❤😢 Thanks Stephen.

Lovely images. Thank you for a great film.

Well done Steve

Charlotte Rebecca moss my great great grandmother lived on this street in those days my family all lived locally

My family were frisby/moss/jones and lived here in the 1800s

Great to see. Thanks for the sympathetic musical accompaniment, rather than anything modern. I'm surprised the steaming took place after the lettering. How much did it all cost, please ? Was much of the original stone replaced ? Thanks very much.

I used to take my dad around Rothwell and desborough in his weelchair he liked the town very much until he passed away ☹️☹️I miss him very much

I miss my home very much

I miss my home very much I’m stuck in New Zealand

Very nice to see my home town. Thank you.

I worked for a company called Tool Hire & Engineering Co Ltd of Birmingham in the early 1970s and we had dozens if not hundreds of these machines (mostly Oxfords) back in the day. My job was to maintain them, although to be honest apart from the very rare nut loosening, or a bit of oil topping up, they were pretty bullet proof. Then came MIG welders and these old oil colled welders seemed to vanish.

It's a disgrace the way all those shops have gone the heart of the town has gone for ever,

How ABSOLUTELY fantastic!

A story about a similar necklace brought me to the channel. I had to look at the other videos because of the comment below. Just looking at the videos listed made me homesick for a place I've never been. I hope that you are all well and thriving. It's been a terrible few years for the world but I send love from Georgia, USA.

I grew up nearby. The mentality of the people in towns of Northants back in the late 20th C were of an attitude of "couldn't give a shit mate" They destroyed a lot of Kettering too. I have no idea how Rothwell got away with it. Guess they couldn't be arsed to smash it up and replace with 1960s 70s shite.

Either Dunkirk Avenue or Station Road could be used. Perhaps Dunkirk Avenue was the better choice.

How Bath Road in particular has changed. I can recall 15 assorted shops in the 50's from Kipling Road (Fox owned it then) to the sweet shop at the Bath Lane corner. Scott Road was a continuation of a path to Stamford Road, and Weekley Glebe Road ended at the playing field.

Fascinating

Nice video, I've cycled that route myself a few times

My husband's granddad was a shunter at this station till he had a shunting accident and lost a leg ,

Went there on holiday in 1961.. Thanks mum and dad for working so hard for me❤️👍

Stephen..this bought back a lot of memories. Loved the music as well.

Nice reflective film.

I lived here for 5 years...loved the Station House. Did quite a bit to it. It was a fun place to live.

Thanks Stephen.

Superb video Steve.

I loathe Tories

I think that view looking over Arthingworth from the first cattle grid takes a lot of beating!

Love these, Stephen. exiled in America now so great memories...

Used to play in that pillbox up on the cliff...now buried in the sand.

I learnt to drive here and used my motorbike around this in 2007-8!

Nice film and very moving

Thank you Steve. Great to see. ❤️

Nice for you to capture these events for future viewing!

Lovely Steve. Great to see it so well attended and with so many laying tributes.

A fascinating flashback. Thank you.

Fantastic, thank you. Some film of family in this that I’ve not seen before.

Looks so peaceful

Hi folks, great video. I've always wanted to know more about these machines and their history. I have no less than ten of these welders that i have started to restore, most just cosmetically as they all still work ! Only one has CYTRINGAN livery. Most are OXFORD and PICKHILL. I'm assuming other firms purchased licenses to build them, and perhaps the war had something to do with it.. I'm just guessing here as I cannot find much information online. . I'd be greatful of any information and history on the machines along with the Cyringan and other generic makes. Kind regards, John Allen , Nottingham.

Interesting. Thanks for that. My g grandmother was born here and I mean to go and have a look round one day soon

Lucy’s tea room got burned down

I think I’m in this video on the trucks I recognise some of the Mums

I love this video which shows what a beautiful area this is, dare I say a lifeline to even more families during 20/21 but now the metal fences have gone up and the bulldozers have arrive, so sad

my last name is named after a town? thats actually pretty cool

What year was this?

Nice one Steve to see you in a few more there soon regards David H

Another superb video, loved the buckwell st shots, so much has vanished!!.

Excellent

God dammit course my face is blocked out
