I was rambling through Montacute when I noticed an isolated pub on the OS Map. Decided to hike up to the Prince of Wales for breakfast. It was a great decision. What a beautiful view! I wish I had seen your video beforehand. It would have the made the walk in the area even richer. Love the information packed in these videos. Keep up the good work. You have a unique and important piece of pedestrian/hiking history right in your backyard. I took a 30-mile hiking detour from my planned route just to visit Thomas Coryate's shoes in the church in Odcombe. The church was locked but it was still a treat to be in the beloved home of the "Odcombian leg-stretcher." He wrote of his "love of Odcombe in Somersetshire, which is so deare unto me that I preferre the very smoke thereof before the fire of all other places under the Sunne." Quite an endorsement from someone who had seen more of the world than almost any other living person at the time.
I very much appreciate your walk of Ham Hill, Abbie. I grow up very close and as a local who now lives abroad, it's a nice video to regularly watch when one gets home sick. Furthermore, it's a very informative video and I've learnt some more about the place I call home. Thanks for the UA-cam content.
Another wonderful video. From the number of videos produced, England has a great trail system and public reserves. Thanks for your efforts to share your experiences with the UA-cam community.
We visited Ham Hill today and watched your video to learn more about what we had seen (or just missed!) This video has plenty of information that is well presented with natural enthusiasm. You've just gained another subscriber
Thanks for posting Abbie. It’s nice to have such places close to home. My small town has a city park with a small lake, foot paths and mountain bike trials, lots of geese and ducks. squirrels and deer from time to time. It’s a peaceful place. Looks like you have a nice spot there too.
love watching your videos on these dark winter evenings when I'm unable to get out in the fresh air....roll on spring ......cheers Abbie keep um coming
Beautiful place use to spend many a day waking and exploring ham Hill one of the best spaces around in my opinion and tinker bubble is lovely if you ever get to go up there to one of there open days as I use to live up there 😊😊
Spent my early years in Crewkerne (not to far away) now live up north, The last time i went back to the area I stopped off at Ham Hill to sit and enjoy the view as i did as a kid that was the first time i seen the new stone circle, How odd? anyway, thanks for the trip down memory lane, I really enjoyed that thank you. 👍
Brilliant nice one Abbey a very interesting video! loving all the info and facts about this place! It's been a long time time since I have been here for hikes and for an explore! Thanks for sharing.. Cheers
I'm only a half hour drive from Ham Hill. Abbie, have you've ever come across the hippies living in the woods up there? They have amazing shelters, compostable toilet, workshop's etc. They have an orchard and you can buy Apple Juice from them. I'm trying to think exactly where they are but I've only walked a small part of Ham Hill so couldn't tell you exactly where they are
13:10 Sorry to be lazy but what were enclosure acts? 15:36 Henry the VIII was a menace wasn't he? Once saw the remains of a nice old cathedral in Scotland. At the time I thought they were weathered ruins but thanks to you I've learned they were really just pulled down by that jerk.
I’ve lived around Ham Hill my whole life. I am lucky enough to know the ranger team personally and work with them as a volunteer.

You should have a hike around avishays through Lydmarsh into Chaffcombe. Fantastic views there!
Is that on the River Parrett Trail?
Great bit of filming and commentary.
Once again you do your bit to advertise the Great British countryside.

Abbie's walks are a million times more engaging than any of those presented by Julia Bradbury.
is this near the walk on new years day please?
This is the same route :)
