I didn’t know about the camp either, very interesting. The mushroom soup recipe looked delicious and just the thing you need on a gloomy day, heartwarming. Thanks Rebecca.
For 27 years I lived in sheffield and not far away in the Hope Valley. The Three Merry Lads is a great pub. Good food and good atmosphere and also marvellous views from the beer garden. I also lived a short distance away from it and used to mountain bike all around that area. Not once did I realise until now that this had been a POW camp. Not only that but I could see you walking on the periphery on what seemed to be a superb level path on which to cycle. Never knew that was there either! So many thanks for the video..
Thanks for a really interesting vlog, Becky. It's hard to imagine what life was like in that camp or any prisoner of war camp for that matter. I also appreciate the research you do for these vlogs. Thanks for posting.
Enjoyed your video a lot. I know Lodge Moor and Redmires well as I grew up 10 mins down the road. I had some idea about the POW camp but had no idea how big or how important it was. Brilliant fascinating video and yes Lodge Moor is colder than anywhere else in Sheffield lol. 😀
Hi Rebecca, Great vlog, but we’ve learnt to expect nothing less now! This resonates with us greatly having family ties to this history. We know of many stories about the Italian prisoners of war and we have connections that would simply fascinate you! Best wishes, J&M XX
Hey Becks, wow it's amazing how many people take their dogs out in the woods not knowing what was around over 80 years ago. My love is secret underground bunkers past and present x
Hi Becky, great vid as usual, only a fellow sheffielder can appreciate the area's which you visit. If memory served me correctly, the old Lodge Moor hospital was nearby, now a housing estate.
Lovely autumnal walk, fascinating history about tho POW camp but must have been a bit eerie around the ruins. Nothing tastier than homemade mushroom soup ❤
Hi Becky, A few years ago I remember my dad having a book by an Author called John Harris. I think the novel was called Covanant of Death, it was set at Blackmires a training camp for Sheffield soldiers. I think the book was about soldiers from Sheffield who evenually ended up on the Somme. Also talking about Lodge Moor, did you know about the jet aircraft that crashed into the Hospital? See photo of article I have.
Hi becky love these history blogs who would have thought prisoners of war was so close looks a beautiful walk I love autumn and heads up on coffee shop I had a fabulous gluten free gingerbread latte and wait for it gingerbread muffin to die for meadow Hall at bakers baristas 😅
Thankyou. That's just reminded me about Campbells mushroom soup I used to make a lovely pasta sauce with it but totally forgot about it, off to the supermarket tomorrow 😆
Great vlog again😊 iv made most soups , my fave is Roasted Red Peper & Butternut quash, I'll try the mushroom it looks amazing. When do you start Christmas decorating, now I'm looking forward to see how you do it.😊
I need to try a roast pepper soup. I'm usually a stickler for tradition and do the 12 days before however I thinknI might have to go early this year if I'm to vlog it!
Hi Becks I love walking my one year old cockapoo in the woods only problem is because of his colour he blends into the autumn leaves that have fallen 😊 great video bye the way.
I used to wild camp there when i was around 16-18. Ive always struggled with my head. This was my place of peace. Never once had an issue with the traveller site next-door. If you keep going to the carpark at Redmires. Walk behind it and you will find a secret gem.
I used to enjoy watching a tv show called 'One Man And His Dog' presented by Phil Drabble. Years later I now find myself watching 'One Girl And Her Dog' !
My grandfather worked constructing part of the camp. I've still got a wallet which one of the Italian prisoners made out of his blanket for my granddad for treating them like humans. And loads of stories
Brings back happy memories as a child, we used to walk up Wyming Brook and either onto the 3 Merry Lads for a drink and bag of crips and back down to the car or up to Stanage Pole to admire the views, can vaguely remember my dad telling me about the Camp and unfortunately my Grandma died in Lodge Moor Hospital of a heart attack when I was little but can remember visiting. It can be a little bit bleak up there as its very exposed. I'm going to have a bash at the mushroom soup in my soup maker (cheat) usually make Butternut squash soup during the winter months, its lovely.
It was always a treat to go to the pub for pop and crisps! 🥰 I wasn't aware of the hospital until a few people have mentioned it I need to have a read about it. X
Great video, im from Lodge Moor but live in the north of Sheffield now and love watching anything from home, sime decent knowledge if the vanp thete too, I've learned a fair bit from your video. It was fascinating as a kid walking round there along with the hospital which is now a housing estate.
Late in WW2 most prisoners in the camp where Italian and considered low risk. They helped with local farm jobs and built the current 'drive' through Wyming Brook and round Rivelin Dams. I do not know who decided to put such a prison next to some of west Sheffield's water supply? The camp area had at one time being considered for a Sheffield airport but the weather was against such a plan. During WW1 there was a mock up of hill 60 on the western front for training purposes just north of the top Redmires dam
I parked on the main road across from the entrance to the camp there was a little lay by however there was a big car park at the hallam rangers football club
Hi Becky loved the autumnal woods! Lottie looks fab as always John in stow on the wold Cotswolds I've been on a blind date! I'm 63! He was lovely but..not very tall! See you soon love soup especially making my own xx ❤
Hi Becky, my wife and I enjoy watching your blogs. It's a change from watching your brother and Helen. You are getting more professional every time we check in. Keep them coming. PS I think you should investing on buying a compass, should you get yourself lost. 🤗🤗🤗 Terrance from Edinburgh.
Great video. Looks a great place too. I am too a Sheffielder. Born and bred as they say. Just started doing walk about with a camera too. So if I get a chance I might give this place a visit.
