Another cracking video Ant, the editing, research and detail you put in are outstanding keep them coming. 👍 Do you not have a buy me a beer or a donate to the channel link as you deserve it👌.
Thanks a lot judd. No I don’t mate. I wouldn’t take a penny off anyone. I’d feel like a criminal. People enjoying the videos are all more than enough, but thanks a lot! Much appreciated 👍🏼🍺
Brilliant film. If you go back please visit the Riley Graves just outside the village. The Riley Graves are the open graves of the the Hancock family, most of whom died during the outbreak of plague in Eyam. In the space of a week farmer Elizabeth Hancock lost her husband and 6 children to the plague. Tragically, Elizabeth had to bury her family herself, Elizabeth carried and buried them on the hill. It is also thought that the infection reached her family through a villagers body she helped to bury
Loved watching this, thank you! My grandma was from Eyam so visited loads of times and know the story of the plague well but still very interesting and wonderful watch.
Just up the road from me is the little village of Napier. The grave yard has many 1912 graves - also what looks like whole families. Wiped out by Spanish Flu. Nowhere near the magnitude of this village's loss, but sad nonetheless.
I was born and bred and lived all my life in Eyam growing up with the plague story and have ancestors that can be traced back to those times .You have done there story proud Antony we really enjoyed the video (so did Tilly the dog😉) There is still a lot you didn't manage to film a fair few more cottages where people died also Mompessons Well ,Riley Graves,Humprey Merilles grave etc and more stories and sub plots to be told so we hope you come back again soon (If you need a local to show you where these places are please let me know)
Thanks so much and I’m really glad you and Tilly enjoyed the video! I was cut for time as I needed to get it out for Halloween and could have added a lot more. But I definitely be back to do another take on Eyam or eem 😁 you live in a beautiful place and I have nothing but respect for what the village did for the rest of humanity. Thanks so much for the kind words 👍🏼 🐶
Thank you for this little history lesson we learned in the 60s about it at school it's a shame they no longer teach English history Did you know while this was going on, on the hillside above the village lead miners were toiling away in the ancient mines around Eyam working in rags with only candles for light.
Really enjoyed your tour around Eyam, I used to visit here a lot when I lived in Manchester, we used to have picnics etc, its been over 40 years now, the trees have grown some. Very special place with lots of lovely memories, such a sad history but one well worth telling. Thanks for the memories!
I saw my first ghost in farmhouse in Eyam. We went there on a karate training excercise that my dad and his friend ran. Me and my dad "camped out" in the front room in front of a roaring fire. After making nice colours in the flames from burning copper, we all went to sleep. Just me and my dad in the living room, and at about 3am, I woke to see an old man in a chair near the fire. He looked at me, I smiled and went back to sleep. I asked about him the morning after but there was nobody with us that looked like that! Eyam will always hold a dear place in my heart.
Great video Anthony. The whole town of Eyam is one big history lesson on the plague. Compared to this town's lockdown, covid was a walk in the park. It is so unreal to see the graves in the backyards and along the road like these. Maybe it is normal in the UK, but I have never seen anything like that out here in the US. It must have been an eerie scary feeling being in lockdown in that town, having to bury your loved ones, no one on the streets, nothing to occupy your time except the wondering if you are going to be the next victim. When I lived in Diamond Bar, CA in the 1980's there was park my friends and I used to go to where it was found that the squirrels had fleas carrying the Bubonic Plague. The county shut down the park for over 5 years, until they determined that it was safe again. Weird to think that after hundreds of years the Black Death is still out there.
Thanks Paul. It’s very eerie around the village at times and I bet at night the atmosphere changes again. It’s not normal for people to be buried in this way in the uk, quite rare in fact. I suppose it was just as much as a shock for me as it was for you. I suppose they represent a moment in time that doing such a thing was the only solution. Taking nothing away from the place because it’s absolutely beautiful, but I’ve never been somewhere that has a vibe like Eyam. Thanks so much for watching buddy! Take care 👍🏼
It's really encouraging to see a young man like yourself getting interested in local history. Too many channels have older people like myself trying to keep history alive! You should really think about approaching some of the local schools, especially the high school age bracket, to give them some history talks.
