Hahaha, great video, thought it was the Demon Headmaster at the end there. Subbed already. I'm sure you found the customs officers stash of brandy lol. Keep them coming 👍👍👍👍
Thanks @thebeatentrack156 - glad you enjoyed it and thanks for your ongoing support. It did occur to me afterwards that I should have adjusted the hypnosis to account for those already subbed - maybe hypnotically instructing them to make their friends and family subscribe. There's no limit to what I can achieve now with this new found power!
Nice bakelite contraption. My grandparents had a two-digit phone number which (probably) means only a handful of people had had a telephonic instrument before them . Thank you for attaching my channel link to your video, though I don’t know what I’ve done to deserve it. I’m massively jealous of your ability to step out of the front door and stumble into a stone Roman tomb and with carvings-strewth! However, there are consolations, down here in the south we have had two days of August-like weather. Scorching. I think it is a hare, my spirit animal.
@AllotmentFox - no worries - all the amateur TH-cam antiquarians together. Solidarity! Glad you liked the tomb - I've been to some great places filming these, but this one was really special. Whilst all the others have been robbed of their stones, this one has somehow survived and the carvings are the icing on the tomb cake. As you could probably tell, it's pretty much in the middle of nowhere and I think that stretch of Dere Street fell out of use at least 300 years ago. I hadn't thought of a hare. The ears are right for that. I don't get why other antiquarians over the years are so convinced it's a bull. Hey, what do they know. Thanks for watching and commenting.
@@WC21UKProductionsLtd did you see the Time Team episode where they found a Roman Christian burial but with a stone with the name of the local Roman-British god in it? I’d start bawling if I ever found anything like that.
@@AllotmentFox yes I do remember that - a real “punch the air” moment. I’m fascinated by the meshing of Roman Gods with local British ones - they were very canny with their integration.
Brilliant! What a great find, I feel quite privileged getting this inside track to these antiquities which aren't well covered elsewhere. I really liked the cuts to your office / editing studio, and also the tweed close-ups! Your brolly looks rather well made and sturdy too. To my shame I have owned a couple of (at least semi respectable) stick umbrellas (from the famous James Smith & Sons) but by the time I had left the second of them in a pub I was a little reluctant to buy a third. Oh by the way I thought it would be good to establish some alternative means of communication other than the comments section, so I am going to try and send an email shortly...
Thank you @Tweedyoutdoors - I do like these less well known sites and hope that others do too, so it’s great to get that feedback. I’ve had that sort of experience with really expensive umbrellas too. My brown one - which came from a shop in an arcade near Saville Row - bit the dust at Birdoswald Roman fort earlier this year. I got this new one off the internet and am really pleased with it - I’ll find the name of the company and share it with you. Thanks for the email too - I have sent a reply and it will be good to have a chat offline, so to speak!
Thank you @SamWalksALot - I’ve got a picture of an artist’s interpretation which I will post in the community tab at some stage this week. I think it’s a pretty good stab at what the 3 tombs would have looked like. Presumably they’re the tombs of noted solders.
@SamWalksALot I nearly included it in the video, but didn’t want to get a copyright strike! I’ve seen a couple of channels have to take things down lately!
Well I be smacked, gob wise. I didn't know we had any of them in our fair isle. We haven't got any here in Devon (or we might, I dunno) If we did I spect they would have been turned into holiday home for grockles. One thing, how'd you manage to keep that hat on in the wind? Glue?
@keithm603 - yes it's great and out of many fascinating sites I've visited, this one is now up there with the best. Mind boggling that it has survived! To my knowledge, it is the only UK survivor with stones - plenty of scope for AirBnB! I do lose my hats occasionally, but at the moment, I think my head has got a bit fatter - so that helps. Thanks as ever for watching and commenting.
Hi, you know that head looked like a mountain goat to me, not sure you get them in the UK, must look up the proper name. The stone tomb must have been for a very important person, its enormous and in really good condition. Well done for getting out there in those conditions much appreciated!! I'm off to see the Temple of Debod in a couple of days. An Egyptian temple saved from the Aswan Reservoir and donated to Spain and located near the Royal Palace in the centre of Madrid All the best!! PS: You might have hypnotised me into unsubscribing😮😮
Thanks - this is one of my favourite locations. An incredible survival for this country. It could be a goat. Or a donkey. Or a hare! I love that it’s there and still clear. Just think of the changes in the last 2,000 years and all the while he’s been there…. Bit jealous of your temple visit - sounds great. The fact it was rescued makes it all the better. I suspect the tomb was a military top dog, by the way. This was such a remote outpost - way north of the wall.
@@WC21UKProductionsLtd Cabra montess: Iberian ibex, also known as the Spanish ibex, Spanish wild goat and Iberian wild goat. I've walked past the Temple before without realising what it was😮😮. I feel ashamed to be going without my Tweed jacket, I hope they let me in!!
I watched this one months ago ...I have never been jealous of seeing a grave next to a road...If anything, it makes me slow down when driving. Better than a speed cam is a bunch of flowers on a tight corner to ensure one is road safe 🤣....Maybe it was a warning for road rage chariot drivers.
One of my personal favourites this one - I really enjoyed visiting this roadside tomb. A very rare survival in Britain, but of course, such tombs lined the roads to all towns in Roman Britannia.

Let's hope it's as successful with the non-subscribers then. Non-subees?

Why thank you @musted5502 - here's to the next 30!
Great stuff! I hadn't even heard of that one!
Thanks @MattMesserPics - really enjoyed visiting this incredible survival!
Great camera work despite the conditions!

I'm surprised Romans did not bury folks in the middle of the road to use them as speedbumps leading into a settlement.