Very interesting,shame they couldn't invest and make it visitor friendly-its part of our history.Id no idea it was there.The prisoners would have been better treated than our lads over seas!!!!As its rememberance Sunday,respect. Comfort food is a must for autumn and winter 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I remember the POW camp at Lodge Moor. It was located in a area on the outskirts of Sheffield. You could walk from there to Wyming Brook, a beautiful and unspoilt area of wild countryside.
My Father in law was Ukrainian, he was in the camp. He married after the war and moved to Page Hall, Bolsover Rd. He could make or build anything, he died very young, late sixties. His wife was Italian, she worked nights in the local hospital. Died five months after retiring, just glad they didn't see what happened to where they once lived. So sad.
I never knew about this place! Great vid, as always. I really like the hat, by the way... But I have been known to wear a flat cap. Oh, have you ever been to Kenwood Hotel in Nether Edge? Not the biggest place, but lovely grounds and has a fascinating history. Check it out.
14.50,did I hear you say muggy outside or did you mean dark & murky. Muggy that's how I describe miami building up to a thunder storm..it's got to be cold wet murky weather autumnal or winter for me to do a home made fresh soup,Muggy conditions would be usually home made lemon 🍋 ade.iced lollies sorbet..
Well, becky,they do say nobody is perfect, though you are perfect in many ways, hark @ me critiquing your vocabulary I'm not one to talk though that arran sweater would of made me warm hot maybe muggie muggier.ill look for the positives next time 😜 I'm a daft nit picker sometimes a bad trait of mine..
Another very informative vlog Becky. Your soup did look lovely, however, I don't like mushrooms. I do make a nice vegetable soup, but put too much pepper in my last one 😞Loved your jumper, looks very cosy
I think you have the same car as me. Just bought it. How are the seats doing with a dog on them. I have a boxer and worried about scratches on the seats😮
@BeckandBeyond I learnt more of you cheers Becks, I can remember some white toil thingies on the floor peering though the weed growth probably the toilets block etc they trust must have been baby trees then they got taller to hide it all I suppose....?
@BeckandBeyond it will be there come Spring, it's beautiful when everything comes into bloom.You have the fantastic Castle over shadowing things.Beautiful ,Becks x
Not Only Was it one of Englands largest POW camps, im led to believe it was one of the largest in Europe, I will stand correcting though on this. My Old Man used to ferry Prisoners around from here, & Became friendly with a German POW, Hence my Name apparently ???, Mum Used to walk the kids up to lodge moor camp when they were very little she used to say.
@@BeckandBeyond Hiya Beck, My dad was a bus/Coach driver at the time , & As Ive said apparently he became friends, as such with this German & an Italian POW. Hence my Name is Carl Anthony, Carl representing the name of the German (Not Spelt with a K though) & my middle name being the Italian POW (Antonio). He used to say, they were just ordinary people, who were sent off to do a job they didn't want to do or agree with, in the sense of Killing Normal working class People like their own kind. ????. I do not Know if the POW's were moved to various places in the UK, this I never asked or was not said, so on that side I am sorry I cannot give you more Info.
My Dad was a guard at this very camp at the end of WW2 and in the 1950s when I was young boy I was in that camp when they took all the Huts down and me and some mates found some German badges and coins
I like the star above your cooker did you know your more safer in the middle of a forest solo than in a city centre my own thoughts might not be fact I always feel alot safer in the forests looks nice in the Sheffield woods 🏴
It's a E by gum hat 😂 have you seen my whippet 😂 I think most Germans was happy to be prisoners they was treated very well, when you consider rationing ,I think some was allowed in the community to do gardening work and such . So you can imagine a few romances may have blossomed . They would be found in Rotherham 3 sheets to the wind 🍺🍺🍺🍺😂
@@BeckandBeyond Maybe they just weren't very well-fed. But I heard the Brits were committed to giving the prisoners comparable food to that of their own troops/people. I know the prisoners were expected to help with farming etc when security issues were under control. I suppose I'd still prefer a tiny shower-cubicle than to have to share
I think you put out some incorrect information in this video, as Italians and Ukranians were allies to the British, so would have never been kept as prisoners by the British
Didn't they change sides? I'm not an expert by any means but it is quite well documented that there were Italians and Ukranians held here although they were given far more freedom than when the Germans were here. X
Didn't the italians switch sides? I'm certainly not expert but it's well documented that Italians and Ukrainians were held here although they had much more freedom than the Germans. X
Thanks …..that was a great watch! Very interesting after a day of watching The Cenotaph 🥲, that walk through the woods was lovely but do you ever feel a bit scared or is it just me being a scaredy cat . The last time I took a walk,I was followed by a creepy old man, I kept walking very purposefully and went into the nearest garage and the men doing the car wash ranted at him in their own language 🤷♀️ It’s a shame as I loved that walk just 10 mins from my town but I haven’t been back so now do exercises at home as I don’t like gyms much nor can I afford it !! You look great in that country cap of knowledge 😂 I don’t get notifications of your blogs now ( nor James channel) I must check my settings again…..grandsons have been on my iPad!!! Here’s to the next one… I too,like being cosy in my little house, my reading corner with my old ancient comfy chair surrounded by books CDs and vinyls…heaven 😂😂 Take care and keep warm
Oh that's a shame you were scares off your favorite walk! It wasn't really scary there lots of dog walkers around so felt quite safe! Quite a few people say they have become unsubscribed for some reason yeah just check the settings it will be those pesky grandsons 🤣🤣 I have a pesky son who keeps changing my settings!
Thanks for the local historical tour. So true, I also crave starchy foods during the cold seasons. Have a good week!
Yep healthy food goes out of the window!!
I didn’t know about the camp either, very interesting. The mushroom soup recipe looked delicious and just the thing you need on a gloomy day, heartwarming. Thanks Rebecca.
Yes you can't beat some homemade soup!

