This couple gave the watermill back its dignity. Best restoration episode so far. Thank you.
I’m so addicted to these shows. I’ve been binge watching for a week now. This is probably my most interesting build to watch yet. The most beautiful landscapes ever there! I love the concept of what they will be trying to achieve A couple of lucky people right there. Ok enough of this back to this show lol. Hello from Boston MA USA also.
Lol 😂 2 years later (Sept 2022)...also binge watching ALL of these shows...and also from Boston MA ! This was a really good one 👍
Aloha from Taos, NM; I am moving from Maui, Hawaii to Scotland, so these shows are my work, as I am so excited to take on some derelict treasure to make my own farm home somewhere in Scotland. These shows are pure gold, and the people, so wonderful! Maybe I can share my journey once I get there! For my future "Regenerative Garden Forest Farm Cottage..."
Same here! I work from home so I watch these videos while working and I loooooove them!
Why anyone wouldn't listen to George's ideas, is beyond me. George just gets in and helps, love it. Gorgeous setting, yet, I would worry about flooding. The archive room, George visited, doesn't look fire proof, really is scary that they hadn't done something to shore up that possibility. Too bad they don't revisit this restoration. We need an update.
Indeed a great build so far and would be nice to see the result. On the other side this guy is crazy for doing this, how many times have they been flooded and more important how many more will there be. I grew up near here and there is a good reason that it stood empty for so long.
His heart definitely ruled his head on this one, good luck to them.
I am now watching this another year after these comments. I'd love an update myself as well as you guys. Hope all is well with it. 🙏
This episode leaves a warm glow in your heart. George is genuinely nice guy and a great friendship developed with him and Dave and wife.
I watched an episode where George cried with the husband when he found out the wife’s cancer had come back and she was terminal
I believe he passed away himself not so long ago. It wasn't said what happened. He's still young
I was thinking one could look up THUM's MILL, and find out that way, possibly. I need follow ups as I find the time spent with these incredible people, in every episode, is very moving, and helps me feel connected not only to them, but to my own dreams of demonstrating their level of courage in my own Reno build!
It is now 2021. I looked through tourist and whitewater videos to see if the water wheel was finished. I saw it. It's there. I would love to visit that area. Beautiful!
Thank you for offering ideas for how to get any kind of follow-up...I am grateful!
We had to fish the 1/2 ton wheel axle out of the river at one point though, when it slipped the ropes and shot off down the makeshift platform 😂
Thanks for this!
"..we're reinventing the wheel...." Such a sweet couple. I am SO happy for them, and their new home and project!
Beautiful job. Just wondering, nine years on, how the dear woman is coping with the utter lack of disability provisions in the house... Hope the Council, etc, have allowed them to make the necessary changes. Praying, that she is in fact still mobile and able to enjoy their lovely home.
I absolutely love George Clarke’s energy.. Always so enthusiastic about every single project.. He makes me smile😊 Love him.
He’s so much nicer than the guy who does grand designs. George always holds out hope that it will work and looks on the bright side whereas the guy thta does grand designs puts the buildings and people down constantly
@@jenniferlloyd9245 I love how George often says this is his "favorite," again. I just love him, and his bringing these shows/life adventures to life and sharing them so well.
I love Restoration Man, watching from Puerto Rico. Blessings.
Frank Lloyd Wright’s “Falling Water” has nothing on this mill. Beautiful!
One of my favorites. The love, care, and never give up attitude of this couple is inspiring. Beautiful place, beautiful couple.
Another moving story. I love your natural enthusiasm in every project. Thank you George.
Is there (or will there be) an update episode?
This is by far the most thrilling restauration, a faboulous building on a remarquable natural site! And what a lovely couple!
I admire their "it takes what it takes", no compromise to go faster or cheaper in the building process.
And the result shows it !
I really would like to see the finished mill in- and outside...
(...if they want to show their living space, after all it's privat!)

I'm from Rothbury and can assure you it looks absolutely beautiful, been very well done
One of the best episodes! This show is so refreshing
Love this show!🇨🇦 from Canada...♥️
This was magical!
One of my favorite things to watch . It’s great to see the passion of the people to restore the buildings . Beautiful.
The view is gorgeous. Would like to see an update someday!

