It's 2024, and yes the traffic has increased between Shaftesbury and Blandford, the War memorial still stands quietly on the side of the road, it reads 'Is it nothing to you, all thee who pass by.'
I often wonder how many young men would have gone if they had known they had already been stripped of all their rights ?
Back in the day. Used the circular path for running, as was at the nearby school. - When I say back in the day. Trains running. Two local Cinemas. 😊
When children kept Their innocents
Looking back at the Census it seems that since 1860 the population of the village has been around 900 and still is. However, this delightful film shows what a village is and how it functions best. A far cry from today. For us, on the other side of two World Wars and a gulf of years, such scenes have a simple charm and a sad remoteness.
That is a stunning project. Respect to you Chris and everyone involved, restoring a river and a floodplain, planting woodland and recharging ground water, that is quite some undertaking. And all of this whilst putting food on our table. Thank you for taking the time to share.
Promo sm 😇
"Promosm" 😪
Hermosa labor ! Felicitaciones 😊🎉
Found the village on google maps it is still a lovely looking village.
Some people nowadays say that they would hate to live in the " olden" days or even the 1970's!! Yes we didnt have the medicine's or understandings of health that we have nowadays, but i think you had more respect for each other & you certainly appreciated food & belongings far more & I'd assume that there was a lot less stress.
Makes me so nostalgic (my ancestors came from Dorset & Hampshire). The sheep market reminds of a time when I was young I asked the shepherd what he was doing that day, his reply 'I'm taking the lambs from their mams and splittin' the rams from the dams' (to be said in a strong local accent!) - it stuck in my head for over 50yrs.
Alas our beautiful countryside will ever be the same again!
Paradise almost lost. Oh to go back!!!!
When you could have pride in your country! I look at what's happened and weep. 😢
Absolutely Brilliant Peace be With You 😷😅
Interesting how Germany was demonised then as Russia now, we were fighting for freedom and democracy even then!
...and we wonder why we should stop the boats. This is the reason.
born in Poole 1942 still a dorset boy in the fens now
Thank you for the video 👍
No phones no TVs no Radio No Internet...I remember those days...
Me too.how I wish I could go back. I hate this country now, it’s been totally ruined by politicians and judges.
So did the Mayor and his Councillors take this pastoral ditty to the Front to show Tommy that all was well back home and country folk had it real cushy compared to those awful townies.
As you can see a nation is made from its ethnicity. English made England, japanese made japan etc. To destroy a nation you water down its ethnicity.
Not one migrant. What a wonderful country we had.
Yes, you only have to see these old films to realise how they were not "always here" as media likes to tell us.
Yes, Iwerne MInster is just overrun with foreigners and immigrants these days.
Ignorant rubbish. Honestly I despair. We have always been a seafaring nation and Dorset has a large and famous coastline. Portland stone is found in all the corners of the world... and sailors came here too. The myth of all the people never leaving the village they were born in really needs to be buried. It's commented on because it was an oddity then as it would be now. People travelled. They came here like we went there. This was the height of the British empire, soldiers and sailors came here as did wives and tradesmen. Read a few history books..
It amazes me that England went and took over everyone else's countries and gets pissed off when a few follow them home, it was foreign peoples wealth that built yiur damn small cold island
@@andrewgoodbody2121 we didn't we civilised them and stopped them killing eachother
And the PROPAGANDAS STILL GOING STRONG ..😏
Fascinating thanks for taking the trouble.
The schools should bring back maypole dancing.. "to develop agility, quickness and intellect " still true today..
Some schools still do maypole dancing.
What has happened to our country since then ?😢
Musi took over leftist do nation replacement advising them with obortion and blocking them having kids go parties and drink, drugs change boy friends they did all their best to shatter their society and end their race europe sadly this time is gone for ever even its history musi will demolish or burn they are hood at this france is a good example
We got an enemy against us that hates us in Parliament.
WindRush?
Old England -sadly gone under a tsunami of immigration and wokeness
We can stop it. They have a locust mindset. They move from ripe fields to ripe fields causing devastating outcomes. Where the literal locust is psychologically driven by crops, these imitators of locust are driven by economics. So this is what we can do.we must not gove a penny not in their shops, takeaways or barbers. They will swarm on else where. You see the government knows that these won't go to work. So why are they brining them here? There is the theory that they want to water us down which I don't doubt, the evidence is before you. But the government are going to overhaul the benefits system forcing people into very low paid jobs. Those already in minimum paid work will get less all to reduce the inflation they will say. They know that most people will say no so they have the migrants there ready to do it or they get no money. We have to stop this now before it happens. Don't give a penny.
I suppose that's why we had two world wars-so we could get the riff riff out of the countryside, and let the Tories have it all to themselves....
That's all you've got to say? Pft.
Because we don’t want you poor people making the place look untidy….and it’s riff raff, not riff riff.
@@deepdiver51 Don't worry musi will skew ... up will take care of u 😂 they are here boy 🎉😅
I love the comment that Maypole Dancing promote intellect, agility quickness and intellect. Mrs Spencer sounds like she’s really cracking the whip there! A One Act Play: ‘From the mind of an idiot.’ So laddy, you want to fly a Spitfire do you ? Yes, Sir. I dun Maypole Dancin’ an’ everyfink! Well Laddy you’ll fit right in here then. Don’t be bothering them folk up at Bletchley Park but. They only like people wot’s good at crosswords. No Sir, I ain’t never ‘ad a cross word wiv nobody ! I don’t like violence Right sonny, sign here then ! That’s your Spitfire on the left. Just a thought boyo, what do you think about Lancasters ? No, I ain’t never been up North before. Why does ye arks? Bomber Harris …. yer tea’s ready ! The sound of The Luftwaffe circling overhead. Bombs falling with that decisive whistle.
