      Thank you Lyndon, it was a lovely visit and one both Yhana and I enjoyed exploring 😊 I can imagine it was a bit grisly in its prison heyday though. Catch up soon

    This is a beautiful castle, and a beautiful day to explore. Thanks for taking us along. The exhibit that lets you pick up the ancient weapons is really cool, getting to hold a piece of history.

    While Rye is a favourite stopping off place I have never been in the tower. There certainly looks more interest than I imagined. Hope you have had a great Christmas and are enjoying a wonderful start to 2023.

    Interesting to know it was also used as a prison and courthouse. It a beautiful castle. It always amazes me how they still stand after so many years! Very nice video! 👍😊🇨🇦

    What a great bit of history! So fascinating. It would take me all day to get through that place! I’d be reading every information plaque. I’d love to explore that castle. Thanks for sharing it with us. Hoping you and Yhana had a fantastic Christmas! 🎄 Have a great Day! 😃💯🙌🏼

    You two had a great day to visit - it sets the stones off well. I enjoyed hearing about the history and seeing a bit about how they lived back then - it's fascinating how places get repurposed over the centuries. Sometimes it makes me wonder if it's clever re-use or spite towards the previous owner.

    • @StephenandYhana
      @StephenandYhana  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I agree, these historical buildings could well get repurposed for both reasons, Especially if the property was lost financially, religiously or through conflict. The castle was an interesting little visit, it wasn’t a huge site by any means but a fascinating one 😉

    A Happy New Year, Stephen and Yhana.Wishing the new year brings you all happiness and prosperity. Wow, the ruins of Rye Castle and Ypres Tower, especially the stone walls, are well-preserved. oh, my, Woman's prison! 1:58 I see a heavy metal door. 4:31 Those cannons and cannonballs intimidate me a little. Have they been used to protect the castle against attacks? Thank you very much for taking us on the walking tour. I can almost feel the touch of those walls.
    Please accept my apologies. I lived off-grid for 50 days due to devoting all my time to my best friend from AU after her chemo recovery. Now I am anxious and look forward to catching up on your vids. Thank you for your patience.

    Hi Yhana and Stephen! This was a treat and a half if I may say so! I love the old castle, and the biggest treasure for me is all the swords, the old toold and equipments, and that lovely inner garden! I can imagine how they were utilizing it back in the time!

Interesting to hear that it once served as a prison! Incredible. The gardens are gorgeous. I definitely wouldn't of wanted to be locked up here, i bet some strange things went on.

      Hey buddy, thank you kindly for the message. I have an issue with my spine that flares up in winter time. Causes me huge problems, although I still go to work and fight through my day. But I needed to take a break from TH-cam and rest up a little. I was also away over Christmas in Poland, didn’t do any filming but spent time with my partners family.
      I will get back to TH-cam in the coming weeks though. Hope you had a lovely Christmas and the start of your New Year is well too 😊 Yhana and I send our best 😊