Stunning project. Beautiful property in all seasons. I cannot wait for you to return when finished. Christmas will be stunning. Congratulations to this tenacious and deserving couple.
What a beautiful location and what a beautiful job they've done so far! The stairs and floor to millstone height are really clever.
This may be my new favorite house. I love everything about it.🥰
I really wish I could go see it.
Hope the couple alow us to see the end of the project... please!
♡ from Brazil 🇧🇷👏👏👏
Perfect sounds for sleeping soundly.
Super nice people. What a first rate job they did. It is such a huge job, and they did it!!!!! Mighty impressive.
I'd live to see that one finished. There has to be a final/re-visit episode!
Please GOD!!! A follow-up is needed, YES!
you have by far the best restoration channel on youtube.
Beautiful
One of the best episodes.
By the looks of it, Dave & Margaret now rent Thrum Mill out during the holiday seasons
Absolutely beautiful idyllic home, reminds me of the Christmas cards we would get in sunny South Africa after never having seen a whiff of snow and certainly never an ancient mill on a bubbling river. Stunning location and restoration.
i really do love this chancel . love from San Francisco,CA-USA
Lovely couple and beautiful house and restoration.
I Love heavy bespoke carpentry and ye oldie stone work.!
Very good episode
They were lucky to find another to bid on, I wonder how the two of everything went on the one they bought. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💚🥰🤗
I was suitably amazed with the documents room in the Percy / Northumberland castle. I do hope there is adequate security as well as fire suppression to protect all that most valuable history. I don't imagine that those documents have been copied in any manner. Take care of them.
and surprised they weren’t wearing gloves when handling the documents!
Beautiful beautiful place !!
What a lovely, inspirational restoration.
Congratulations to this Family on such an amazing achievement.
Best wishes for good health & prosperity to Dave and Margaret.
So very very beautiful 😍
My favourite restoration. Thank you for uploading it.
I don't know if my weak bladder could handle a home like this.
absolutely magical property..love these videos!!
I love these shows so much. It’s so interesting to learn about the history of all the houses and buildings. Just amazing! ❤❤❤
Personally I love shed and my friend also love it.
Love this one. I look forward to seeing it finished.
Dave is a force to be reckoned with! What an amazing vision and result so far, for this amazing couple. Congratulations!
That is a very beautiful story, looks like my dream)
Hats off to Dave and Margaret Beautiful Job, From Florida . U.S
This is an amazing project. I love it.
Beautiful! One of my favorites! :)
Indescribable! Beautiful beyond words...
Now that is totally amazing good for you
I can’t wait to see it finished. Well done. X
Brilliant.. please update.

What a superb restoration. What a fabulous place to live. We'll do e to them. Love to see it now with the mill wheel working.
Brilliant episode, sad though that so many amazing buildings in Britain get into such disrepair, thankfully insightful people restore them , with blood, sweat and money, 🛠🦺♥️
It would be cool if they got the mill running again and sold the stone ground flour in a little shop. It would sell at a premium.
I want to buy this Mill.
They most likely don't want to sell. And i can't afford it. But by God I so want to live there :-)
Wow. The windows looks terrific. I wonder if that old stove will work.
....I hope, they always stay safe + healthy, that they can do this energ. Work in this antique buildings .
Wheres part 2!!
Love to see it completed!!❤❤
YES!!!!
I'm from Rothbury, it really does looks beautiful
Best wishes to these people battling the weather unforeseen circumstances and the planning commission .
Could we see the end result of the water mill
Absolutely fabulous restoration!
I'd like to know what was done with the other building or the plans for it.
Simple thank you 😊 🙏
George! its been seven years. Have you been back to see the progress
This is amazing 😉
This is my favorite episode of The Restoration Man. There's a revisit episode on Tubi, I believe
Hello George, what beautiful accent you have.
Wonderful restoration, I was concerned about the scaffolding when they had the weight of the men AND the chimney on it though!
Cannot seem to view update and would loved to have seen water wheel in place and George comments on the final finished work, well done folks, fabulous job all round!
Someone ABOVE commented that they searched and found proof of waterwheel in place, (using "whitewater and tourist videos" search)
With my own restoration project dragging on due to time and money restraints, I am always refreshed and inspired by people like Dave and Margaret, and, of course, George.

