Just to say....its not Christchurch college.....just Christchurch

Thank you, mate for the wonderful video. I passed by Magpie Lane dozens of times but never know there's Kybald Street (shame). Will definitely make a turn next time to appreciate Kybald Twychen for at least a good minute!

I used to work in that very Sainsbury’s supermarket when I lived in Oxford back in 2000 it’s a real walk down memory lane seeing it

KRO

Birmingham city stickers that's so offensive .

Id be fuming too

I would be paranoid about a vandalism charge

Would never try this with John and his ill mother mate

I just saw this on TV! How don't you have more subs?! 😂

That was fascinating. Sooner you than me, and the low bit in the middle was a bit scary, but I was delighted to see the light.

Live this moment

It's on A&E's Neighborhood Wars!!

Explored this in a canoe back in 2013! Glad to see it's still navigable!

Where exactly is the entrance? I know the exit in Christchurch but I've not been able to find the other end...

It's a terrapin, Trachemys scripta scripta. Sadly many were dumped into waterways the 90s after the teenage mutant ninja turtles craze faded and people discovered they grow quite large, live a long time and need proper taking care of. Terrapins struggle in our winters and it's too cold for them to breed, but I still like seeing them. I've spotted one in the wolvercote lakes and another in the bit of river that runs behind Swan St.

The deep chisel marks in the stone are a key for render so at some point in its history it would have had a lime render, the roughness of the stone would itself act as a key so none would be there.

The superb Oxford folk band Magpie Lane are named after this little street.

Nice English flag all done my alleyway naw boss hahaha

Do you still prank your angry neighbours ?

Metaphorically speaking this back door was breaking into Christ. In context Henrietta was obviously a lady and Charles definitely wasn't having a gay relationship with Henry. This back door takes on a whole new meaning when you view the bigger picture.

So officially we the public are told by Historical Britain that "Nothing can now be seen" of the once giant Abbey. Is this a blatant play on words while simultaneously denying you and me knowledge and access to sites buried beneath our streets? Liverpool Town Hall is a perfect example where no sensible explanation is given to why the first floor of the building is below street level. Incidentally thousands of houses are found right throughout Liverpool where it appears what was the first floor, becomes the ground floor. Often we see steps leading UP from the street to access the newly located front door.

Fucking brilliant!!

Can’t be happier to find your channel!! Watching from outside Worcester, Massachusetts, USA. About to binge watch the rest but wanted to pause to thank you, Stuart, for peaking my interest in English history

Would this be a safe place to go during a nuclear attack?

It's about time Dez got another prank init?

Your video was stolen by some guy/news company I have no idea to be honest but their video got way more views than yours! I don't know if you gave them permission but I wanted to tell you to be sure..

😂🤣😎

Great video. Dinton is close to where I live, was really interesting :)

Fascinating, real visual history. You have a nice easy style of presenting too! I would agree about the Ano (AD)

Hi Stuart, it's Dan who worked with today. I have thoroughly enjoyed the videos I've watched thus far! It's great that you are able to convey 'ordinary' human history in Oxford. It's inspired me to look more into the history of my home town Crawley. All the best

Nice, love to no any info, or if you could do follow up on book of Jewish origin found on the roof?? 👍🏼

Mate what a find, really cool. Felt privileged watching this. Thanks Stuart 👍🏻

Really enjoyed this! Nice one Stuart 👍🏼

Excellent video, worked from/at St Aldates for 30yrs and never knew of the Trill Mill Tunnel

No H2S gas testing kit

Good to see your videos are back.... the cellar looks the absolute spit of my mums in Crescent road ... keep up the good work

We still use scales with weights today!

That was insane I wouldn't go there so thanks for the adventure

Interesting spot and find. Won't the light get bumped in the first 5 mins in that location?

Exit is in Christ Church Meadows, which is accessible by the public (i.e. not private).

Fascinating. I and a group of fellow Christ Church undergraduates made this journey about 1970. We took two canoes we hired from Folley Bridge. In those days the entrance was open - no gratings - and you could lower a canoe into it. The water was deeper when we went. west gate had not been built, otherwise I suspect we wouldn’t have got through. There was a structure, which we assumed was the foundations of a road where the stream was a box section. We had to lie down in the canoes to get through. We came out in the memorial gardens and took the canoes down the stream to the Thames, returning them to Folley Bridge from the opposite direction we had left.

What a proper legend you pal, might only be small deeds but the people you helped will always remember. Your mum will be looking down you with a massive proud smile, 👍🙏🕊

I thought you guys flip people off by putting your pinky or pointing finger up, not the middle finger 🖕 🖕 😂🤣