Butter, balls in bicycles, thart bee a man wot’s coming ‘ome from the shop, on his treadley won’t it? You be wantin’ ter foind warn wats been in the Perb fer a bit, eh ! Ed bee about farty puscent pickled afore ee git ‘ome, innit ! Argh, thart be right !
1918 brought end of First World War with millions dead.Then came Spanish Flue that killed even more. A generation butchered and dambed so sad one can cry even today . Next Generation too suffered hard . Since then poor England in peace has been taxed rated and robbed by Government greed
What would those people in this ,think of England today.
They would probably commit mass suicide
Turning in their Graves but it's our fault for allowing these none government leaders who think they are our government to do this to us without millions of us going to the streets.
😢
They would think they were looking at a foreign country.
They would be horrified
I lived there for 6years how neat is that. Some local yocals would say.. Dawhzet as against Dorset...Hahaa. Besides they them locals made the Best Apple Cider in the World... LuvU guys and Gals... Hahaa Greetings from S. A...
I remember maypole dancing in the 90s in Iwerne Minster (where I grew up) and at school in Fontmell Magna. Even then life was lovely in England, all ruined now by bigots.
1890s or 1990s?
And immigration 😢

How did immigrants stop maypole dancing???
@@LuciThomasHardylover-qx6ts good question and they probably did not, but we live in a woke society now and we cancel many things for the sake of people that may be offended like celebrating Easter, Christmas and now I hear Disney has cancelled the seven dwarfs in a new movie that will come out later and probably flop. Maybe cancelling the 7 dwarfs had nothing to do with immigration, but some may get the point I’m trying to make.
A very white balcony! 🤗
"Iwerne" is pronounced "Eye-wurn" or "Yorn", not how the presenter pronounces it.
Thank you 😊
What I find heartbreaking is those children toddling into school not knowing their lives will be blighted by the horrors of WW2. Don’t take life for granted, no one knows what the future holds.
The society was killed off by WWI & its aftermath..
Wonderful mix of pictures and words, most definitely one for the archives, and no doubt there's a good reason for the crash ending!
Goddard and his pigs crashed into the camera and destroyed it.
This film could be colorised ,, would be amazing
This film could be authentic in black and white
I remember maypole dancing at school in the 60s even then life was lovely in England, all ruined now by immigration
We are having our history and culture systematically destroyed or re-written by the Woke Establishment - and if we raise our voices in defense we are branded as racists.

@@LuciThomasHardylover-qx6ts why did you come here?
@@spudspuddy I came to see footage of my local area?
I really enjoyed the film but the music is intrusive. Balance of sound is incorrect.
Introduction of liberalism and drugs in the 60s was the beginning of the end for the western world.
Hard times and still so much dignity and beauty. People and animals alike knew where they belonged.
They knew where they belonged? What does that mean? Explain please.
Hard times and yet, England was England then. Two world wars destroyed its empire. Now, it is about to destroy itself.
@johncraske Where you from originally? Are you musi
@@trysam I am puzzled as to the relevance of where I am from. But, as you've asked, I'm originally from Scotland. As to me being 'musi', I'd answer it if I knew what musi meant.
@@johncraske All animals have a very strong 'feeling and need of belonging' - both for their habitat, range or farm as well as socially, to each other. Many animals and most humans nowadays are rather confused about their place in the natural world as well as our cultural surroundings. Birds of a feather sadly can no longer stick together. Any old countryman/farmer (like me) would understand!
Apart from tractors ect doing the work of horses, life in small rural villages hasn't changed that much from those 100+ years ago.
Absolute rubbish. Absolute tosh. You couldn’t be more wrong if you tried. “Life in small rural villages” has changed exponentially in the last 100 years. I have sat here reading, and re-reading, your comment for literally the last 30 mins. I truly cannot believe that in all seriousness you wrote that comment. Can I, with the greatest respect, enquire where you have been living for the last few weeks / months / years? Because it certainly has NOT been on the same planet on which I have been housed, that’s for sure. One last thing. Please, PLEASE, go and get the medical (psychiatric) help which your post tells me that you urgently require.
Apart from: the villages are full of retired people from outside of the area, schools are closing and you are lucky to find a pub or local shop. And lastly, they are full of cars.
@@freebornjohn2687 In my village we have two pubs next door to each other, separated by a river, strange I know. We also have a village store open 7 days a week.
@@trytellingthetruth.2068 I very pleased to hear you have a functioning village, you didn't mention a school. Do you have a balanced population or is it skewed to the old? Pretty villages attract the retired rich who can afford to go to the pub.
What did the news papers have on the front pages? Coming soon! Covid1918!
Lovely to keep this early footage. It is of course a war propaganda film so don't take very bit of it as gospel truth. It was supposedly the war to end all wars and yet by 1939 we were at war again and a whole generation of young men had been slaughtered in the trenches of France. My great grandfather who had bought in 1900 in South Africa from England was back fighting in WWII although by then with 2 step children and (by 1917) 8 children to keep. He was invalided out in 1916 just in time to conceive the final baby and then died 6 weeks after it was born - my mother's uncle who was indeed at my wedding. However this family were coal miners so not quite the healthy rural life of this film. Last year due to the internet we found a photo my late mother would have loved to have had - a picture of my greatgrandfather's wife and her 10 children in about 1918 - widowed twice she had the youngest baby on her knee. Anyway lovely film here. I think of Thomas Hardy when I think of Dorset and all his novels which made such an impression on m e at school in the 1970s.
