Another great video X The Whitish mark on the side of the tower reminded me of 'The Scream' painting, looked like a face at some points X Good Drone footage once again X Thanks all X
Just been reading the accounts of the men stationed there, a very bleak and muddy place harsh discipline and depression were commonplace, Thank you Jenni ❤️ best wishes to you and yours x X
Hi Mace, great video again, as a side note, when my father had been de-mobbed after WW2, he was re-called for the Korean War in 1952, and was to report to Stobs camp, but he never had to attend, cheers Buzz.
Just been researching the history there, it’s absolutely fascinating I wish I had of researched it properly before I made this video as I now know the significance of the place, that POW hut for instance is over 100 years old. SBC should preserve Stobs as it’s far more enriching than a tapestry in Galashiels they’ve wasted millions on, thank you for sharing your thoughts Buzz 🐝
"Now the bleak, windswept hills lie as silent witnesses to all that passed before them." Very appropriate line from one of the links you provided. Several indications of that wind in the video. Good history lesson. Travel Safe
I sat and read the accounts of the men there last night unimaginable what they endured, whole battalions dead because they were made to go over the top even though the previous regiment had been completely wiped out, facing bullets with heads down as if in bad weather. Also the importance of music and sings to lift there spirts. No hot water at the camp mud everywhere etc gave me more of an appreciation of the place as I knew very little beforehand. I hope you’re well nana much love from both me and Fio xX ❤️💙🏴
Hi 👋 came over from Lewis’s channel. Fiona- I love your voice. You sound like you should be reading children’s books 💕. You sound magical like Glenda the good witch ❤️. Loved the tour 👍👏. I always wonder why these old buildings aren’t picked clean of some of the beautiful old objects in these type of places. That stairway once , was probably so pretty. Have a great weekend 🙏🏻💐
May 94! the month and year I was born! Ian when all these quarantining and travel is open again, when I come over from Canada and meet with my friend from Ireland we'd love to come meet up with you and have you take us to a bunch of cool places to explore! Seeing some of these places in videos isn't enough! We have nothing abandoned here in Vancouver hahah, take care!
Hiya Alex that would be so cool, id love to show you around take you up the Riddell tower come kayaking with us etc I know you'd love it, you can stay in our spare room, Fiona and myself send you our love and best wishes x
So many great shots. You remind me of Sean hross the way you explore and I’m almost waiting for you to point out nefarious symbols in and around the UK.
hi unsure of whom you mean, there was a time in my life id bother about such things but I leave symbols for the "symbol minded,' Thank you for stopping by the channel I hope to see you again, best wishes x
I don't think I've seen any videos by "Lewis" lately. I'll have to check my subscription list to make sure he's still there. 2:38 was that an old "silver cross" pram? Those things where built like tanks.
@@XhristinaMacey I don't mean to offend or defend either of you as I don't know what was said / done to make you feel or think that way about someone. You must remember, some people act differently when something has changed about somebody that they *used* to know. This could be sexuality, religion or even losing weight and many other reasons too. I think it's more of a simple misunderstanding on both sides. (Again, I don't know what happened. Nor am I asking for details)
Love These lost Place adventures🤟😀
nice to hear from you Black cheers for stopping by

Why is that house abandoned? It could be made lovely. 1930’s kitchen cabinet
The place is quite bleak & foreboding I wouldn’t want to live up there that’s for sure, thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts mom 👍🎥🏴😎🌟

Lewis and I aren’t friends anymore turns out his a transphobic ungrateful shithead x
