- I am again with the Osmo DJI camera filming another POV walk. Sit back and let me take the strain as I climb the steep hills at Cissbury, near Worthing, West Sussex as I search for the neolithic flint mines and the wild horses that graze there.

I film with a Gopro and Zyiun Smooth 3 Gimbal.

That was fascinating as you said. Just so amazing how they did all that digging & fort building w/ primitive tools!!! & what a way to end it w/ the beautiful horses (I gotta say they seemed the most chill wild horses I'd ever seen though😄🐎).
Loved the perspective the new camera gave (almost like watching in 3D). The first part through the small wooded area opening into a meadow reminded me of the hill above the college I attended that I used to hike. Very lovely - thanks for the memory!
The horses are lovely. Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks as ever for watching. :)
One of my favourite walks is up Cissbury, from both Findon car parks and from the other side.
Another charming walk .. thankyou once again !!
Tamara Gostelow My pleasure as ever.
Stunning views from up the top. I noticed that the coppiced woodland had very little undergrowth under the trees which I think is quite unusual...
I have only been to Cissbury ring once and it was for a wide game at night so it’s great to see it in the day!
MrGreatplum It is a very magical place. If ever you come down again I will show you round!
Great video! I've always wanted to visit Cissbury Ring!
You should!
Another really interesting video Richard thanks. I've climbed to Chanctonbury but looking at that walk up and the opportunities for great photographs I can see I'm going to have to do Cissbury too.
Dave Godden It is a great walk around there with fabulous views. well worth a look. Thanks for watching.
The Flint Mines were dug long before the hill fort was built, the ramps and ditches cut through the tops of several mines.
Oh how fascinating, thanks for correcting me. :)
Very nice.
Makes you wonder what the names of the tribes were in Neolithic times and how many there were of them. It is a place that l will make an effort to visit one day after this lock down. It's hard to gage the depth of those pits due to being so overgrown. I wish more people would give your video a thumbs up as they well desurve it.
I liked the video. It sure is a very enjoyable walk.
Thanks Julio. I am lucky to have such wonderful countryside on my doorstep. When I was a kid I used to come up here and run up and down the entrances to the old flint mines. They weren't over grown then as they are now. I used to think there were bomb craters until I learned otherwise. A kid's imagination, eh?
Love the point of view walks
Thanks Richard. I try to please.
Love it Richard... thank you... 🤗👍🏻😘
Thanks Patti - thanks for your continual support and comments. Very kind. I do appreciate it.
Hi Richard . fantastic & very interesting -we dont live far away / lower salvington & we have been for a walk once since moving here . Please do inform all as to the place were you parked the car & walked up to the rings -it looks a lot less hilly than the route we took. Have to follow you & see where you go next . Thank you for sharing -so good to have a natural person as a commentato.

looks alot warmer than our walk recently richard..it must have been a bit warm walking up there
Oh it was lovely - I go to Cissbury many times! :)
Had to look it up after you said "Neolithic", thinking you may have meant "Neanderthal". It turns out that I was totally wrong and "Neolithic" is more closely defined as "new stone age", loosely 10,200-8800 BC. (Wikipedia) But all over the world as a transition period from hunter/gatherer to "farming". I have no pretensions about my knowledge of "Neolithic" which is why I had to revert to Wiki.😃
Mad. You're wary of cows who are as docile as could be, yet you blithely walk up to a bunch of wild horses who are notoriously skittish, unpredictable, and utterly dumb. Baffling
Life is baffling!
