    Great video of my old City and place I grew up in Charlie.
    The pub you spoke of must of been the Golden Lion. They used to take prisoner up near to Williamson Park to be hung, but would stop at the Golden Lion where they would let them have a half a pint before they were noosed and left to swing. Would love to move back there one day 🤞🤞

    Never been to Lancaster, but what a really beautiful place, and it all seems so civilised.
    There's plenty to see and do it seems, and there didn't appear to be any run down areas. Obviously, the local council are spending people's hard earned taxes wisely! As they should do, on maintaining the surroundings, and giving the locals a City to be proud of.
    It's good to see that it hasn't been over developed, with lifeless soul-less architectural monstrosities, like you so often see in other towns.
    Well done Lancaster, I will add you to by travel bucket list!

    Bloody he’ll Charlie, you are certainly getting out and about this visiting other towns and cities, you have done some excellent videos which give us an insight into what they are like.
    Having travelled all over the UK and visited many of the places that you have been filming, I was discussed to see the condition of the overflowing bins and the rubbish scattered all over the precinct on your Lancaster video.
    Lancaster was and still is an historical place to visit, many years a go you would not seen the bins full like they are today and rubbish all over the place because they had street cleaners who were meticulous in their job and the place was spotless. How thing change, but it’s not a good projection of their city. 👍👍👍👍👍

      @@noelward8047 Same here. My nan had a big cast iron mangle. She had a husband and six kids, and, of course, in those old-fashioned times, she washed for all of them. There was a wash house in the back yard. There was a big sink built into a brick top and a fireplace underneath it. The fire heated the water in the sink for washing. There was no tap and no plug. The water had to be brought in by bucket and emptied the same way. I never saw it in use, although I did light a fire in there once, as a kid. The chimney must have been blocked, because it produced a lot of smoke.
      My nan also used a dolly tub with the agitator thing. I've just looked it up, and apparently it was called a dolly peg or a dolly pin. I dont remember those terms being used, but by the time I came along, she had a primitive washing machine.
