Hi, this was very helpful. As a big Beatle fan, I had never actually seen their childhood homes, so thanks for this.

Great views that Mr. Average will never see with a climb like that. Thank you. PS . Pronounce how you like its a foreign language after all.

I live nearby and have walked the ridge many times. Your route was not one I've tried 😂 although parts of it are on variations I've taken. A better route is to drive up past Hergest Croft (which is well signposted) and park at the top of the lane. There's plenty of room and it's free. From there just walk up the rest of the lane and through the gate. Continue uphill on the clear track until you cross the old racetrack and reach the monkey puzzle trees at the summit. Better luck next time 😊

used to walk thre regularly and meet the shepherd as well quite often

was the town named after the chip shop?

It does sadden me that the recording studio is no longer active - the fact that Radiohead recorded Pablo Honey where I now live is amazing. Keith Moon used to own The Crown and Cushion Hotel and Alex James of Blur fame is now Alex of Cheese fame. He lives just down the road in Kingham, which falls under Chipping Norton. Other than that, Chippy as we call it is a really nice town that could do with some more music fame! I liked your little intro to the town - "It becomes a market" is quite a strong term. Every Wednesday we have a scattering of stalls - vegetables, baskets, t-shirts with howling wolves/moon motifs, sometimes a fish van. The chip shop? - sadly it's awful. Ok, that's a bit mean, it's about as bad as the majority of chip shops that have no passion for what they do. You can get some greasy chips, oily sausages, battered fish with more batter than fish, eat it and not suffer too much the next day. Just like Radiohead almost certainly did - I like to believe the entire band waited inside the Chippy for their takeout, but I suspect the recording studio would've arranged a minion to do the waiting.

I Imagine that Studio had to be Quite Soundproofed with that traffic going by.

Thank you for this video. Chipping Norton looks a lovely place to have a recording studio. So many top Artists in their day & some signature singles recorded there. A good reason I looked at this video is that I've been searching out recording studios lately & it's a shame the studio closed in Chipping Norton; I'd of enjoyed the town & the fish & chips just the same as the experience recording there. Many thanks. Cheers👍

What a wonderful little village

My mum’s friend worked at the factory and her daughter and I learned to swim in that swimming pool - in the mid 1970’s. For my whole life I have been able to say I learned to swim at The Cadbury Factory. Sounds like a Willy Wonka fact, but it’s true!!! Good to see it in this vid ❤

The white cottage is used by the company who do those hardcore tours down some of the mines,. They have also opened up a "hotel" that you can stay in, basically takes 6 hours having to climb through the mines, stay overnight and another 6 hours back.

I'm really really sorry but you should say it "tan-uh-grish-eye"

Thank you for this nice views 😊

Absolutely Love these Tunnel Access pieces. I regularly went in thex1980s but can't thesedays. Really want to go one last time before Goodison no longer

V helpful, thank you

Thanks so much for making the climb for us watching. Yes that's incredibly disappointing. Some people have a go at the Weoley Castle ruins in Birmingham, but at least there there's more than enough stones to see. Unfortunately it's not open to the public as much as it should be but they're worth seeing. This single stone isn't worth the climb, I'd have been devastated to have made the climb to see nothing there on the ground, but oh my, the vuew us fantastic. Give me some ancient rocks and some land rights & I'd happily build my Castle on that hill, moat and drawbridge and everything.
