What a great video Damien, you know your history and speak with a true affection for Northumberland . Thanks for showing us what is truly Gods country.
Loved this video. We’re coming to this part of the country in a couple of weeks. Can’t wait. Your enthusiasm and knowledge is infectious. I especially like the bit where you’re climbing the tower and looking at all the windows in detail. I love old buildings but I’m not sure I’d be able to climb them like that! Thanks!
Breath taking. I'm in Wales, and we have a lot of stunning countryside and heritage to explore here, but I forget that the rest of Britain is also full of similar, sometimes more beautiful places to visit. Great vid.
Brilliant like. Very interesting and stuff I never knew about. Loved the drone over the stone circle. I’m wounded you found roughting linn. I’ve been searching for years. Lol. I’ll not take my chair when there’s crags like. Nature’s chairs them. Great video. Loved it. Shouldn’t dee the horns like 🤘
The waterfall is tricky to find but if you walk down the path from the car and look for any of the small streams on the left then follow down to the main river then walk upstream its not far. Loads of history in that area its lovely, ATB, 🤘🤘🤘
Excellent i'm glad this popped up in my to watch list, thank you for sharing all these interesting and beautiful spots in amazing Northumberland. Great job. happy camping mate.
Great video cheers. Am due to be spending five days in Northumberland in a couple of weeks, on a budget, so will check out a couple of these places. Great stuff.
What a cracking video Damian we live in an amazing area and to be honest iv not been there you are showing some great places of Northumberland to everyone so thanks for taking us with you and sharing your knowledge great channel atb jimmy 😎 😎
It looked locked when I was there but the chain became easily undone so was lucky to get in and take a peek. What impressed me was the thickness of the walls, very sturdy looking. Cameras are a good thing if it protects against vandals
WOW, what a stunning video and really interesting. Northumberland is such an amazing place with so many gems and sites. My sister in-law lives in Cambo, we love visiting, I really like Simonside its beautiful. It was great to meet you at the Northeast bushcraft meet, we shared a drop of wine. Thanks for sharing great vid take care Atb Garry.
This is my favourite of your videos for sure. Maybe because I'm very local to Hepburn woods, you did us proud. Can't believe you packed that all into one day. You're a machine. Amazing footage thank you for sharing. 💗🥾
Y. I man you have some beautiful locations in Northumberland like. Those stone calving are amazing were the picts around that part of the world in the border lands my family are from that part of the world.
Cracking vid,nice to see you taking to places like these,am on my holidays in spain,its too hot and what a belta way to chill with an ice cold pint in the shade catching up with your latest upload,cheers thouroughly enjoyed it as always
Good stuff Sir. When I was on holiday in Northumberland (or Bernicia) about 12 years ago, I also went to see the Duddo stones, and the rock art on Doddington moor.
Fantastic video mate, you and The 12th Sagittarian (Mick) make some excellent videos incorporating history , nature , and wild camping, who could ask for more. (and aye a saw the horns) lol
Wonderful video of our home county Damian. So many places of interest to visit and see. I was slightly disappointed with Roughting Linn though when I first went, I thought it didn't live up to it's reputation though the cup and ring area more than made up for it. Great video you would make a fantastic TV presenter. Atb. Mick.
Thanks for the kind words Mick, I do lots of takes and editing till I get things right. I make notes of things I want to say and use my own words. I've tried talking from a script and doesn't sound right. Watching channels like yours inspired me to add a bit of history as wild camping on its own gets a bit repetative after a while. There is so much history in that area its amazing. ATB, Damian.
Goes to show the heritage of the followers of ese and how short Christianity has been on our shores. Amazing. Well done mate. Great effort. Cheers Moose.
Awesome video.......great to see someone who truly appteciates this island instead of just showing off how extreme they are by sleeping in a bin liner and drinking their own piss;) Quick Question!?......do you make your own 'buddy burners'? And if so have you done a demo video for it?
Thanks, I make my own buddy burners and dont have a video showing how but I make them the same way as in this link. ua-cam.com/video/4HTPKXgfNzY/v-deo.html
Damian, got a couple of places you might like, Wild camped up rothley cragg last year, rothley castle not far away. Also near me, just up from cresswell pele tower is an underground shelter with a wood good for a wild camp close by, hope you find it!!
Absolutely brilliant Damien, a well interesting video. I should get out and do a bit of wild camping.....I know it makes sense. Especially with views like that. Just a bit difficult with a knee injury though lol. Keep your vids coming bud cos they keep me going whilst I'm waiting for my knee op.
