- WELCOME to Hopwood Hall Estate (AKA "Downton Shabby") in Middleton, England.
This channel follows the unexpected adventures of American Hopwood DePree who, whilst living in Los Angeles, traced his family tree online, and discovered his abandoned 60-room ancestral home "Hopwood Hall Estate" that dates back to 1426! Hopwood was informed that if he didn't do something very soon to save the Hall, it would be lost forever. So he packed his bags and left LA to take on the madcap challenge of his life with a passionate team of supporters and community volunteers, in England.
We share the ups & downs, failures & triumphs of this group effort DIY rescue emergency: learning new skills, discovering house & garden secrets and seeking the inspirations that will be needed to get this Estate back onto her feet once again!
Thank you to all our Patreons, Friends and Supporters who have decided to come along on the ride with us as we transform this irreplaceable British treasure back to her original grandeur! It may take us some time, but we embrace it, as the fun is in the process!! We hope you agree and that you will gain as much from watching the journey as we are experiencing it - and do feel free to contact us via the comments section below.

That was a beautiful gesture mate. Having spent the whole day in tears Yesterday, I’ve finally decided to cheer myself up, & celebrate with some good old fish and chips. “ King Charles 111’. I bow.
Thanks Stephen - fish and chips are a great way to cheer yourself up! I may go get the same!
Your such a gracious and sincere young man. You're uncommon to be able to historically represent both sides of the pond, and you do so quite elegantly.
That's so nice Trina- thanks so much!
What a beautiful dedication, Hopwood. I like you am an American, but I was deeply saddened to hear of the death of Queen Elizabeth II. She was an inspiration to so many.
She truly was. Thanks so much - great to hear from you.
A fellow American here. Her Majesty was my 10th cousin once removed, and that and 50 cents might get me half of tomorrow's newspaper. Our ancestor in common was born in 1562. I do love the UK and hope to visit again sometime in the future. Thank you.
Wow what an interesting discovery!
A nice tribute to an amazing woman.
Thanks Joan - she sure was
she was an angel on earth.

Lovely Hopwood I was at the opening of the college in 1992. Queen Elizabeth also had a guided tour of Hopwood Old Hall as it was called then
That was a lovely tribute that you delivered on the passing of HRH QUEEN ELIZABETH II and the tree that will be planted in her honor. I am not a British Subject but an American Citizen that loves the history of the Royal Family and the UK!!!
Thank you for posting this lovely tribute to an amazing woman who made the world a better place. 🕊🌳

I remeber the Queens Siver Jubilee in 1977 when Hopwood Hall was a vibrant student bar and meeting place - Triumph brought out a special Jubilee Bonneville 750cc I drooled over.
Sounds like great memories
@@HopwoodXIV We thought the De La Salle College and its statley grounds would last for ever - in a decade it was all gone
@@trevortrevortsr2 It's unbelievable how quickly things change! A good reminder to always appreciate everything while it lasts!
Thank you for doing this tribute. Queen Elizabeth II was certainly a jewel. The whole world was blessed to have someone like her as a leader and inspiration.
I'll miss her Christmas messages. She seemed like everybody's mum.
Condolences from West Michigan.
