Electrical power cables are buried underground FYI. 😂

6:36 I am not 100% but if i recall those are phone cables not electricity. at least in the 80's and 90's most phone lines were above ground (on telephone poles like the one in this video) and electricity was underground. Now this one could be different, but the term "telephone pole" is from this kind of thing.

Thank you for posting. My dad lived in Gargrave during the war years when my grandparents ran the Swan Inn, featured in your video. He went back there a couple of times in his final years and it was obvious he had very happy memories of the place, attending Keighley Grammar School when he wasn't enjoying life in the pub or jumping into the river from the nearby bridge in summer. The Landlady of the Swan was good enough to let me and him have a room by room tour the last time we were there.

It was started at the Yorkshire end and actually connected to the Humber and Hull first via the Calder Navigation. It predates most of the Lancashire cotton mills, but did link in to existing canals canals on the Lancashire side and helped Liverpool become the bigger port.

I hope you made it to the cafe it's really nice we would cycle to them all the time, the cheese toasties are the best. Btw those aren't electricity lines, all that is underground now. They were phone cabels.

I was due to have an interview in Skipton so afterwards went to have a look at Gargave. Have a nice cream tea in a quaint little tea shop.

The electricity pole you pointed out is actually a telegraph pole distributing phone lines to the surrounding premises. The amount of electricity produced is so small as to be utterly harmless,

Very enjoyable, thanks. Quite a culture clash!

Love this so much! You’re so right (especially at 12:55) - so much of what you’re looking at and singling out as noteworthy seems so incredibly ordinary, everyday and, well yes, ‘boring’ to most of us who live here; but just seeing how genuinely enthused and happy you are to see these things really serves to remind us of just how lucky we are and how much of our history and culture we completely take for granted. So, for example, yes, medieval churches are “ten a penny” in the UK, and we really need to appreciate them more. Yes, I guess semi-detached houses are kind of weird when you stop to think about them - just never stopped to think about them until you pointed it out! And yes, C18th canals and locks, C19th schoolhouses converted into apartments, multiple pubs in tiny villages, no-nonsense street-naming, ‘supermarkets’ that are very far from being ‘super,’ old-style red phone boxes that still work!...they all seem so ‘normal’ and unremarkable until someone points them out and says “Wow, look at that! Isn’t that cool?” (Or “weird” or “funny”). So, thank you! Your enthusiasm gave me a little warm glow of pride in and affection for my country (and that’s a serious rarity!) I’m really glad you enjoyed and appreciated all these ‘little’ things. (Although, I would urge you to explore British tv a lot more - honestly, you’ve no idea what you’re missing!) Btw, I haven’t read any of the other comments that have been left, so I’m sure MANY people have probably already told you this, but the weird, prickly tree is a monkey puzzle tree. Don’t quote me on the history (I haven’t checked!), but they’re not native to the UK, and I suspect they were probably brought over here sometime during the period of the great landscape gardeners of the C18-19th who created many of the impressive grounds you’ll see at so many stately homes, and that they got disseminated throughout the country from then on. They’re still a little bit of a rarity to come across, though. They always fascinated me as a kid (so exotic and out of place in the UK), so I understand your curiosity about them! Thanks again - really great video! 😊

On the Kennet & Avon Canal there is a lock system with 29 locks rising 237 feet in a single ladder called the Caen Hill Locks.

In the river they aren't stepping stones. They are a simple weir designed to retain water back during drought periods.

When I think of a typical English village, it's one off the beaten track and not cut in two by a major road going through it as there's an awful lot of traffic there. It's still obviously a village because of the facilities are typical of a small settlement. Nice watch, thanks

We have a lot of houses like the ones you described, they are called semi-detached houses. Many of the great conurbations built throughout the country in the 1920's & 1930's were built in this style. The tree is what we usually know as a Monkey Puzzle Tree, I think it is a species of Cypress. When you get a group of locks on a section of canal they are called a flight of locks. What you pointed out as being an electric pole was, in fact, a telegraph pole for phone lines. I like the description 'squidgy breads' !

The comment on the Leeds Liverpool Canal implied that it’s only purpose was to get Gargrave limestone to Liverpool. Of course the Leeds to Liverpool Canal was a main means of transportation in the days when other means of getting heavy loads across country did not exist. Remarkably the canal crosses the Pennine Hills, hence the very large number of locks in the system. With the coming of railways, the canal system began to lose its importance. Now the canal is mainly used for recreational purposes.

Also the monkey puzzle tree you're looking at is a interesting case of convergent evolution. The Monkey puzzle is basically the new world's version of the pine tree.

hello you 2, as a kid I was told they were called monkey trees because monkeys could not climb them. also if you were the first person to see a monkey tree you could pinch the person beside you and say ( pinches on a monkey tree no pinches back ) Thanks for the memory.
