      Thanks Alice, researching these places gets quite addictive, there's just so much interesting history and stories to be told, we really had to hold back alot on this one with it being so huge!
      Thanks for watching as always 👍😊

      Thanks Autumn, we really had to hold back with the amount of information and history here as the place is so big! It really is a gem of a place to visit and surprisingly quite unknown..
      Thanks for watching and supporting us as always 😊👍

      This really is a fantastic place and surprisingly fairly unknown considering how substantial it is.
      The work they've put into it since we first visited over 6 years ago now is quite outstanding!
      Thanks for watching, I'll pass on your compliments about the camera work to Stu, I'm sure he'll be quite glad you hear it 😁👍

      Thanks! We really had to go back as our previous video as so awful! 😆
      Really appreciate you watching and commenting 😊👍

    The quality of production on these videos is now extraordinary Em and Stu. The opening 60 seconds is like something straight out of NETFLIX (drone footage, cuts and transitions). I know that modern cameras / phones and editors are very powerful, but the sheer amount of care and effort that you put into these videos is incredible,. And all I have to do is kick back with my morning coffee and enjoy them ! A very sincere thank you to you both !!!

      Thank you for your lovely positive feedback.. We'd like to think we've come along way from our early videos of bad sound quality, shaky footage and dodgy editing choices, some of which were truly awful! 😂
      We don't have fancy expensive cameras or P.C editing software as sadly the channel doesn't make us enough money to afford to do so, we've just learnt over the years from our mistakes and tried to improve on them, and we've certainly had alot of mistakes to learn from! Hopefully we'll continue to improve and making more enjoyable and interesting videos and maybe one day we'll be able to invest in some better technology which would certainly make our lives easier and editing abit quicker.. Thanks again for watching and taking the time to comment, it's nice to know some people do actually appreciate the huge amount of time we have to put into making these videos especially when of course we both also have full time jobs and families etc.
      All the best Em and Stu 😊👍

    Still think i was the one that got that gun en placement fenced off like that because i sat on the edge of it for some photos the first time i went there (the council owned part lol) 😅
    I need to go back and make a new video there !!
    Really enjoyed it and you fit sooo much historical value into the video :) enjoyed alot

      Thanks Ben we now know who to blame then! 😆 In the past we'd walked around the whole site as u know it wasn't exactly difficult back then, shame they won't let you as there's alot of really interesting bits the public don't get to see.. This place never gets boring, I'm sure we'll be back in the future 😊👍
