I so much wish things were still built the way they were in the 1800 , early 1900 , so much character & you can see & feel the pride that went into building it. As always , thank you Gareth & Phil, wishing you both the absolute very best.🙏❤
The way you say the rivers name is "Kay-re-og" 👍 If you carry on walking down the canal where you turned back up to go to the station, after about a mile you come to the point where the trains and canal used to meet, theres still a bit of the architechture in place and a sign board explaining it all, I think theres a gun club or something on the other side of the canal as last time I went down there I thought I was under siege lol The big smelly factory spoiling the view is Kronospan, they manufacture all the MDF, chipboard, laminate flooring and kitchen worktops you see in Wickes, B+Q etc, dont park your car near there for too long or it'll be covered in wood dust
Thanks for bringing all this history to us. Love listening and learning and it’s great to read the comments where people add extra info and suggestions. Been watching these since the beginning but the quality of the shots and footage gets better and better. Fantastic job Gareth (and Phil) x
Nice one Gareth and Phil,I’ll never forget breaking down in that tunnel back in our boating days.Lucky there is towpath,but bow hauling the boat through nearly crippled me and the wife. I believe that the flowing water ends up serving the town of Crewe.
Great little video that was Gareth. Incredible architecture. That canal cutting when you came out of the tunnel looked pretty impressive to. Dug out by hundreds of men with shovels and wheelbarrows. Unbelievable Jeff!
@@IckeWalks don’t tell anyone coz I’ll be seen as a tin foil hat wearing weirdo lol…I think some of this stuff was built way way before we’re told. And the “engineers” that take the credit, were blokes that came along (who still knew what they were doing) and improved or changed things to suit. But, I’m nuts.
Well, I couldn't make it at 2:00 AM my time this morning for the live event but it was a great segment with the dueling ducts and the duel country stomp.
I wonder if you can hear those boots tramping on the tunnel wall when it's really dark! Amazing architecture, I think there would have been a statue in that space too.
Looking forward to watching this walk and the history you brilliantly provide. I hope you dont mind me making suggestions for future stomps-just thought about the Selby Coalfield and the sites of the coal mines that were there and what remains there are to explore. There was 5-6 collieries there and im sure theres things left to see. Also, again apologies if ive missed it, theres the Stockley trail that runs from Glapwell/Bramley Vale pits to Bolsover pit and then theres the Markham colliery site thats now Markham Vale. Keep up the fascinating work and just a BIG thank you for creating such videos for us to enjoy.
So glad you dont mind the suggestions 😁 theres an old railway near where i am now at Brieghton-the Brieghton to Market Weighton rail trail that might be worth a stomp. Take care good buddy and if i think of any other stomps ill let you know.
I've been through by boat several times, but your drone footage really helps to work out what is where. Just a thought on your title - the aqueduct and tunnel are Georgian, not Victorian - they were built more than 15 years before Queen Victoria was even born, and 35 years before she became Queen!

I know what you mean. We've very much become a "that'll do" society.

Cheers for this. One to explore more!
We are indeed! Thanks for the feature! 😁Maybe see you again when more is happening here, keep in touch. Thanks! 👍
That would be great!
Stunningly beautiful! Thank you for bringing this to us! ❤

Thank you! Trying to improve with some new editing software soon too. Just working out how to use it! x

Does it really? I didn't know that. Ah, mate, that must have been a nightmare! In the dark, too!
Thank you very much for showing us amazing places in your country !! Best wishes from San Luis, Argentina.
Oh wow. Hello from England!

I'm starting to think ET did it to be honest, mate.

@@LeiceExplore You sound dangerous, mate.

Thanks mate.
Top Dollar that lads 👍

Yeah, I definitely think so, too.
Would have been good to explore the Glyn Valley tramway a bit more but there are very few remains if you take onto account how long it was.
Another time, mate!

I really appreciate the suggestions! Always looking for new rope explores!

I believe that is called dropping a bollock, Peter.
I've edited the description. Haha. Thank you for the heads up.
