All the streets ending in "gate" have nothing to do with gates in a city wall, but stem from the Viking word "Gata" which means "street". This shows the strong Scandinavian influence in this part of England.

my home town thank you for filming there so much history my grandad used to look after the gardens in the castle grounds back in the 40s and 50s, the castle is stunning at night from the riverside as its lit up. love your walks it gives us someware to go and visit.

@@GimbalWalkTV you did a fantastic job, one little bit of interest regarding the church, there is a hole in the spire it's said was made by a cannon ball fired up on beacon hill about a mile away, and also the tunnels that run under ground around the town thought to have been used for smuggling. Yes you did it justice look forward to your next walk.

Love Newark, it was the first place I lived when I moved up to the East Midlands

Great video didn't realize Newark had so many old buildings and the walk around the gardens and castle and river where great will have to make time to visit sometime in the near future

I live in Newark on Trent!! I've never seen this before 🤣 Newark is my favourite place Edit: My mum works at Barclays with the head in the wall ❤️

That was a lovely video & thank you for taking the time to do it. I think Newark on Trent is a place I'd enjoy visiting, especially in Autumn.

My home for 8 years ❤ Now im back in my country in Czech Republic, but i will be back, love Newark bit boring, but clean and quite place to live with kids ❤❤

Newark is lovely to visit one day. I so love. Watching your walks. Thank you sharing walks with us all.

I lived in Newark for like 30 years, and its always cool to go and have a walk round every now and again. Cool video

I live in Newark! It's very odd to see someone appreciating everything I walk past everyday haha. And I never realised how clean Newark looks! It is a shame the Castle Curtain Wall is under going repairs on your visit. Typically non of the barriers are there and you can sit and eat a sandwich or something in the castle windows looking over the river... We got married in the castle gardens. Definitely a great place, and free to visit too! Thanks for the video

It was great for my wife to see Newark again she used to go every Saturday with her friends from Mansfield ,she has not been back for 35yrs with her coming to Hereford to live then us moving to the TRNC North Cyprus.

My brother in law and me used to go fishing on the Trent back in the late 1960's and early 70's. where he worked had a fishing club and every week on a Sunday they hired a minibus to take the club to various places to fish. The Trent was one of the favourites, when you walked past the Italian restaurant, Zizzi, the road by the side, The Wharf where the Pizza Express building is used to be a transport cafe and whenever we were going to Newark we always stopped there for breakfast. Not been back there in years. Nice walk, lots of history will have to go back and have a proper look around.

Fantastic video, thank you for showing it.

Hey I'm from Newark and it's good to hear nice things about Newark

I live here yet still thoroughly enjoyed your presentation. Hopefully it will tempt more visitors as it's a lovely town with a decent amount of shops and a good market several times a week, and a wealth of great coffee shops and food. For those with campervans or caravans there are some great campsites too. Well worth a visit. Shame the castle wall was fenced off on your visit, this is not usually the case. So no great camera shots from the "windows" across the park and river. Great place to sit with a sandwich etc and enjoy the peacefulness.

Yes pity it was fenced off, but it was for safety because of the fear of falling masonry, still all gone now

I live quite close to Newark. It is a beautiful town, but dying because of the horrendous traffic which puts people off coming to the town. Don't be fooled by what is shown on the film. It can take half an hour to get through what is a small town sometimes. Businesses are suffering, and more and more are closing every week, or so it seems. Closing the M&S branch was a big blow. Agree Koinonia is a great place for an Indian. The Zizzi restaurant you showed has in fact closed down, and the building has been empty for quite a while.

Unfortunately I never had the privilege visiting Newark. I love the castle so close to town. I 'm a huge fan of all castles. This one is a beauty. The walk towards the park with the crunchy leaves under your trackers was discernible on the video! I love autumn too. The reflection of their fall colours on the water is so beautiful. I've never seen so many weeping willows together in England before. I always gasped when I would see one of my favourite trees! Thanks for this lovely walk, and now i can feel that I can tick Newark Castle off my list of castles to see! :)

Don't bother. Lived here all my life pretty much and it's not that great! It's dying out not even got a shoe zone shop for school shoes anything related to kids clothes and footwear is supplied by Asda or you can get ripped of in Clarks So many shops have become empty and so is the market compared to what it used to be like, every stall would be selling something but now you get about 6 at the most we've been left with way too many over priced coffee places, hairdressers and pubs all the street opposite the castle is literally pubs and antiques shops so in the summer I've seen families looking awkward as they were just trying to have a walk to the castle but they're having to take the kids through the street full of half cut people smoking outside all the pubs on the main street! And secondary schools are limited to two within main Newark and one further out which would be a car or bus journey every day but the two we have are both pretty crap to be fair! My 19 year old left the area as soon as she got a uni place cos you can easily end up stuck in a rut here for the rest of your days and she didn't want that lol. Newark's dwindling so for a long term home it might seem pretty but it's not a very "practical" place for every day living. Also teenage traveller can be found spread about the town waiting to annoy people cos they don't go to school lol. I'd advise just keeping this as a nice place to visit for a few hours, I'm still here mostly cos I can't move elsewhere and I've been here that long bow I can't imagine where else I'd live lol.
