- The second episode of A Journey Through Wales about the wonderful town of Llangollen. This was the town made famous 200 years ago by the staggeringly well-known Two Ladies whose eccentric life-style attracted the great and the good of Regency Britain. Many centuries earlier this idyllic spot in the Dee valley had worked its magic on St Collen after whom the settlement is named. Today's Llangollen continues to charm and produce some remarkable individuals.
Brilliant account of the 2 ladies , in hindsight what a brave couple they were , i visit Woodstock here in Ireland sometimes , a ruin now , but their presence is there im sure of it, they found peace in Llangollen and had a happy life together, women ahead of their time and they had an attraction to them that few possess, I would have loved to have met them ,
Lovely lovely lovely - thank you for this fine film....much love to all from another magical village, Carmel by the Sea xoxo
I love forest fresh air harmonious life! Best medicine
Nowhere so magical as Wales, it's been forever since we were there, thnx for this enchantment
We spent all of our family holidays there and most of our weekends when I was a child. Now in my sixties, well travelled and living abroad, it's still one of my favourite places.
Me and my brother used ride horses across the aquaduct pulling horse drawn boats in the 70s, Plas newydd the home of the two ladies was our play ground as kids, absolutely great town, i also sang in the church choir and played in the local silver band as a child great memories
I have been to that house. I'm Welsh, from Gower. It's worth a visit.
Fascinating thank you
I was reading a history of the British forces in Africa in the late 1870's and there were so many welsh soldiers that had the same last name they gave them numbers
Muy interesante la historia de las dos damas y hermoso lugar para visitar.

Wonderful Interpretation,
Thanks for the Video ❤
Great 👌 well done for letting us see the other side of the Global,, watching from Kenyan highlands 🤣
They must have had some money of their own. I can’t believe that other people paid for that huge house, the maintenance of it, the servants wages, the buying of curios for their collections that grew over the years, and the tools and other expenses needed to make a garden. The description of their daily activities seemed to say that they did no actual work of any kind, and there’s no way their one female servant did all the housework and cooking! To run a huge mansion like that took a small army of servants including gardeners. If their families cut them off, where did all their money come from? We’re all the letters they wrote actually begging letters?
The Butlers of Kilkenny , the Earls of Ormond , where Eleanor came from were rich aristocrats and the Ponsonbys , lesser aristocrats were well off, thats where it came from old boy. Their families loved them , just the societal norms of the day didnt allow for such relationships in Ireland at that time, thankfully they found Llangollen
No please watch documentary it will explain
beautiful area
good work
Wonder full raph
Superb my dear ❤️
Super
Thou shalt make unto thee no graven images!
Good 😊
I Love the Anglican church, all inclusive, God Does Not Discriminate in his Love, neither should we
You are absolutely correct, God is all inclusive in his love, however, unrepentant sin separates us from our God.
@@leeanngraham5035 amen sister
it looks like new zealand south island
????? Wish they would show the cottage...as I watch the documentary so looked this up as the cottage was now a museum?? Didn't show around the cottage and the famous entrance arch from the crime war?? 😢
The only one we are to esteem is Jesus, not anyone else
Up to you, mate. No one is stopping you.
You, not we. You don’t speak for everyone.
Stop preaching, it isn’t your place.
@@rowan7658 the only authority I am under is Yahushua's and he has called me to go into all the world to preach His gospel, for he is with me, therefore, if he is with me who can be against me! For He has called all, out of the darkness into his light!
@@janjohns2457 well good for you, but you must understand that there are a lot of people who DO NOT WANT TO HEAR IT. We have other religions, or other thoughts, and those are just as good if it makes you a better person, and thats all that matters.
“We never knew if their relationship was sexual” - and yet they entertained with Anne Lister! And they were buried together! Please don’t erase significant and important LESBIAN (yes! I said it!) relationships in history with terms that gloss over what was actually happening.
Well, truth is only they can know the nature of their relationship. But
I think the amount of love they put in that house really shows their love for each other. That and the fact that they slept in the same bed lmao
They were also buried together with Mary Carryl their housekeeper. And I don't know much about Anne Lister, but I doubt the Ladies were the only ones who entertained her. On top of that, entertaining someone does not make you the same as that someone. And sleeping in the same bed in that era also does not automatically make you a lesbian. Sisters also shared beds. Look, not saying that they weren't lesbians, the Ladies certainly deeply loved each other, but I'd be a little more hesitant putting a label on someone that they denied themselves, and have no chance of confirming or denying. You wouldn't pull a gay person out of the closet now without their consent, then don't do it to someone you don't for certain know about, and has long since passed away.
@@psyche8 And yet...they were lesbian. No offence, but as a non-lesbian..... you are not qualified to recognise the signs. ;)
@@wordscapes5690 No offence taken, but why are you assuming I'm not a lesbian? I think no one is qualified to say someone is LBGTQ 200 years after the fact, with only third hand evidence to go by, the signs have rather watered down by now. And I'm still not saying they're not either. I'm just saying that maybe other people's sexuality is not something for us to confirm, when they themselves have not.
just started video but greatly sidetracked by the myriad spellings of Llanggollen..guessing the person , or AI who typed closed captioning is NOT from Wales!
Sorry, only just saw your comment after all this time! Thanks so much for drawing our attention to those HORRENDOUS subtitles. Now amended.
like coming paradis. Be happy, even rapture could happen ***
Inclusive is a feature not the Christian faith. Jesus did not want this -read the Bible
Worshipping a statue is not my idea of religion. Have a statue by all means but no way can it be holy.
It is symbolic. It is just used to connect with the divine. It's a means to an end, not the end in itself.
It is a graven image, it is literally being blessed. The whole thing goes against God's second commandment.
@@leeanngraham5035 - Oh for heaven's sake! Stop being so judgmental. Jesus would not agree. Anything that brings people closer to God and spirit would be fine with Jesus. I simply thank God that Jesus was not nearly so uptight and condemning as many who claim to follow him... but don't get the TRUE message at all. And don't quote scripture to me puhleese! The Bible was put together (in it's present form) in 325 AD at the first council of Nicea - by the first 'fathers' of the Catholic church. BTW - I was raised a Catholic - but I am not blinded by ignorance, and I realize there is far more to the story.
A lovely place"!