Thouroughly enjoyed this.....great wee docu!..top photography!....Although it’s great to film a walk,it’s always very enjoyable to listen to the local history...see that ‘footprint’ clip,that’s a lineage thing...google ‘Dunadd ‘.....go to Orkney....they’ll take you away in straightjacket!!!!....many thanks for sharing....ATB Tommy
Camping in the countryside is something people should try at least once in their lives. Modern living detaches us from our ancient past. Theres nothing better than sitting next to a warm fire in the dark, looking up at the stars and listening to the sounds of night, wondering what wild animals are close by, ATB
Brilliant mate.........love the history of our local places. they all have a tale to tell. Great drone flying....looks like your drone is pretty big. I use the yuneec breeze...nice and compact i can fit in my bag. Me and the lads were up that way doing blawierei and the cateran hole last year.love the place. ive sent you a pm damian....just a query. Atb.....mick
I have a Phontom 3 Professional, wish I had something more compact like a Mavic Pro but got the drone cheap when they brought out the Phantom 4. I find flying stressful as I'm never sure if it will come back in one piece or if it will just fly away. For me its a tool for making videos and get more of a buzz from seeing it safely land and looking at the footage on me PC. There are some great places to visit in that area and will be making more videos from there soon. Thanks for your comment Mick, ATB
Another brilliant vid mate :). Have you thought about trying a sneaky lil stealth camp down on the Norfolk coast? Just did the Norfolk coast path and it was brilliant! Plenty of nice wild camping spots, especially among the dunes!
No I haven't been to Norfolk, there are thousands of miles of coastline around Britain so we are very lucky in this country. Its not difficult to find a good wild camping spot. Thanks for your comment.
Really interesting stuff. I'm off to Cumbria next week. The site were staying at has a couple of stone circles nearby I will be doing a video. On the subject of iron age hill forts I have a very impressive one on my doorstep. Penshaw Hill is actually one of the largest triple rampart forts in northern England. Bet not many people realise that fact. Keep these video's coming. ATB Steve
Steves Outdoors NE did you know Cumbria and Cumberland are so-called because the people there were The Cymru......native Britons the same as the Welsh. All Native Britons were referred to as Welsh including the Cumbrians and Cornish right up until after the middle ages. Penshaw Hill bears the mark of the original British tongue. Pen means mountain top in Welsh, it's the same word as the Scottish Ben...as in Ben Nevis.
Lovely jubbly, Especially the drone shots, still would have been nice to see a time-lapes video of the stars at night but still thumbs up from me. ( There called singing stones, because it's where Simon Cowell come to take a shit, honestly a local leprechaun told me.)
Nice vid , great place. I found the better you want to make the videos the more equipment you start to carry and eventually is does get heavy or awkward. The price to pay for perfection lol.
I read somewhere years ago regarding the horse statue & rider. A raised leg signifies the rider died in battle. I'm not sure to be honest. Worth researching I suppose.
The statue had a lot of controvacy surrounding it, here is some info regarding that, " Hugh GOUGH The statue has had a troubled history. At the time of his death in 1869, Gough's friends felt that since he was born in Co. Limmerick and, when not on military service, had always lived in his native land, a statue on a prominent site in Dublin was appropriate, at either Carlisle Bridge, Foster Place or Westmoreland Road. However, the Dublin Corporation was reluctant to commemorate a servant of the empire who had gained the nickname the 'Hammer of the Sikhs', and vetoed each of these suggestions. Year of creation:1880 Rider(s):Hugh Gough (1779 -1869), 1st Viscount Gough was a British Army officer. He is said to have commanded in more general actions than any other British officer of the 19th century except the Duke of Wellington. He was made Field Marshal in 1862.Sculptor(s):John Henry/Brock Foley This statue received much abuse before its demise, losing its head and sword in 1944 (found back in the River Liffey) and a rear leg in 1956. It was finally blown off its pedestal in 1957. The unveiling of this doomed statue in 1878 by his grandfather turned out to be the earliest memory of Winston Churchill as he recalls in his autobiographical work ‘My early life 1874-1904’. In 1988 the remains of the statue came into the possession of a distant relative of Gough, who had this fine piece of art restored and re-erected in 1990 near Chillingham castle in the UK.