Hey Russ was just before were the bus stops and turns round

Lovely autumnal walk, fascinating history about tho POW camp but must have been a bit eerie around the ruins. Nothing tastier than homemade mushroom soup ❤
It was quite eerie!
Brilliant as always 👍👍❤❤
Thank you so much 😀
@BeckandBeyond My pleasure 😍
Brilliant, absolutely fascinating and very informative, Thankyou x👍

An excellent book. Both Christopher and Peter Hitchens rated it and they could hardly ever agree on anything.
I didn't know that!! I will definitely look that up thankyou!
Haha love this!
Another great vlog, I don’t personally like mushrooms but love the way you just improvise the whole thing and it did look good 👍🏽
Thanks so much! 😊
Wicked video Beck, I hope you’re good! ….Smithy
Thankyou Smithy! I'm great
Another interesting vlog, Becky. I loved it. My favourite soup. Loved the colour and consistency. 😊
Thanks so much! 😊
Hi becky love these history blogs who would have thought prisoners of war was so close looks a beautiful walk I love autumn and heads up on coffee shop I had a fabulous gluten free gingerbread latte and wait for it gingerbread muffin to die for meadow Hall at bakers baristas 😅
Ooo really thanks for the recommendation I will try it next time I'm there!!
Loving the cap, fab video mate x
Thankyou!
Perfect vlog.
Ill be making the soup tomorrow.
My cheat to it is I add a tin of Cambles mushroom soup.

Thankyou. That's just reminded me about Campbells mushroom soup I used to make a lovely pasta sauce with it but totally forgot about it, off to the supermarket tomorrow 😆

Cannot wait for your Christmas offering ❤
Me too, I'm not sure what to do yet 🤣 x
Hi Becks I love walking my one year old cockapoo in the woods only problem is because of his colour he blends into the autumn leaves that have fallen 😊 great video bye the way.

