    A fascinating look at the old church. It always amazes me that you find such appropriate music for all your videos. Most enjoyable.

    I very much enjoy old churches ruins or intact, not religious at all. Enjoy the architecture and beauty of the buildings. Bolton Abbey is about 5 miles away from my home, majestic ruins and a beautiful church still used for worship. Thanks once again for the lovely video
    Stay well 👍

    A sad remnant. I live close to this area and often walk around it. Thanks for showing us it!

    I love old overgrown church ruins like that. There's an aura of gothic romance to them.

    I love ruins, i always imagine what they were like with people coming and going everyday. I agree that with a bit of TLC it could be opened to people,. they don't need to leave it for wild life ( if they are) as there is plenty of trees and other greenery around

    A lovely look around the old church.
    Tapophilia is the study of grave yards/gravestones. Graves at the church wall, more often than not, are people who haven't been christened, or were paupers.

    Ant, great watch. I always enjoy vid's on old village churches, but when the church is abandoned and, in this state, what happens to all the gravesites and headstones? Every grave no matter how old represents a person's life --- a mother or father, a son or daughter, every headstone has a backstory. Thanks to Ant for helping to keep history alive.

    Hi Ant,another great video,thanks. I'm not particularly religious,but it is sad to see a lovely historic building left to fall apart basically.

    Great video as always Ant!. Fascinating to see this one. It's a shame you couldn't get to the top of the staircase but good not to disturb the birds!
    Plenty of great church ruins like this I can recommend when you get back to Norfolk I have been trying to visit them all over the last few years but I believe there is around 100 so haven't got to all of them yet!

    Hi Ant, WoW! Beautiful church. Something different, I like it, I would love to see more, maybe on your walks we could see more of your country. Thanks

    Nice explore. I like a creepy old abandoned church! As someone mentioned earlier, I too would love to see it restored but it would cost a fortune and I don't think many go to church much these days. It also seems to be a bit out of the way.

    Many thanks for this excellent video, we are off to Wales tomorrow and have got a few old churches on my list to visit/photograph and hopefully use my new drone for some aerial shots, like raywood569 below I do like my old remote churches/ruins etc

    I am originally from Waklefield and as young uns, we used to explore around Heath old hall, we never used to go after dark. Scared of the ghost there. !!!! Is the hall still there or long gone.

    Hey Ant you missed the remains of an old house called The Kennels very close to Colwick Hall. It can be found in the woods to the left at the start of your vid. When you walked around the church you walked over the graves of murdered woman and her 3 children. Killed in 1844 and buried on the north side of the yard.

    Local Volunteers and various Organisations, should be given access and allowed to preserve all these buildings around UK

      I absolutely agree. Pictures I saw of this from 4 years ago show it completely clear inside

      Colwick Country Park look after this church, the stately home and estate, e.g. Nottingham County Council. Anyone can visit, Or go to the racetrack for a flutter on the horses. Holme Pierrepont water centre is also there

    • @TheSumner60

      Thanks for the video, a 5 minute walk from my front door.
      I think Nottingham City Council look after Colwick Park.
      The water sports centre at Holme Pierrepont is in Rushcliffe on the other side of the river, you can’t access it through Colwick, be good if you could.
      You wouldn’t know from this video this is now quite an urban park really, sat just off Colwick Loop Road, it’s a lovely local resource that needs to be cherished.

    Sensitively handled Ant. Always seems a bit disrespectful that the headstones are removed and paraded up against a wall, does anyone know the reason (sincerely hope it's not H & S in case someone trips over, although I wouldn't be surprised.🙄) Keep coming with these little lost gems👍👍👍👍👍