I park the car at NT 98364 36665 then follow the public footpath 200m NW to the stream and the waterfall is a few meters further along the stream. Its been a while since I've been and looking at the map got confused with a waterfall further south, also called Roughting Linn at NU 08325 28255 but isn't the same place
Good vid Mate, we have some ancient stone work here in New Zealand aswell, but our govt does not want to know about it because it does not fit there there bullshit spin on our history, Its a shame alot of your ancient forests are gone, what a site they would have been.
You are right, if the history doesn't fit their narrative or career's built on false information then they ignore the evidence. There are rectangular megalithic stone blocks in Australia weighing hundreds of tons they try to say is natural. The ancients were much more advanced than we give them credit for. Just look at Gobekli Tepe, 12,000 years old monuments when the people were supposed to be hunter gatherer's pre occupied with trying to find food and survive rather than posessing advanced building skills.
How about finding one wild edible per trip & adding it to your meal....right now jack by the hedge is a great addition...few early lime leaves or bracken tops...just an addition what's this videos extra munch going to be.?
I love when you do historical areas. Who are the guys lazing around the stones? Chillingham Castle, according to their website, is "Britain's most-haunted castle." And apparently you can book accommodations there. That castle would be a great next video. :) Here's a link to their site: chillingham-castle.com I hate to see greenery growing all over the ruins like at Hepburn Bastle because it eventually destroys it. I wish whoever takes care of these areas would clear out the brush so they'll last longer and you can see more details. You really fine awesome places to camp.
Sadly I do know bud, i'm a professional historian and its places like this that give me a headache when I have to explain the actual history of the place to people who have been there and think what the owners have told them is gospel... Chillingham's not on its own, by far, in that regard.
Tower houses are a type of defensible house characteristic of the borderlands of England and Scotland, permanently occupied by the wealthier or aristocratic members of society. In times of war or unrest, it could have been used as a gail, if it can keep people out, it can keep people in. The lord would have used it as a power center to control the peasants.
When it comes to Chillingham Castle you need to take its history with a pinch of salt as the current owners have put out so much bullshit about the place to get gullible folk in it is unbelievable... haunted yes, magnificent yes, owners making up the history, sadly yes.
I've heard its haunted but never really researched the place. I can understand the owners hyping up the place to get people in but there is so much history and interest in old castles they don't really need to. ATB
Couldn't agree more... history is amazing enough as it is without having to change it or spruce it up to get the punters in... keep the cracking video's coming bud :)
Cracking video and some beautiful scenery too. I love living in Northumberland and you highlighted some really interesting sites there.
Groovy.

Hepburn Bastile has been shored up and has security cameras now! Really enjoyed this video, as a local, it’s great to see another’s take on things.
It looked locked when I was there but the chain became easily undone so was lucky to get in and take a peek. What impressed me was the thickness of the walls, very sturdy looking. Cameras are a good thing if it protects against vandals

A great place to see and well presented . You were lucky you didn't destroy it completely by setting it on fire. Disturbing.
I bet if you did one video a week with the lovely views y op u show us and the great footage your subs would go throw the roof
Damien I know where Roughting Linn is! But could never find it! How do I get there from the car track?
I park the car at NT 98364 36665 then follow the public footpath 200m NW to the stream and the waterfall is a few meters further along the stream. Its been a while since I've been and looking at the map got confused with a waterfall further south, also called Roughting Linn at NU 08325 28255 but isn't the same place
If you park in the layby then follow the signpost to Routin Lynn farm you are on the right track. Routin Lynn waterfall is also called Roughting Linn
03:42 that stone on the right looks like a Womble, I kid you not!
Great video, but I missed the informations where exactly the photos are made. Northumberland is wide.
The location is in Duddo, grid ref: NT 93057 43708
It would have been very mystical but you would have had a bloody bad back lugging those rocks around mate
Nice one. Your camera lens is a bit noisy!
You lucky bastard!
Good vid Mate, we have some ancient stone work here in New Zealand aswell, but our govt does not want to know about it because it does not fit there there bullshit spin on our history, Its a shame alot of your ancient forests are gone, what a site they would have been.

How about finding one wild edible per trip & adding it to your meal....right now jack by the hedge is a great addition...few early lime leaves or bracken tops...just an addition what's this videos extra munch going to be.?
so the circles in the stones. mabye they could be the circle of life, a very old symbol!

Need to do more digging for the genuine history of Chillingham... the owners bullshit stories are ridiculous.
They have to make the money from the tourists, don't you know.
Sadly I do know bud, i'm a professional historian and its places like this that give me a headache when I have to explain the actual history of the place to people who have been there and think what the owners have told them is gospel... Chillingham's not on its own, by far, in that regard.