@@neilcook9088 thank you so much Neil. Thats a very kind thing of you to say. I have been approached a few time but don’t seem to have the confidence really. Think this is why I present it over UA-cam lol. Maybe in the future. Thanks once again mate
What brave & courageous people they were to be thinking of others before themselves. So moving to listen to and very sensitively handled ❤️ great video ❤️
Hi Ant. Fantastic as always. Great video. I watched your live while you were in the village & couldn't wait to see the finished thing 😊 absolutely worth the wait & hasn't disappointed!!👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻 x
Wow just wow! Another fantastic video and very educational. Your videos are always amazing. Thank you for all the research you put in to this. You are very talented. Keep up the awesome work you do! Love from🇺🇸
Fantastic powerful video…great research, filming and editing..loved this one so picturesque a stunning village…the history brought back to life well done DM🐒..can’t wait for the next one 👍
Excellent video. It's hard to grasp the enormity of what Revd. Mompesson asked of the villagers in standing with him in defending the country from the most terrible of deaths. As I understand, he was only a young man, too.
Bloody hell Ant... Your videos get better and better each time, considering you do all your own editing etc....... Wow you are soooo talented, more than you know! Keep up this fantastic work love x
Thanks so much Sheridan. I was a struggle to get this out in time for Halloween, but needed to be done. I’d have liked it to be longer but cut for time really. Thanks for the kind words
By gum.lad ya put some effort into that, great vid..I've known about the Eyam plague but never knew how it started. The stories about the plague doctor and the boundary stone are fantastic...Well done Ant..brilliant 👏👏
@karenJackson-he2ci I've never seen it lol mind you I'm usually running behind the dogs. I'm pretty sure there wasn't one a few years back. We had to go elsewhere for a bottle of water and head back.
Loved it ant. You really take the viewer straight bang into the heart of the story. It really was a reminder to us all, what we all went through with the pandemic
Hi Ant, these people were way ahead of their time in their thinking, when we know what we know now about how desease spreads, they didn't know that, and it must have been so tempting to think about leaving the place, it took some real courage to stay put and await your fate, especially as a mum seeing all your kids die one by one, can't imagine what that felt like, and to put their money in vinegar so as not to spread the desease, that was real forward thinking, and for everyone in the village to agree to this is amazing, because there will always be someone who thinks I'm not staying here to die!, this village has got amazing atmosphere, makes you wonder how many houses are haunted, thanks for going back to Eyam Ant this was really interesting, your vlogs are really good xxx
Thanks "young un " another great video. Thanks for sharing 👍. ( your probably out "Trick or Treating " now. 😂😂). Take care and god bless you and your family. 👍👍
I'm a bit late to comment but, you really do tell a fantastic story! The way you set the atmosphere is brilliant. You've got a real gift, I love it. I just wish that you had a good few naughts behind your subscribers! Looking forward to your next documentary. Thanks Ant. xxx
And this is exactly why i subscribed absolutely fantastic, everything about these videos are amazing, keep up the top notch videos ant I've enjoyed every single one.
Great Video as ever pal. My Dad took me, my Mum and Sister there as a child and it will always be with me. I think the villagers pronounce the place Eeem. Mompesson was a hero.
Thanks Anthony....very sad. Great story telling as usual. When you consider how few people there were in the world back then, such numbers dying would have had far more impact. When I was born in 1955 the world population was around 3 billion, it's 8 billion now and climbing fast. If we don't blow ourselves up first, I guess its only a matter of time before something similar to this happens again. And on that happy note I'll wish you all the best mate. 😂
Another blockbuster ant, just echoing other peoples comments in the chat.i know what work you put in to potray this story on such a pretty village.great work ant as always 👊👊
Brilliant video buddy. Love the fact the village have embraced the past and you can see the history at each house. Interesting to see the plague stone, there's one of those on Midgley Moors.
Oh really ! I never knew that. Thanks for the comment mate. There’s a lot I left out too but I was cut for time really. Hoping to go back again one day and include the things I kept out 👍🏼
I can tell you a very similar thing happened in Suffolk. In Needham Market, plague swept the town from 1663 to 1665, and to prevent the spread of disease, the town was chained shut at each end. Villagers from Stowmarket left baskets of food at the chains.
