Again, apologies, this is an old one that had to be re-published to remove copyright issues. If youtube would only allow replacement of sountracks...sigh...

No need to apologise. Painful for losing viewing numbers, likes and comments, but viewing the bigger picture of your developing your channel, plus time, will ease the sense of loss . You have all the skills, abilities and talents to do much more of what you've already done. Seeing these re-uploads as a refresh while just looking firmly ahead to what more you want to do uses less energy than thinking about KZread's lump hammer to crack a copyright nut and its lack of nuanced editability - if that's a word. And needed for KZread. Keep on keeping on. They're great videos, even forcibly tweaked to conform. Cheers from Herefordshire.

Thanks for the explanation! I thought I was having a déjà vu. Either that or some kind of stroke! It was interesting the first time. Still interesting now. 🙂

Love these old sites. Thanks from old New Orleans

I found this really interesting. Especially how, relatively quickly, the site has has fallen into such dilapidation. Mills, of all types, have been such an important part of our history, even one’s in this state, and recording them - as you have done - is an essential part of maintaining our historical record.

Thank you! And, yes, I actually said in the film that it is hard to say how old it is, and then I was surprised when I found out after picking up Mike Lowatt's book in the Winchcombe museum.

Love your video’s,please continue give us more great content.Thanks

Wonder if Matthias has heard of the Ankerwyke Yew? Very mysterious, the yew in ancient times. Yews and sacred springs and the first churches often found close to each other. This particular yew is the oldest on National Trust land, at least 2500 years old, and is said to be the place the Magna Carta was signed, and later where HenryVIII met Ann Boleyn. We'd have more yew trees but they were mostly cut down to make longbows, of course.

Water hatch is magical in February when it’s awash with snowdrops. I know it’s been derelict since the 1960’s at least as my partner would go there as a child and he says it hasn’t changed a lot since then

Don’t apologize. Sometimes adjustments actually clarify things, and makes it well worth watching content again.

@@MattMesserPics I just looked at it again and could only comment that a screenshot from 1.48 shows the true majesty of the bridge whereas your thumbnail is a zoom which cuts out the 'natural framing' and this detracts somewhat from the aesthetic beauty of it...just a thought, but sometimes people are pulled in (or not) by the image. (And you have to work hard as it is getting people interested in bridges)
