      We've not been in this Church before Michael and so glad we did. They were preparing for a wedding at 2pm and we got a glimpse of the bride. Very beautiful 🥰

    Such wonderful views from the Beacon and of the village where, incidentally, Vera Lynn lived and is buried.

      Oh yes Sue, the views are breath-taking. My father was a butcher in Ditchling at one time and used to serve Vera in his shop. She lived to a ripe age; lovely lady. Thank you for watching Sue 🥰

      Oh yes Graeme, we were so lucky, it's been very cold for September here but this was a lovely day and I think we have more to come this week. Thank you for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed the Church and the Sculptures. How is it up there in Bonnie Scotland? 🥰

    Thanks for the video Lynn, another place I haven't been to for years. Like the music it reminded me of the the theme to The Detectorists.

    A nice exploration of Ditchling - I did not know the old cottage opposite the church was owned by Anne of Cleves but have always admired it. The cows are usually on the other side of the fence up at Ditchling Beacon!!

      Thanks Jean, glad you enjoyed it. We have seen the cows in this part before. I’m always glad when they are there as as soon as we pass them Ky can run free. Thank you for watching, I love the village here, so much of interest

    Charming video and such happy music, too! I love the sculpture garden idea, and the art in the house was really good! Indeed, the view from Ditchling Beacon is superb. I camped there three years ago, just to the right of that runner, and to wake up and see that panorama from my tent was one of life's great joys. Great to see this location again, and Ky enjoying an ice cream!

      Hi Lynn Richard and Ky such a lovely village a lot of old buildings which look really great with there cottage gardens. The church was really good lots of stained glass windows beautiful. Wow the spectacular views up on the downs breath taking and how Ky loved his run around they really do cover some ground in a very short time, how he enjoyed his ice cream fantastic video Lynn thankyou for sharing it with us see you on the next video have a good Sunday. Xxx❤😅

      I'm so glad you enjoyed watching Andrew and thanks for leaving your kind words. There were many houses with open art but we didn't have time, sadly, to look at them all. It was lovely to see the sculptures in the garden and the art; very expensive though. The Beacon is so beautiful and I can only imagine that sight when you woke from your tent, how lovely to do that. Thanks for watching 🥰

      @@fionahammond9396 Good morning Fiona, thank you for coming with us on this visit to Ditchling, I'm so glad you enjoyed it. We did, it was such a beautiful day with a mixture of all sorts to keep us busy. I loved the Church, it was so peaceful in there with hymns playing, getting ready for a wedding shortly after our visit. Those views are so amazing up there and I dream about being there sometimes, it's one of my favourite walks on a sunny day. Ky loves it too; he can run like a greyhound up there with no worries. Oh and yes, a treat to end with 😄 Enjoy your day Fiona 🥰 xx

    Good evening Lynn, Richard & Ky. We've been out most of the day, so only just watched you latest. I don't know exactly where Ditchling is, but it's got a lot of history surrounding it. That timber framed Tudor house was quite magnificent. Those art figures were okay, but lots of parks and gardens are doing similar things. Some better than others. That high ground you went to gave some wonderful views. Can you see the coast from there?
    We took advantage of the final day of the Test Valley Rambler bus, which travels between Andover and Romsey, taking in many of the tourist attractions. Blue Star are operating the bus, funded by South Western Railway. Today was the final day of this Sundays only service, so we opted for a few hours at Mottisfont. The weather was good for the most part, but got a little chilly in the last hour. Our bus passes are accepted for these journeys, so it makes for a cheap, hassle free day out. This was my 4th journey with them. Absolutely wonderful driver, when you consider the narrow lanes and villages he has to negotiate.

      @LynnB_Ky  Місяць тому

      Oh it sounds like you've had a lovely day Lionel and Mary, I've not been to Mottifont but a friend of mine made a video there and it looks lovely.
      Oh yes, Ditchling is steeped in history and the architecture there is something else. There are many Tudor houses in the village but my favourites were the tall one and the one given to Anne of Cleves by Henry VIII called Wings Place. The sculptures were for sale and in the thousands. Not for me! Ditchling Beacon is the highest point you can go to in Sussex and yes, magnificent views from the North Downs right down to the sea. Quite wonderful. Thank you for watching. Enjoy the rest of your holiday. We shall miss meeting up with you as we are going to Wiltshire this week
