW Peacock refers to Brownie-like character said to live in the Lincolnshire fens though belief in it waned as the fens were drained. Although Scot (1584) describes the "hobgoblin" and was based in Kent the character is largely absent historically from southern tales, with one possible exception. Scot while based in Kent was of Scottish extraction. Scot also equates Hobgoblin with Robin Goodfellow, who, in a pamphlet of the 1600s was said to have been previously known as Willy Wisp. Robin Goodfellow has many characteristics shared with Will o the Wisp, known by various names around the country. Robin would lead unwary travellers off track into marshes leaving them stranded with a "ho, ho, ho". Gervase of Tilbury in a book of marvels, the Otia Imperialia, 13th cent., mentions small men that resided in the marshes of Essex that lived off frogs and would help out local farmers, but also had a mischevious streak, leading travellers into bogs and leaving them with a laugh, similar to the later Robin Goodfellow. Interestingly Scottish Brownies were said to have webbed feat like frogs. Terms Bogles, Boggles, Boggarts, Buganes, etc. would appear to derive from, or be related to, bog, var. bug-, as in a swamp or mire ( that's a fen, if you're a "Fennie" from East Anglia, i live in Norfolk). Always interested to learn about more northern tales, being a southerner.
Simply just want to be left alone? Yep that's what we personally want to be is left alone unless others want to help us in this western war torn world leave us alone. But yet we personally would prefer to be left alone with those whom are resting and sleeping in the underworld. Yet however forgive us if we've mentioned this before, for any historical mythological beings of each cultured country to be awaken from their sleep they must be awoken from and by the chosen and/or few chosen ones from the Gods and Goddesses
Lovely, as a Northumbrian residing in Derbyshire, it was very interesting to learn some lore relating to my adoptive home. Thank you!

4:47 It's all relative! I grew up in London, and my father said (jokingly) that 'the north' was anything north of Watford.

weirdly a 'hobgoblin' is helpful but a gobblin, is not@@the98themperoroftheholybri33
Hob means have. Nob means have not. It's the ancient Saxon tongue. A Hob Goblin is a greedy Goblin.

Nice footage! I went to Arbor Low - beautiful place. I suspect the stones did stand as would be exceptional if all were intended to be recumbent

Applied to the hairy, naked humanoid of folktales a Hob was similar to the lowland Scottish Bruni (that King James tranlates as Brownie "in our language" in Daemonologie, having the appearance of a rough man). On the Isle of Man the same character was known as Fenodyree, with his undomesticated, wild equivalent, the Buggane, said to push sheep over cliffs, among other things. GW Peacock refers to Brownie-like character said to live in the Lincolnshire fens though belief in it waned as the fens were drained.
