Great trip Brendan! They will love next week! - I didn't even notice the boy racers! I was fast asleep! Many more adventures to come !
It was a brilliant trip mate 🙂 yeh you were in a deeeeppppp sleep 🤣 great trip!
Can't beat an adventure with steve tell you what he moves fast brendan 😂
Another great video mate, always look forward to the next one
Please keep them coming! See you soon and take care
Thanks buddy 🙂 loads more to come, hope you enjoy the next video of the peak district 👍
Mental hospitals are now called the House of Commons.
Another great video, thanks as always Brendan
Brill video! Love the Peak & Lud’s Church is a great walk (when you don’t get lost in the dark like I did 😂)! Can’t wait to see all the other adventures of ‘24, you have in store :)
Thank you and yeh there was some beautiful stops in this one 🙂 plenty more to come in 2024 👍
i have a 20 foot RV and sometimes do an overnight camp around my area. i gotta tell ya my friend that i watch your channel all the time and have convinced my wife to get out and do it more. thanks for the inspiration mate. by the way, your channel is the closest thing I've found to Doc Martin. cheers from across the pond my friend. love the channel.
Aup, i regularly camp in the Peak District, Castleton (Mamtor) is busy and noisey. I'd recomment Wyming brook not far from Hathersage, or A road called, the Dale at Stanage edge. Both are good park ups.
Yeh a few vans there that night mate but the problem was with the boy racers.. noisy so and so's. Thanks for the park up suggestion 🙂 I'll pop it on my list 👍
@@BrendanExplores 🤙
Nice to se u on the road again brandon keep up with the good vios
Thanks mate, appreciate you tuning in and joining me 🙂👍
Love the videos man, always look forward to the cooking, so cosy I love it! Keep them coming!
Cheers mate 🙂 yeh me too! I love cooking in the van 😁
class vid !!! hope you managed to get some kip Brendan. Cheers !!!
Great video fellas lovely part of the country
My favourite moment of this film was the random bloke carrying a microwave across the street to harmonica music. Im glad to see the people of Buxton (lovely place BTW) are not too posh to carry their own small appliances. 🤣
Great level of detail on the information. "A bunch of rocks" was very accurate ;D cheers mate, greetings from good ol germany !
Love your videos and your sense of humour!
I live in Buxton and love it, shame we didn't bump into you!
I hope that guy enjoys his new microwave 👀. Fantastic video Brendan as ever, good to see Steve again 👌👌👌👌
Thanks mate, glad you enjoyed it 🙂👍
I stumbled upon your videos a while ago and I'll tell you every video that you put out thanks for such great content love from USA
Live in the Peak District, love the video......lovely scenery as well 😊 younger brother works at selecta Tyre, tyre business in Buxton
Great vid again Brendan. Pity about your broken sleep. Look forward to next episode.
Thank you John 👍 yeh the next night was even worse.. 😔 you'll see in the next one
Great video loved the loony bin 🤪 great food well done xx 👍👌♥️xx
Thanks Heather and it was an interesting stop for sure 👍 glad you enjoyed watching 🙂
Great cideo guys i love how you two are such great friends and can bounce of each other. Its a great location and so much to see. Did you eat all that cake 🫣 🤣 mam tours a great walk access along the disused old road. That park up is well known for boy racers. Great trip cant wait for part two. Stay safe guys 🫶🙏👍
Ahhh thanks for the heads up mate 👍 looks popular with the van lifers but it's a shame it's ruined by the boy racers.. glad you enjoyed the video and there is plenty more to come 😁
Hi thanks for the vlogs!! I live just outside Buxton and work in Buxton....in answer to some of your questions....Buxton has very mixed areas... some more affluent and some really not!! You parked outside the Crescent Spa Hotel which has only, in fairly recent times, been renovated into a hotel. It has previously had a varied history including hotels, part of a hospital and then offices etc for the council. History waffling over 😂😂
Thank you very much for the info! Very interesting to know some history 🙂 so that is a hotel then? I thought it looked like that 👍
Found your videos the other night now I’m addicted! 😊
Welcome to the family mate 🙂 glad your enjoying the videos 👍
Done that walk to the wreck site last year! Heck of a walk, but very eerie up there...
I love how your reaction to a derelict morgue is the exact opposite of mine 🤣
🤣🤣 I know mate lol. That was one creepy place..
Brendan, all you just think about food is and don’t like all these long hikes. lol you crack me up! All in good fun. ❤❤
You should have neen really brave and camped next to that morgue and had a good look around at night. That would have been very amusing although clean pants may have been needed. That steak looked spot on, even if it wasnt well done. 😂. Keep the videos coming pal.
Gradbach and the Roaches are our 2nd home. We hiked 10.6 miles there last monday and again on Wednesday. It's awfully muddy right now, though, due to us having so much rain. Love luds church too, and those bunch of rocks you walked up are known as the castle.
