It was great to come across this edition again on RUclips. Unfortunately for a number of reasons the planned excavations never took place. Hopefully one day they will get done. My book has long been out of print!
How do you get the book ? You just can't get it ? What do you think was up there? This is my first time hearing of this place. I have just recently procured many battle Relics from the Towton battlefield. Also Saxon, Roman pieces in the York area.
Unfortunately it's long out of print. There are copies on Ebay, but priced way over the original price. Lowest on Ebay is £22.99. The book is paperback and only 71 pages! A lot of what you have seen in Peter's video here is actually in my book so you wouldn't get much more information. I still have an open mind on what it was for.
Have you ever heard of a Wild West gang called the "Hole In The Wall Gang"? Butch Cassidy's gang. They used to hold up in canyon fortresses like "Hole in the Wall". They had no water at these locations, but they used them as lookouts to see who was coming their way, like the local posse or the sheriff. They lived elsewhere, where the water was. These locations were high up. They offered a tremendous view over the range. These were places that could be easily defended by very few people if needed. I think you have the same situation going on here with Carl Wark.
This was fascinating up until the WWII stuff, I didn't see what relevance it had to the historical narrative. Still no tangible evidence of what the place was used for in the mists of time.

The sillhouette of Carl Wark against the sunset is a stunning sight
Particularly excellent episode of Medieval Dead plus will the Fort ever give up its secrets?
Instead of digging your past you give your money to immigrants

Zig zag trenches are very mysterious! Brilliant!
They are World War 2 practice trenches. Canadian soldiers practiced all around the area for D Day. any rocks have bullet holes in them.
Where did all the trees go?
Medieval Dead - No dead people were found in the making of this documentary.
Btw it is mostly pronounced Carl 'walk' not 'waark'

Hey why does you strike me
The wildlife in this area? No Predators really? What is the wildlife present in this area? Coyote, Wolf , Pig.?? Has it changed through out history?
England doesn't have any coyotes or wolves.
@@louiseedwards29 Lots of foxes though.
3:50 I assume that's a domesticated dog, but where there are domesticated dogs there are probably feral dogs.
Why not carry gear in on hill ponies?
Because there is a road up in the back?
Not even a minute gone and a glut of adds ...no add blocker.. don't bother...
Found nothing, better pad out the last 10 minutes with WW2 training ground blather
