The Walk - EP 123 - Thor's Cave & The Leek & Manifold Railway - Manifold Valley, Staffordshire
Thank you for joining us on another explore.
The alarm went off at 4:15am for this one, and it was certainly worth it.
I am joined by Phil as we take an explore around the manifold valley in the peak district, where the views are breathtaking, and there is plenty of history to be discovered.
This is part one of an explore around the area, and in this one we’re concentrating on Thor’s cave. Thor’s cave is an incredible natural cavern where human remains dating back thousands of years, have been discovered.
Also on this explore we take a look at a series of other smaller caverns, Wetton Mill, which closed in 1856, plus ‘Nans tor’ cavern which sits on the hill behind the mill.
We then follow...

In this particular snippet, we take a look at a 250 year old bridge that lays hidden in the woods above the village. Once connected to Barton Quarry, it now serves as a public right of way, but I would wager that most of...

    Totally agree with you and @sovereignjoe5730. Reintroducing steam trains would get people coming probably from all over the world just to see them and travel on them. I reckon the IOM would be minted. There's a huge money making opportunity there ❤️🤗

    Great video guys, I pass by the Icke homestead regularly in Goodwood, where your uncle still lives, worked with him for a few years, another top man.

    Always fascinating to see the areas now and what they looked like in old photos. Amazing what engineering feats the Victorians accomplished.

    I remember the local headlines from back in the 70’s apparently satanic rituals were going on in the tunnels of the cemetery with sacrifices. Seems it has been hushed up ever since, probably explains why they have now been gated shut. You probably won’t find much in archives for obvious reasons, but pretty sure there will be many still remember it happening
