Ideally, this and the facts based on the "Standards of Science and Research" = Theory may not be assumed nor yreated as Fact. A open ended, freedom to think and test all theories, without fear of accusations and defamation. Free to imagine and free to Research, guided by the "Standards if Science and Research" + the proven Research Methodologies bringing forth the greater fact finds. Imagine that, rather that the Egos forcing the teaching of theory as fact. Mankind would/will be well served *when we manage our Ego Mind aka Lower Mind with "Conscious Thought + applied Higher Mind".* This is Mature Minded Thought, where Wisdom resides, and should be a required measure of Academics, particularly those in charge/Administrative Positions. 🔑

My first take looking at the castle and situation, is that it was once a larger structure, but over time it was abandoned and some of it went into ruin. Then someone cleared the other part, and made a small "house" and then moved on, when this family finally picked it up in 2007 again.

This is so interesting and a bit of a coincidence as last week I was looking on Google Earth the British Isles. I was looking for castles or at least their remnants. I didn't go far enough inland so I missed Upton. Just scouring the coasts you know. I always end up where my father was born and raised, near Fanore, County Clare, Eire. My Dad's family land extends into the Burren. There are the ruins of a castle on his land that I saw back in 1976 when we visited from Iowa, US. I know nothing at all about it's history and would be fascinated to learn anything about it. My sister did a genealogy of my Dad's side, back to the 1600's. Interestingly, we come from royalty! Bunratty was my ancestor's castle for a period of time, up until the damn O'Brien's kicked them out, lol. I'm sure no laughing matter back then. Uh, my metal detector yearns for Irish dirt but I don't see a trip abroad in my future. sigh

All these small finds are so cool to identify history. My cousin lives on a known Arawak (Taino) midden in south-central Jamaica. A few years back, my uncle dug around a little further and discovered a different style of pottery related to an earlier, less known group of people known only as “Red Ware People” that so far has generated little interest from researchers. Hopefully more interest (and funds) will be generated in the future...

It makes sense now with Margaret being buried closer to the altar. It's older part of the chapel. And William being buried in later built part.

Read Wikipedia. The original builder/owner is cemented in the home chapel next to his wife. Both were entombed wearing body armor. He was a Knights Templar Norman from France who emigrated to escape the wrath of the Catholic Church

Amazing.

I feel heartbroken for the Malefants (and anyone else who died prior to the whole hullabaloo with henry viii)--they would've been having Masses said for the repose of their souls, and then suddenly in the 1500s it just...stops.

An extremely beautifully made documentary, thank you! About the chapel layout: there was neither a separate room for sacred objects and church linen nor an integral room for leaving your weapons before entering. The latter fact was the more surprising one. In all Swedish medieval churches I can remember there is an arms room at the right hand side entrance to the church, and a symmetrically constructed space for the clergymen at the left hand side entrance. The churches are not rectangular but form a cross. How common are arms rooms in Welsh and English churches? Did the Normans build churches more like the Swedes did?

It was 300 years after the normans. The man under the efigee is the 15 or 20x great grandkid of the one who fought with william. By that time chapels like this were just small private places for the lord and his retinue to take communion and hear mass. No idea if the Normans built as Swedes and it changed or if the ancient Danes built theirs different than ancient Swedes to begin with, or how that was impacted by French influences but that's how it was in Britain.

Because it wasn't readily available at the time that many of these were filmed, and then it was cost prohibitive. When they use it, it likely also had specific funding for the process.

Interesting and informative, discovery so much history that can easily be lost - wonderful.
