  • In this video, we take a look at the rich mining heritage of the Nenthead valley, near Alston, North Pennines. Nearly 400 years of activity has left many remains including tips, adits, shops, tramways, shafts, leets, a compressor house, hushes etc, etc.

    Real Minecraft. How mining has changed, digital mining for crypto as an example. This was beautifully shot and narrated. Bravo.

    What a brilliant edit, drove past this place hundreds of times and didn't realise how much stuff still remains, cannot believe that this edit has thumbs down ,,,, love to see them do as good probably not even flyers.

    Hi Steve, it is Graham Roberts, long time watcher of RGVX. I am working abroad and responding from my Smart TV hence the odd user ID. I really like this channel, the video footage and narration are really good, I think you have hit on something here and I hope the increase in subs will be testament to this.

      Hi Graham, thanks. We shall see, it seems to have a small niche audience so far :) I do enjoy making these but they are a lot of work :)

    Great footage again 👍 It’s a little odd to see an area I know so well as I spent several months doing almost nothing other than wandering around the moors above Nenthead and Alston poking around in every adit and sough I could find before moving down to Gunnerside Gill to do a mapping survey, which meant being chest-deep in freezing water every day for a fortnight whilst in Sir Francis Level.
    Gunnerside would be a brilliant place for you to get some drone footage 🙂

    • @flyingthroughhistory7211
      @flyingthroughhistory7211  3 роки тому +1

      Interesting! Yes, Gunnerside is on the list, love that place, would make an epic video just from the landscape alone. Not been in Sir Francis so far.

      @@flyingthroughhistory7211 i do alot of my flying around Strathclyde park Scotland it was the sight of 3 coal mines, tanochside, douglas park and the hamilton palace they have done there best to disguise the remains but once you know what you are looking at the shafts adits spoil montains start jumping out the spoil heap for the 4 pits of the palace mine is about 600m wide and 50m high and thats after they used a lot of it to build the M74 and Hamilton interchange the air shafts are everywhere you look they had to create Strathclyde loch due to the amount of subsidence caused by the amount of material removed thanks to your videos its made my flying so much more fun and intresting 👍keep them coming and thank you