Good video mate, not far from me the peak district isn't! Well it's even closer to you actually thinking about it! 😂 looking forward to next weeks, I haven't been to Bakewell for ages and I'm hoping you had a Bakewell tart too! If not I recommend you drive back asap 🤣
Brilliant mate
Cheers mate 🙂 glad you liked it 👍
I live a couple of miles from st edwards,the church is currently for sale. My husband worked in the hospital til it closed. The water tower is a listed building i believe so it coukdnt be knocked down when thwy started to build the housing on the site. No one wants the morguenso its just been left,also a listed building i think (not sure). Theres also a school and church in leek that are called st edwards. We looked at buying a house on the hospital site but it was just too eery for us and we settled in a nearby village. Many people also wild/stealth camp up the roaches and a few yrs ago there was a huge wild fire from idiots lighting campfires. Theres people who do night checks now,not sure how often. Not a place id like to camp though,i cant cope with the wind at the top lol. Luds church is fantastic in summer,but very sludgy and wet and murky during winter and bad weather. Great video,from a local of the area,i enjoyed it thankyou. Happy travelling.
It's the same up here where I am also our old mental Whittingham Hospital was built in 1873, closed in 1995 and demolised in 2016, A lot of urban explorers used to venture into it, has a dark history behind it and a documentary was made for ITV if I remember correctly.
I might try and find that documentary 👍. Crazy to think it only closed in the 90s.. all the dark stuff that would of gone on. Scary to think about really
@@BrendanExplores It's all on here mate split up into three parts just had a look for it 👍
@@xIDarkSideIx nice one, thanks 👍
Great video brendan liked the walk that you both did Buxton looked nice shame about those cars at the end
Thanks Sally 🙂 yeh Buxton was lovely! Great park up if it wasn't for those boy racers 😔
Welcome 😊
What I do with cheap steak is give a good pounding cut into strips and make up a nice Korean sauce mix cut peppers into strips too some mushrooms etc fry it all up get a good char on it before adding the sauce absolutely delicious.
Buxton has a superb Opera House.. I saw Phantom of the Opera there... it was amazing!
I parked/slept at that spot right behind you in November. A lot of van lifers, and it's generally laid back but very busy at times, so expect cars popping up and down that dead end. I had an ok sleep though when I was there. The peaks are way too busy since 2020, I remember it was a lot quieter before then...
Can’t wait till next weeks episode close to where I live
Bad friends?! No way. Bobby is a treasure for sure.
Yayyyy love the trips with you and Steve n matt.❤ I'm in telford Where's my invite ? Lol I dream of getting my camper van ..anyway I love peak district. Loved bakewell very posh .Shropshire lass Laura xx.
Brendon, you need to watch the TV series from years ago called Bedlam , you’ll enjoy it !
Another great vlog x
Thanks for the suggestion 🙂 and glad you enjoyed the video 👍
Just watching now is the channel Brendan urbex now lol keep going buddy content great and your dad's nuts lol
🤣🤣🤣 yeh had to throw a bit of urbex in there lol
Sounds like boy racers from the sound of them turbos
Live not far away flash village is the highest village in England only a couple of miles from Buxton it regularly gets snowed in .
When you went to the morgue, my brain went to the iron maiden song i think it was called murders in the rue morgue and i think it was on the killers album. I may have got it a bit mixed up.
Martin, manager at Seleta tyre, Buxton... if you go ...tell him his big sister ( erica) knows you 😊 ❤
Will do thanks 🙂👍
Just found the channel and loving you videos so far - but next time let him taste the cake !! We are here for sharing a bite - not describing how fry the cake is - please and thank you :)
LMAO you needed boots for that walk. Shame about the dodgy park-up. Get some burger sauce for those fries..
I most certainly did 🤣 and yeh the boy racers weren't great either. I need to top up my burger sauce lol
Great vid is you van a long wheelbase or short and what do you recon your mpg is 😎👍
We were going to sell our t5 camper and get a caravan.. changed our minds!. Gonna keep our camper the ' enterprise ', and do it up more instead. Pop top etc.
Great video as usual that steak looked lovely for that price what sort was it is matty ok not seen him with you for awhile
That's very much 🙂 yeh I was well impressed with that steak 👍. Matti is all good, he's just not camping and doing any RUclips at the moment
that morge now seems to be a old grow room by the look of all that hydroponics gear on the floor
2.99 for that steak is such a steal
Brendan, you don’t seem to be having much luck lately with your camps, don’t let it put you off though mate. What did you think of the free park up that I emailed to you? Do you think you’ll give it a go?
Keep up the good work pal, stay safe. 👍
The local former lunatic asylum where I live has also been converted to flats/houses. It’s located in Barming near Maidstone and it’s thought it’s where the word Barmy meaning crazy/foolish originated.
