    Thank you! Great work on the photography and research, as ever! I enjoyed the nostalgia it aroused. My only criticism was the quietness of your narration this time around. Also, the reversing birds at 04:28 made me chuckle!

      Hi there! Thanks a lot for your comment, I really appreciate it 😊 I just noticed that reversing bird! I don't know how I missed that during my last edit haha! And yes I was trying out a different mic but I'm going to go back to my original one :)

    Great video Alex. It’s a pity we lost so much of the walls but at least you’ve recorded what’s left for everyone to see

      Thank you, I appreciate that 😊 and yes it is a shame. I'd have loved Norwich to still have at least one gatehouse!

    Great to get some local knowledge and history. My ancestors originated from the area and as I live so very far away now I appreciate your videos and commentary. Thanks

      My pleasure! And yes I am a local so I visit these ruins very often.

    Great video Alex - love the old Norwich city walls - visit them often - especially the Carrow Hill section - beautiful there - like a lost world 👌🏻

    That was detailed and I found that interesting. I didn't know that Norwich could boast a bigger city wall than London in its day. I was walking like a tourist around the city this week. Showing my other half (non Norfolk) why I love Norwich as much as I do.

      Glad you enjoyed! It's very easy to be so proud of Norwich's rich history and heritage when you are a local. Such an easy city to fall in love with!

    Really enjoyed this as i live near Norwich.. im familiar with many of the areas you filmed... The volume of the video is very low though? dont know if its just me.

      Yes I was trying out a new mic but I'll be going back to my original one, but thanks a lot I really appreciate that 😊😊

    Could you recommend or perhaps create some content on the Hundred Years War?

    • @AlexTheHistoryGuy
      @AlexTheHistoryGuy  2 роки тому

      Yes I can! TheHistorySquad has some amazing videos on he Hundred Years War. Especially from an archers perspective. I highly recommend checking out his channel.

    we learnt that the bricks used in places were from previous roman buildings

    was really looking forward to watching this, but, although the music is loud, the commentary is barely audible.

      I am currently in the works of remaking some of my older videos now that I have more professional equipment so stay tuned :)
