The name Arbeia has nothing to do with Arabs. It is a native British name, though it's meaning is unknown. None of the names in Britain are anything but local, except for a few obvious Roman Latin ones. The term Arab was not around at the time, & certainly not in Britain. The troops who occupied the fort were certainly not Arabs at any time. The very late Roman 'Tigres Bargemen' may not be the entire garrison, if it applies here at all. Certainly the fort held a normal Cohort, maybe supplemented by special river craft troops. The drains under the gateway foundations are just for the fort roads & roof run offs etc. At some stage half the gates were walled up as not needed. I don't think the rats came with the Romans. The many granaries were to supply the forts along the Wall, & maybe for moves into Scotland. The toilets would have had permanent flow of water through to keep them flushed & clean, out into the surrounding ditch, or downhill to the river.

Stonehenge has become a cash cow, and in my eyes is quite obscene. They should have left it as it was. The stones in the wall at Sarum are indeed flint nodules, and the flowers in the grass that you looked at aren't clover, they look more like Self heal. Sauron was the ruler of Mordor and wanted the ring, twasn't Sarum, but you did make me laugh. I've been to Avebury, I found it peaceful and rather lovely. And I had a great Aunt live in Burford. Am enjoying your Grand tour so far.

In the early 70s i spent many shifts driving a loading shovel we would take pit waste across and tip it into the sea which was always black in the summer we would have along lead in the winter storms the tip would disappear into the sea we would sè old men picking coal into bags then push tye bikes up the cliff face men would be on the beach with fires going on winter nights i was told the tip end best place for cod

Stone was taken from the fort for many a local building including St Paul church in jarrow

Need to invest in audio app couldn’t hear so came out

Conisbrough is my home village! changed a lot since the 90's

Love the Graffiti around Nottingham though. Also many small villages don't have things open on a Monday. plus it is cheaper too shut up shop than to have the place open with no customers. Folks open when there's good footfall about. There places might be also packed over the weekend which can then result in them being able to choose when to open up.

Nice one 🙂👍 Cauld, in this case, is pronounced 'card'. I'm really cold is said as I'm really card . Thanks for that, the tea rooms should be back open by now 🫖🍰😁

I discovered that village from a walk starting in Melsonby, last year. We didn't have the time to wander around A st J afterwards, your video shows that it's a lovely looking village (as they usually are around that area). Next time I'm coming back home via Scotch Corner I'll have a better look. Thanks very much for this video 🙂👍

Thanks for that, I can't believe that I've never noticed it! Cheers 👏👍

I never call it "Holy Island" its ancient name of Lindisfarne is beautiful and good enough for me.

Thanks for showing us Holy Island. Lindisfarne appears to be a name of Scandinavian descent and a place where the Vikings first landed in England. It would have been interesting if you could have pointed out where the 'experts' think the Norsemen landed and where did they go? What did they do there? I got the impression the Vikings slaughtered some monks.

Thanks for showing Lindisfarne to us. Alas, it would have been interesting if you would have thrown some light on the Viking invasion of the abby. Where did they land and what did they do there? Seems to me that the very name of the island is of Scandinavian origin.

Everyone loves cute cat videos, would you like to live on an island where all the cats are wild & outnumber them humans? Do you live in Cyprus?

Did you know of this place? what are you memories? ever seen a ghost here? If you live in the area, did you know about this place just off the A690 ?

Have you seen the film? have you visited Redcar?

What are your impressions of Tokyo? have you visited or live here?

What are your memories of Scarborough? good or bad?

Have you been to Holy Island? is so what did you like or dislike? did you get trapped by the tide?

The entra nice you found was for ventilation. Based on the global can design. The mountings you highlighted . The shafts was capped and bricked up as you can see. How with a hole.in. Drifts where to the right of were this is.

The air intake found was an electric can housing for ventilation.

The random circle was a sports pitch built 20 years ago when the site was a collage

It was really a wonderful walk at Conisbrough! You've shared a great video, and I'm glad to watch it. The scenery was very beautiful, and the view was just fantastic!! Thanks for showing and sharing.

Eston Mines worked from 1850 to 1949 and produced some 63 million tons of ironstone. It was the creation of Teesside as a major iron, then steel, producing centre. The first collection of concrete remains was a small ventilating fanhouse for drawing air out of the mines; the second tunnel served the same purpose but had a much larger ventilating fan in front of it built there in 1869. The high stone wall was the base of a large steam engine house for hauling wagons along a railway from the Guisborough direction. Plenty of other remains can be seen when the vegetation is down. Several other sites had driftts, all now closed, where the ironstone was brought out.

The bath thing was a sink from memory, that back section was part of the kitchens and the vaults were for storing food. About 10 years ago I met an old fella in his late 80s who was telling me all about it as he'd lived there all his life. Loads of those earthworks around the area and in the farm fields all contain parts of the castle. Sure that that standing section is the gatehouse

I was there too, and I see that you did the video on Sunday as I am in your background shot

Comment on cashless. I agree with you about being forced to pay by card. I went to a public toilet in Scarborough today, July 2024. On the seafront, South Bay, near this hotel. It cost 50p and it only took cash cards. When I got inside it, it was filthy. Not worth 50p and no way was the fact that no one can pay cash acceptable. No receipt was given either. It said the door opened automatically after 5 minutes but I didn't wait that long! There was a button to release the lock on the door but it took several attempts to get it to work!

I can’t agree more with you it’s a cracking hotel for the money

Can you tell where those places are?

Nice having the pool

Again a beautiful place on our doorstep. Haven't been here for years.

An excellent video showcasing Brough Castle, so cool! Wouldn't mind a trip there at some point. Love that it was built on a roman site beforehand, such incredible history. Thank you for sharing

Fantastic, never knew about this treasure. Thanks for introducing me to it.

Those windows do open

Great video. Beautiful place x

Like to go again last time i was there was 2004 with school on a trip , fantastic x

🤷 promo sm

Might be interesting but can't hear commentary most of the time

Cool ass place Scarborough is though. Should experience it when goth week is on that is a site to behold.

super review of the hotel, thanks for the video

For £73 ya definitely not being robbed. Old history and a great view of the ocean. I can imagine this place being haunted as fck. Ha

bad video!! After 3 minutes my head turn like I'm drunk!

Positive review of a cool old Hotel I agree too but filming and sound quality awful especially out in the windy street.But well done for trying mate.

Was in week day or weekend when noone was in the room ?

Nice

At the beginning of the video, those are salt scar rocks. The petrified forest is further down the beach nearer the cinema. Redcar is my hometown and its lovely on a nice day ❤

very beautiful place and the church is quiet and calm, complete peace

Hi at 2:42 you say ‘that wasn’t there’ what are you referring to? Pretty much all that in the shot, the ship, the Ferris wheel, the buildings with fake roofs looking like they were blown up was all there. The Ferris wheel had stunt me hanging off it. Obviously I presume with some safety harness attached😂 the boat was just the shell. The only stuff they used CGI on was taking some of the back ground out like the steel works etc and a few boats in the sea

Awww my gosh look at the lambs though. That's literally blew my mind. That is so cool what did the stones feel like, does it feel as magical as it looks, love the music on the video. That views gorgeous.

Amazing walking tour, beautiful place, thanks for sharing 😍👍