Awesome place, love it
You can bath, washing clothes, fishing too....😁
those double glazed windows works well. I recently slept in a mill house... & it was always noisy which i guess u get used to
Your last sentence is echoed by your followers. "I can't wait to come back." I can't either!
If you type in THRUM MILL in google there's another 15mins where they put the mill wheel in
@@dtulip1 thanks
The water wheel is on!! > www.bing.com/videos/search?q=%27Thrum+mill&docid=608004319626920495&mid=F040745F48E1E81DBF2BF040745F48E1E81DBF2B&view=detail&FORM=VIRE
I just watched the last episode, I think it's the last. th-cam.com/video/ggK7BD5sOvs/w-d-xo.html
"I think it's the last." For those who have watched this entire episode, you can start at 35 minutes in.
We need a similar system in the UK like the buying/selling brothers in the USA.. George can you advise of any
When was this originally published? When did this couple purchase this amazing property?
I admire them beyond the moon and back. Add to my bucket list that I would love to see it one day. 🙂
they aquired the mill in 2009 and the show aired 2014 =)
@@IgorDellaPietra thanks so much 😀 👍

@@cogidubnus1953 Amazing, if it was not for the UK we could not have seen the initial programme......
@@derekstocker6661 I suppose they've blocked the concluding part of it in the UK so they can earn further money off it either on repeat fees, satellite channels or DVD sales
@@cogidubnus1953 Sounds about right, damned shame especially if they are going to do this to other episodes!
Hello have you done a new video of the finished mill yet ? I’m watching you from Lasvegas 9/14/20 love your videos George god bless kate 😎
look above at rita healy answers

I have never seen a car that is smaller than a human 😆😆 4:16
Is their a second visit to tis one ? when its finished.
Comments above posts a like to the update.
Do we see the mill wheel finished?
👏👏👏👍👍👍🇬🇷
picturesque location
It would be interesting if the people that ran that mill a long time ago where always saying that the wheel sucks and it needs a design change.
I'm wondering if the interior that large house at Cragside was used in the movie "The Lion,Witch,and the Wardrobe"...
Or maybe in the Spice Girls movie?
Did they ever finish it?
hydro. yes thank you
For everyone wondering about what it looks like now, Margaret has videos on TH-cam just type in her name and thrum mill
Cool!
Is the "Dream home abroad" series from Channel five somewhere available?
It was my favorite one.
I’ve been looking for it as well. In particular, the one of the single mom with 6 kids in Spain!
Subtítulos por favor... Gracias...
Are the homeowners of the water mill worry about flooding when the river water rises?
Live there everything wet. Some mold but wet all the time and sometimes wet and cold.
WOW-- Beautiful foliage and landscape! This is a greenery dreamland! Wonderful restoration! SEXY BEAST! HAHAHA!
update please.... I want to see the watermill in operation.
Where can I see the wheel in full operation
Of all the mill restoration videos I have seen, none EVER shows the completed wheel. How frustrating.
th-cam.com/video/cJi0LciOMhg/w-d-xo.html. The first 10-12 minutes provides a summary of the restoration and final outcome.
I love watching these restorations...a walk back in time. But I can’t help wonder about mice and rats...
What is the music from this show? Sounds like John Barry bond music?
how come the host isn't an old man by now?
I swear every time he goes to a restoration its like a whole year passes, and yet he looks as young as ever.
Maybe he's a vampire?
Because he films more than 1 restoration every year
@@HuwRichards no way, that's absurd
He is doing what he loves, and that will do it!
@3:40 here comes Mr. Negative
I don’t understand why these beautiful places in ruins are not given to the ones who have revenue to restore to its glory , instead of being allowed to collapse
