    Oh England, my merry England
    How my heart bleeds for you
    To walk over fields of green in the early morning dew
    And to hear the chorus of the dawn, sung especially for me and you...
    Thank you Dave & Logan for another beautiful walk...❤️

    Great walk Dave. Loved the church and the countryside looked resplendent. 👍🏻👌🏻. The Red Lion will do for an evening of refreshment. Keep well mate. 👍🏻🚶🏻‍♂️. Cheers Watto.

    I did a walk there a few years ago. The woods, I think, to the right of the church was covered in wild garlic. It was stunning. Great video. 👍

      Thanks Anne. We certainly enjoyed that part of the walk, going through the woods.

    What a great video. Loved the old pub. Looked really warm and cosy with the fireplace. 😀

      Thanks Rachel. Yes, Logan & I could have happily remained in that pub for the rest of the day!

    Well, I'm bingeing on your lovely videos and clicking away at thumbs up. Nice to see that many areas are relatively unchanged since I last visited. (and I don't mean London).

      Thanks Dave. Hampshire is such a pretty county - full of "gems" to explore for sure!

    Dave, your videos show how fabulous England and especially Dorset, Hampshire and Sussex are. We must preserve its character and beauty !

    • @DaveFord

      Certainly agree with you there, Geoff.

    What a stunning winter's day walk. I have actually walked in that area myself but quite a while ago now. I loved the long winter shadows - expecially Logan's. Fly away Peter, fly away Paul - enter St Hubert! That church is fascinating and the ice house beyond a interesting relic of the country estate. Thanks again for another super video. Always so enjoyable!

      Thanks Jean. When the sun does come out (!), you can certainly get some great walks in the Winter.

    Hi Dave, love your videos and this is another fantastic walk selected by you. The histories of the places you visit are very interesting. Incidentally, I visited the Red Lion in Chalton last November (i.e., 2021) and enjoyed a superb pint of HSB in the same room as you did, although not quite by the fire! You can't beat an experience like that - like a little remnant of 'Olde England'. You wouldn't be the first person to find it difficult to leave that place! 😄 Keep well, and I look forward to further walks with you and Logan.

      Thanks Phil. Yes, it was very "cosy" in the Red Lion, for sure!

    Hello Dave. I found that church in the middle of a field rather odd. Couldn’t see any houses with sight, and yet it appeared to be still used.
    When Logan emerged from that tunnel under the railway, I could see he was thinking “come on dad, put some effort into it “.
    I don’t how how you had the heart to drag Logan away from that lovely fire!
    I’ve heard of those pounds before, although I’ve never seen one.

    • @DaveFord
      @DaveFord  2 года назад

      I think Logan was very content in his "prime position" by the fire!

    Haha the amount of stiles I come across that have no fence either one or both sides of them is mind boggling 😂

      Oh well ... it keeps me fit! :)

    The thoughts on St Hubert's church and why it is in the middle of the field are that at one stage all the fields surrounding it would have been woodland and the church was at the centre of the village which as Dave says is long gone. But farming, housing and of course shipbuilding have taken their toll of the wood and it is now on its own in the field. Remember it took over 550 trees to build the Mary Rose so a wood doesn't last long when you have the sort of demands that Henry VIII made on them.

      Thanks for the background information Charles - that certainly explains it. Thank you for watching.