I was more worried about you walking In them woods than the video , I will make some of that mushroom soup looked yummy thank you and be careful xx
Thankyou. It felt quite safe there were lots of other walkers around. X
Good one Becky! ❤
Thankyou
Hi Beck, another great video and the soup looks lovely, can I ask where you purchased the coat from. Thank you in advance.
Hi thankyou. I got my coat from Sister on Ecclesall Rd in Sheffield it's a Rino and Pelle x
Wow! I never knew Donitz was here in Sheffield!! Thanks.
Great video.

It's so easy to make I'm sure he will love it. X
I do like your history lessons with the Hat Of Knowledge I think helped. 😂
It really does help 🤣🤣
From Sherlock Holmes to closet Florist to Nigela queen of soup
I'm a jack of all trades master of none 🤣🤣
Interesting watch, thank you for the upload. Out of interest where did you park to do the walk
I parked on the main road across from the entrance to the camp there was a little lay by however there was a big car park at the hallam rangers football club
Hi Becky loved the autumnal woods! Lottie looks fab as always John in stow on the wold Cotswolds I've been on a blind date! I'm 63! He was lovely but..not very tall! See you soon love soup especially making my own xx ❤
Hi John. A blind date how exciting! I have my fingers crossed for you x
@BeckandBeyond hi Becks ..na lovely guy..just not tall enough! X
Hi Becky, my wife and I enjoy watching your blogs. It's a change from watching your brother and Helen. You are getting more professional every time we check in. Keep them coming. PS I think you should investing on buying a compass, should you get yourself lost. 🤗🤗🤗 Terrance from Edinburgh.

It's definitely worth a visit, but wear your wellies!

It really is a beautiful spot!
Hi Becks. ❤
👋 hi!
My Father in law was Ukrainian, he was in the camp. He married after the war and moved to Page Hall, Bolsover Rd. He could make or build anything, he died very young, late sixties. His wife was Italian, she worked nights in the local hospital. Died five months after retiring, just glad they didn't see what happened to where they once lived. So sad.
So sad 😞

Oh, have you ever been to Kenwood Hotel in Nether Edge? Not the biggest place, but lovely grounds and has a fascinating history. Check it out.
I have stayed at Kenwood Hall many years ago but you're right the gardens are beautiful!
🐻 dad they was magic them mushrooms i feel a bit dizzy ,where did you get them from 🤠 just picked them from bird sanctuary teddy 😂
14.50,did I hear you say muggy outside or did you mean dark & murky. Muggy that's how I describe miami building up to a thunder storm..it's got to be cold wet murky weather autumnal or winter for me to do a home made fresh soup,Muggy conditions would be usually home made lemon 🍋 ade.iced lollies sorbet..

Mushrooms are an aquired taste are they. Glad you enjoyed the vlog x
Great video but a bit too isolated for me you are very brave
I think you have a best-selling book in the making. . . . 'Alternative Dog Walks Vol. 1' 😊
Haha I like it!
Haha I like it!
Nice Aran Island sweater.
It's not the real deal I'm afraid just a lookalike! But thankyou x
@BeckandBeyond I have a Cardigan one with a hoodie. Worth every cent, pro tip; buy in the Summer and get sale prices. Best of luck with the Channel.
I think you have the same car as me. Just bought it. How are the seats doing with a dog on them. I have a boxer and worried about scratches on the seats😮
I bought a cover for the seats so all good so far!
Becky I think I may have gone there? Was it a Italian POW camp please?
It was mainly Italian and Ukranian prisoners initially yes. X
@BeckandBeyond I learnt more of you cheers Becks, I can remember some white toil thingies on the floor peering though the weed growth probably the toilets block etc they trust must have been baby trees then they got taller to hide it all I suppose....?
Ps I hope you got your motion lotion...
Don't forget Alnwick, beautiful at Christmas ❤
I really want to go to Alnwick sadly I'm not sure I'll get chance for this Christmas. X
@BeckandBeyond it will be there come Spring, it's beautiful when everything comes into bloom.You have the fantastic Castle over shadowing things.Beautiful ,Becks x

Isn’t it interesting, welcome to a woman’s world! Why can’t we go where we want without the thought of being attacked?
Thankyou I will, it really wasn't too isolated there were lots of walkers about
You sound creepy!
How do you know she is single? Assumptions
@@michelles2299 Because she was there on her own
Well done and just a dash of venture! 🥸
Great video but a bit too isolated for me you are very brave
It isn't as isolated as the video portrays there were plenty of people about.
