Great video, really enjoyed this. Would love to visit this area next time I come back to the UK. Looks like great walking country. Thanks for your time and effort making this. 🏴🇦🇺
Many thanks! Yes, I covered many miles carrying tripod and camera kit that day - some beautiful trails and what Alf Wight (James Herriot) called "the finest view in all of England".
Thanks for this super video . Maybe the most beautiful battlefield in England? Didn’t Edward leave the great seal of England behind in his haste to flee?
I'm a bit cheesed off with not knowing any of this 6 years ago when me daughter took me over the Cleveland Way. Why no signs to this chapel..... the bus to Helmsley took us past Byland and then the side trip to Rievaulx ( which should have a cheap entry for those who can only stay 15 mins ) but nothing about the chapel. And nothing at Cold Kirby either.
Yes, there are very few sign posts - none to John Bunting's chapel, and the new information board and memorial stone at Sutton Bank are the only real indications of the battle itself.
Their forays into Northern England were quite incredible really, you get the sense that their tactics really frustrated the English. But aye, we owe a lot to Mary Queen of Scots
@@Church_Searcher I grew up in Thornaby ( Cambridge road, opposite St Paul's ) but Catholic so it wasn't appropriate that we have anything to do with something run by the "prody dogs". I always wondered about the supposed Anglo-Saxon links especially as we were told the Normans had wrecked everything in the North as some part of the Conquest. Then there's Kildale... definitely Norman? In NZ now and there's a small church down the road with an interesting feature....musket ports!! How Xian is that!

Great video mate, happy to see you’ve made such a good video on this after our messages following your Flodden video 👏👏
Thanks Paul, great shout on your part - certainly got my step count up! Planning to a vid on the church at the Battle of Clifton Moor in Dec.

Many thanks for the kind words! Apparently so - he was definitely in quite a hurry!

Long story short in 1603 King James 6th of Scots took over England!

Thornaby green?
Good shout, thanks for the recommendation - links to Captain Cook's mother as I recall?