My brother put me on to your videos. They are all so well researched and executed. You have areal talent, keep going. I had a channel with my wife and kids for a few years, we said we would stop when they wanted to, when the teenage years came that was it. I am from Manchester myself, from Davyhulme near the stinky sewage works and Trafford centre. Have so many fond memories of towns and villages around Manchester, I love learning of the history. I am going to put the word about your channel with my old Mancunian mates and family.
Thank so much Craig and sorry for the late reply, I've been really busy lately. Really glad you are enjoying the content, and thanks so putting in a good word for me. I really do appreciate it. New video coming soon! take care pal.
Another fantastic video Lad, your presentation, commentary and info is sooooooo good, Thankyou for doing these vids, I have learnt so much watching you. Hope dads ok xx
Amazing video. I can pick up the spooky vibe of this place just from the vid. It must have been so weird at the end with so few left. I read somewhere, that with so many dead at the end of this catastrophe, that the simple labourer could command a good days' pay for his graft and simply left the old landowner and his old feudal ways behind in search of opportunities elsewhere.
Thanks a lot David. That place really does hold something unique in respect to atmosphere and energy. You can feel the history when walking around the village. Thanks so much for watching mate
Once again DM what an interesting sad story indeed. Going back many many years, as you say they weren't so clued up with such outbreaks as they are today. Actually very similar to what we had to endure with the covid outbreak. Thanks again, you brought this back to life for us😢
Halloween then all saints day and day of the dead a three day event,so appropriate the deceased remember in that cemetery we must never forget those that go before us ,nice video great thank you😮was a bit scary plague story 😮
Ant the effort you put into research and editing is so blummin good,have you ever thought about sending some of your work to any history channels, more people should be made aware of your work its so interesting,looking forward to your next premier....
First time I visited Eyam I was 12 , and I felt the sorrow then , it’s a beautiful place , but there is a really odd feeling about the place , there’s ledger in the church which records all the deaths , anyone can view it, another cracking g video thank you ant ,
@@juliemyers8869 thanks so much Julie and I echo your words. It really does have an atmosphere all of its own. Almost felt like the ex villagers were watching what I was doing. Very eerie but so beautiful too
@@daftmonkey7296 if your looking for something spooky go to the Bulli’th thorn pub , just through Buxton , originally 11th century coaching in , very haunted , great history
Good stuff I used to live in Eyam, it is a lovely place it certainly was hit by tragedy, I think you may be interested to know there is a Murder stone marker of an old Eyam resident who was Murdered on his way back from Manchester by three people, one of whom was never apprehended I think you will enjoy the research ATB.👍its on the high road from Disley to Whally Bridge the marker stone that is.
I remember finding out about this… what heroes they were, simply to sacrifice themselves and their comfort in their final days to protect those nearby. Unsung heroes 💜
Just a historical note- ring of roses nursery rhyme is likely unrelated although it’s one theory. Also the cloth from London was more than likely riddled with infected human lice rather than rats fleas. Not that that’s crucial to the story but still
Another cracking video Ant, the editing, research and detail you put in are outstanding keep them coming. 👍 Do you not have a buy me a beer or a donate to the channel link as you deserve it👌.
Thanks a lot judd. No I don’t mate. I wouldn’t take a penny off anyone. I’d feel like a criminal. People enjoying the videos are all more than enough, but thanks a lot! Much appreciated 👍🏼🍺
@Juddx1977 ... I've nagged him. I feel guilty watching his videos at no cost. But I nag no more, he obviously has his reasons. ❣
Eyam is a beautiful place and has a fascinating history on the plague been several times

Thanks a lot mate! Yeah is that the William wood Murder stone? If so I have plans to film it soon! Hopefully one you’ll enjoy 👍🏼
Done with professionalism and compassion as always.

Thank David! Much appreciated 👍🏼
I’m amazed they didn’t bury the dead in plague pits..
One patch of land was a mass burial, but I think they built houses on it 🫣

I remember finding out about this… what heroes they were, simply to sacrifice themselves and their comfort in their final days to protect those nearby. Unsung heroes 💜
Just a historical note- ring of roses nursery rhyme is likely unrelated although it’s one theory. Also the cloth from London was more than likely riddled with infected human lice rather than rats fleas. Not that that’s crucial to the story but still
Loved this liked and subscribed.great job
