1 Day as a Tourist in Maldon, Essex, England | UK Travel Vlog
Welcome all to my brand new UK Travel vlog, 1 Day as a Tourist in Maldon!
Join me as I explore the nooks and crannies of this fantastic Essex Town, from the brilliant locals to the rich history.
Starting at the old Maldon Railway I take you on a journey uncovering the history of the great battle of Maldon between the Saxons and the Vikings. From there I accost some local ladies down a back street to talk about the famous Fat Man of Maldon and show you where he is buried. After popping in to the brilliant woof and co I take you around Hythe Quay and Promenade park for a museum tour and to meet some proper Maldon characters!
Let's Go!
And here's some information on our sponsor for this video, Woof and Co:
At Woof & Co. we try to be different from your regular pet store and believe dogs should be fed high quality food. After all they are family members and as much as we all love a fast food takeaway occasionally, you wouldn’t feed your child it everyday, so why should your dog be any different? We stock a wide range of natural, healthy treats, from our popular sausage bites to hairy deer legs. Products like our sausage bites are sold loose by weight so you can try as many or as little as you want and all of our other natural treats are sold individually so you can create your own tasty selection for your dog.
We love having dogs come in store and visit us and customers are welcome to try on any of our trendy coats, collars and harnesses on their dog.
We’re open 7 days a week and you can purchase online too on our website.
Why not make a day out of it to come visit us with so many high street shops and food establishments being dog friendly and the beautiful Maldon Promenade is a fun place to go for both children and dogs.

Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed it Flappy Goose!
I lived in Maldon for 9 years. Lovely town.
God Save The King. Long Live The King. 👑⚔️🇬🇧🏰
Great video. The prom has really changed, spent many a happy hour swimming in the lake. It used to cost around 12.5pence for a season ticket for the changing rooms in the mid 70’s. Best cheese and onion rolls at the bus station cafe
That was fantastic thanks mate

Hi Adam, you inspired me & my family-of-4 to spend a day in Maldon, and it was absolutely brilliant! What's more, we'll be back because we found one day was not enough!😄

Maldon is my local town and you've managed to show me some things I've never seen! Well done, I'm binge watching you now. It's so nice to see Essex shown in such a positive light and the reason Essex people are so happy. (Unless they're trying to afford a house that is:) Well done.

The establishment and trying to flood Essex with migrants to get rid of the whites there
My Mum & 1of her sisters embroidered some of the Embroiderey shown on here. They lived in Maldon up to the war. They were asked to take part as skilled embroiderers. As a child I used to travel to Maldon with Mum & my brothers. We went by train from Braintree (via Witham)- My Grandad was a train driver who lived with his family in a house near the railway line in Wantz Rd. We loved going to the Lake & walking along the ‘prom’.

Mate you need to do Canvey Island! The lobster smack pub famously quoted in a Charles Dickens book. The band Dr Feelgood, the Canvey flood etc... So much to talk about

My sister and mum live there. My nephew works for Maldon Salt.
It may not be much if you're not into gameshows but Maldon, Essex was the filming location of the 2003 BBC series "The Murder Game" which they used the name Blackwater as the River Blackwater passed through it.
Great video! Looking forward to Winchester ;)

Great pie and mash shop in Maldon 👍
Should have gone to the maldon war museum, down the road from the station. Larges gun collection in the uk. The building is like a tardis
Wish I could visit. My family came from Essex to America during colonial times. I'd be nice to see where we came from not sure what city or town exactly but that's the extent of my knowledge.
Awesome
I don't have great memories of Maldon, my dads family lived there and we used to visit once in a while, my brother and I were small kids and we were bored shitless, the adults used to sit around in the kitchen talking while my brother and I would be clockwatching waiting to go back home to sunny Hertfordshire.

Sounds like it wasn’t Maldon you had poor memories of, it was the experience you had with your family, so you’ve associated those negative experiences with Maldon. You should pop back with fresh eyes, and create new memories 👌🏼

@@ADayintheUK I intend to at some point, the time period I'm remembering is the 70s back when most places were terrible. The demographics there seem to have changed, I remember that side of the family having an almost Suffolk accent, the older ones especially, in your video I'm hearing more London than anything else.
Yeah~very uunusual recording! see you later~
