    That was such a varied walk. One minute wooded areas then an Abbey, parks, tudor home which looks great to visit and a water tower, similar to the one here in Lincoln. A view over Sheffield for lunch then back onto parks and woods and streets. It's definitely a walk that is a mixture of everything and part two should be great too. I never knew that walk existed either but it looks interesting and fun to do. Thanks so much Patrick for taking us along for the walk. Cheers 🍺

    I live near Abbeydale Road and yet it takes another pair of eyes to truly appreciate what's on my doorstep!
    There are so many pleasant walks and greenery. And, perhaps for another time, you went past some tremendous pubs on Chesterfield Road, Abbeydale Road and in the region.
    Thanks for a great video.

    As always, a wonderful video. I have been watching your videos for years now here near Chicago and as I do not have much time to really watch much TV, your videos have often replaced my TV watching. It is good to see Sheffield. I moved from Sheffield to the USA 18 years ago and have visited Sheffield only three times during that period of time so it is always good to see Sheffield and the surrounding areas covered and described so very well. My last visit to Sheffield was in November of 2019 where I got to experience bonfire night for the first time in almost two decades. My next visit will be in just a couple of weeks. July 10th to August 1st. I will have to check out the walk you have shown in this (and the next) video presentation. Many thanks for the great work in producing such fine videos. It is amazing how you do everything yourself. Some of the finest talent in journalism goes unrecognized today. I see that all the time here in Illinois. Your videos are professional grade and I would certainly buy them without hesitation.

      Thank you so much for all your kind words, that is lovely of you to say. I appreciate the feedback and glad you enjoy watching the videos. I think Sheffield is a fine city too, lots of green spaces and the Sheffield Round Walk showcases that very well I think. Thanks again and for taking the time to watch 👍

    That was great; a very diverse range of scenery and so close to civilisation too!! Have to say the climb up Lady Srring wood looked tough, nasty tree roots on the path too I noticed! Did they catch you out? Great music score and your visual editing in this one hugely impressive. Thanks for another superb video, take care and will be viewing part 2 soon!!

    I really enjoyed that Patrick - a refreshing walk. Some city walks are like intersected with country. I think Sheffield is one of the greenest in the country and with parks that size like Meersbrook it's no wonder. I was following on the map. I to enjoyed Bishops House as it retained its age well. As for the view - well simply one we could be entertained by all afternoon. A good lunch spot. There were some nice touches along the way I thought - Anne's community garden being one. Well, Sheffield is a place I could live in I think - greener than Liverpool. I hope you're well up there. Mark

    • @solitaryrambler
      @solitaryrambler  Год назад +1

      Thanks Mark, yeah Sheffield's definitely got a lot of greenery, so this a lovely walk to do which showcases all of that really. Bishops House is awesome isn't it, shame I couldn't go inside on that occasion, but a return visit will be on the cards methinks. Apparently the Sheffield Round Walk was extended some years back in order to pass through Meersbrook Park just to get that view. Anne's community garden was a lovely little touch beside the main road at that point. All good up here thanks anyway Mark, keep well down there. All the best 👍

    I had to laugh with you walking up that hill at the start Patrick, just like me you need a moment to recover at the top, but knocking on the door of 64 I'm happy to be able to still do hills if somewhat slower.
    Anyway a great walk with lots of interesting points along the way, Sheffield is always somewhere we've been meaning to go as we've heard how green the city is.

    Patrick, started out as a Huffer and puffer, other short step walks, Lincoln steep hill, Robin hood bay from bottom, I don't how they get from the pubs, they have a taxi number posted,. Harlech castle from train station, steepest car road in uk, Truro , up to train station, up to castle from dover, walk from lymouth to lynton, no cheating by using tram, it was harder going down from lynton to lymouth, hard on knees taking road, bath roads that are very steep, bottom short uphill cliffs along,. White cliffs of dover, st Margaret's bay, all huffers and puffers short non hill, steep stints, I bet you felt good after the huffing and puffing? 20:54 00
