  • We visit the historic Stokesay Castle, the finest and best preserved fortified medieval manor house in England. Stokesay Castle was constructed at the end of the 13th century by the wealthy Lawrence of Ludlow, one of the richest men in England at the time.

    When my glasses get all misted I can now understand how my dad was getting so frustrated with cataract. It was so bad that he couldn’t read anything or even watch The telly. Two weeks ago he had his opp and it was 45% successful 💕

    Thank you for another very informative tour. I’am sure that I read somewhere that the ‘scratch’ marks on the stone door way were made by Poppy’s ancestors, the very much feared West highland marauders. 😉🐶

    Another fantastic video Bob and Jenny, what an amazing place, certainly one we need to visit. I worked in Ludlow briefly many many years ago and always promised myself I would return and although I have passed many times through work, I havent managed to stop, so now it's on the top of my to do list its a very interesting town and surrounding area steeped in history.
    Brilliant keep up the good work and stay safe.

    Thank you for taking us along Bob, Jenny & Poppy in your travels. Stay safe, keep well & looking forward to many more new adventures to come, hopefully when we get into some form of ‘normality’. Can’t wait to come into Southport again to relive some wonderful family days out & a little break I had the pleasure of sharing with my mum who passed away April this year xx

    Great video! Amazing place to visit....another sad story of sorts regarding Lawerence de Dudley and his brother John also died too on the same ship as Lawrence

    • @ChrisCowley_Photography
      @ChrisCowley_Photography 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Just realised I got the last name wrong! He was known as Lawrence de Ludlow, not Dudley! Apologies to all the others who commented!

    I’m so glad that y’all are back on the road. I get to armchair travel with y’all since I can’t get out due to 13 months of chemo, radiation and 4 surgeries. I’m slowly back on the road to recovery and your videos being such joy to my days getting to see the sights and your travels. Wesley the Westie and Jezebel the Scotty say woof woof to Poppy. Hello to Jenny and I can’t wait to see the next video. Good for you for deleting the haters and trolls. Stay safe and be well. Happy trails from the north Georgia mountains USA. 🌈🌞😄

    Thank you both. I really enjoyed that. Might not have been a 'real castle', but on a scale that you can see how they would have lived. Many thanks for bringing the heritage to our tablets. Great job !!

    Great video as always Bob - the thumbnail did draw a bit of a chuckle though - I thought Papa Smurf was presenting:-)

    Brilliant Video best one ove seen yet, thank you. After 6 months completing my ancestral family tree, I found out I’m a descendent of the de Lacey family of Stokesay Castle.
    Also what was the music at the beginning of the video.
    Many thanks

    • @BobEarnshawMoHo

    If Jenny puts a twist in the elastic of her face mask before attaching round her ears it sits closer to the face and doesn’t steam up so much. Loved your choice of music, what was the track played when you were in the tower, please?

    • @BobEarnshawMoHo
      @BobEarnshawMoHo  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks, that sounds like a good tio. The music was from AudioHero, Treasured Experience by Grenga Stevens.