I think there fascinating places but some really dark stuff happened in these places back in the day.. crazy to think about it really
I did some off the roofs there and my mum used to work there as carer
Hi brendan. N steve you 2 crack me up ❤😂 luv your adventures with Steve tbh ❤😂 your both mad but I luv ya nuttas lmao 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.keep them coming brendan❤ Laura ❤
6:37 it's called electric shock therapy
Good video mate.
Quick question for you what us your air fryer run off. Do you think it would run off a jackey 1000..tia
The chefree air fryer is 600w and lots of van lifers using them on power units like jackery
@sharonbarlow2262 nice one thanks
Buxton spar. THE crescent.
Another great episode, keep em coming Brendan
Cheers mate, glad you enjoyed it 🙂
I know its great so dont be late,hi ho hi ho hi ho
Hi how are you doing
This asylum looks like a job for the Urbandoned crew.
I wonder how many ghosts are roaming around the grounds
The arche way
I was watching some of ur older videos , when u 1st bought ur van what did u pay for it as I’m thinking of doin a van up an my budget for the van is upto £3k do u think a can is possible for this price etc
Every time I go to one of your links to see the items you’re using they’re always “unavailable” not sure why.? 😢
Aren’t you supposed to let the meat rest so it’s tender! I don’t eat fried steak but !!
You are supposed to yeh but I wanted to cheese to melt onto it 😋
@@BrendanExplores good choice 👍 cheese is supreme 😂
Do you recommend air fryer to cook with
Yes definitely, especially if you have a good quality leisure battery or power bank 🙂
Nice video there is always some idiots who want to spoil the fun at Mam tor
You was lucky really there is a full time van lifer up there in a black Sprinter with side extension on the drivers side of his van who thinks he owns that park up and does criminal damage to peoples vans who doesn’t take liking to
Fires pellets at peoples vans hiding inside his van and when you’re not there does worse
That steak looked like Ghandi’s sandal ….
Hey come on now... 🤣 I'll have you know, it tasted better than that lol
U should get an electric folding bike!!
Welcome to my part of the world. Sounds like your going visiting the plane wreck above my home town Glossop in next weeks video. . Lauds church was used by a group of worshippers in the 1400s who were against the Catholic Church they were called Lollards. Many were executed for heresy. The crescent in Buxton is a spa hotel and jointly owned by the county council and by
Rough council and a holding company. They have recently renovated it. You should have tried the Buxton pudding it’s a very old recipe and the hairy bikers made it when they visited the area. Be interesting to see where Steve takes you next week, but if he didn’t take you to padley gorge then you missed a lovely walk. If your up this way again go for a walk along the torrs riverside park in new mills over the millennium bridge and pop into shaws bakery for a vanilla slice they are the best thing ever. Or the cod and cake chippy in Whaley bridge for not just the best chippy but the homemade cakes are to die for.
Hi Brendan I am not picking on you for this video but your friend Steve thinks it is ok to park on the pavement we are trying to fight on pavement Parking as disabled & blind & visually impaired find it hard getting around But like I said great video apart from him parking like a t
I live 20 mins from Buxton in the plague village, no Buxton isn’t a posh place, usual town council houses, homeless, chavs on the high street 😂
Dogging i reckon😂😂😂
I think you might be right mate 🤣
@@BrendanExplores you always manage to find um
Another great video mate
Im so glad what happened with the window not stopped you going i really enjoy your vids
@@simpz34 they always find me more like! 🤣🤣 Thanks mate 👍 yeh I can't give up what I love 🙂 thanks for the support
They are mainly pot heads having a meet at the bottom of the road in the halford specials
Why is it called the Peak District?
Because there are lots of peaks.
Who’s the guy you’re with and what’s his RUclips channel? xXx
Steve's monumental adventure
Hi sorry to ask this can you please ask stev not to park on the pavement 1:57 in your video as her in doors is disabled & he is parking like a well you work it out we get fed up when park like a well you work it out but great video
That`s not the pavement - that's my driveway!! I was only parked a second...
@@stevesmonumentaladventure well from you hiding from 1:44 look to me a pavement just saying
@@stevesmonumentaladventure Ps I do hope you got council planning to say the public pavement is your driveway
Try millions of mouths, but most ppl collect their weekly water from the tap in big containers.
About livin in a old mental asylum hell no .the cruelty that went on in some of these facilities is cruel and sad .❤
That steak would cost me $25 in California. lol!
While I enjoy watching your you tube, regrettably unless you stop using the words God, Jesus and Christ which I find very offensive, I will regrettably stop watching also I will stop recommending your channel to family and friends
Get a life 😂
😂😂
There's always one 🤦♀️
Yeah, boy racers are a nightmare, you get them Everywhere 😞
