A very poignant chapter is this one, as this was the last place I visited with my Dad, before Leukaemia took him away. It was every bit as isolated as your film shows it to be, wild, quite desolate in some ways and always the wind.... .....apart from Mum, Dad and the two dogs, we had the Hoe to ourselves that afternoon, until we were joined by a Kestrel, which floated along beside us, not at all worried by our presence. The Hoe is a wonderful place to visit as you showed and I’m glad that you showcased it as you have, so well done! I’ve liked and subscribed and I’m enjoying your other films....👍🏻👍🏻👏🏼👏🏼

Canada calling! I came for the spy stories and stayed for this excellent video. Well done, sir.

Great little explainer piece. Thank you…

Just three miles from me but I rarely visit. A good overview.

Thanks for sharing your Talents , film making & presenting very informative , very processional , my wife and I have visited samphire hoe numerous times since becoming aware of it in early 2019 . enjoying the tranquil serenity , now when I suggest a visit i shall recommend your channel .

Excellent history of a lovely little place

In 1966 I had just left school and joined the survey team that was doing the plotting of the route and the borehole we marked showed the depths of the Marle which would be the actual tunnel depths, it goes up and down like a switchback . Now 60 years later I can see the results of our work. Two of the names of the killed workers were known to me from school.

one of my favourite places to visit. this was very interesting

Thanks for another very interesting video. I'd certainly recommend this one. I've only been in that area by train, but I'd like to drive there sometime. More please Andy.

Very interesting. I wish that they had left more of the sites industrial heritage, as in a very real way that formed the park entirely

Very interesting video!

Great video . I have travelled through the chunnel some years ago and fascinated with the project itself let alone the enginnering part. Your video is very informative. Thanks

A very well constructed video. Thank you.

Another bucket list item Strange to think what is now beneath our feet which i have used a few times. Thanks Andy for your content & classy channel.😊

Super! Nice work and a fascinating place.

Great to know and appreciate this location , and it’s history . Inspired to go there soon !

Yes, but it’s a long walk from the nearest town.

@@AndyMcloone Thanks Andy, I've walked to the Sound Mirror before, so not much further. Just trying to figure how you actually get down the cliff.

thanks for making and uploading this History lesson.... but this Park look awful and ugly. Why didn't they cover up the Seawall and make it more natural looking?
