I have recently learned that some of my ancestors came from East Meon as far back as the 15th century. I now find it difficult to travel as far as England (live in Canada), so really appreciated a look at the village. It is just perfect, and has such an interesting history. Thank you so much for making it possible for me to visit.
The country side is breathtakingly beautiful. I get lost for days when I visit England. Love all the history. Thanks for sharing this gorgeous little town.✨
I can’t wait to visit again… waiting for this virus to , hopefully, get under control soon. I wish you had a tour company so you could take people around to these places. You commentary is fabulous!!
I'm English and I've lived in Italy for 56 years,so lovely to see these quanto villages and the lovely thatched cottages.My great grand parents had a thatched cottage outside Aylesbury, it's still there but not thatched any more.Thank you for bringing back lots of memories,and the nice clear voce telling us all the history etc Take care good traveling ,love from Italy
Hell Ann, greetings from England to Italy! So glad you liked the video tour, there are lots more cottages and country homes for you to see on the channel, and we will be filming more soon too! All the best.
What a stunning beauty this village owns... I'm glad that u choose place of fine history, elegance & information so adorable that one wouldn't stop charming it..👍👍
I have seen thatched roofs all over the world and that one is definitely the prettiest one with the most professional handiwork of them all.! Well done, to whoever did it.
I cannot wait until our International flights open up again (Oz). This is a must see for me and it will go on the "to do list". Totally idyllic and somewhere I would gladly see my days out. I mentally visualised living in one of those cottages..............doesn't hurt to day dream, it costs nothing.
@@MemorySeekers 2019 came and went and the thought was.........OK 2020.....well no travel.....ever the optimist I am looking towards 2021 with a very positive feeling and am currently planning my next UK visit....if that doesn't happen....have you ever seen a grown women cry (hehehe)
You have a Beautiful Crispy Voice. No one has Narrated crisp Clear. Carry on the good work. Well Appreciated. The Buildings of Yesteryears are Beautiful compare to today’s buildings.
Nice village video you did. Very historical and beautiful sights to see. Have you ever tried dovercourt england. I've been there. It's a nice village to visit, and sudeley castle. Greetings from Canada 😃
You must go back to visit inside the church to see its Saxon black marble Tournai font, one of only seven in England. The church is also home to a fabulous tapestry of the village created by the villagers. The Meon valley is a beautiful part of the country.
Wow what a church, just looked it up. So true mini Notre Dame! Amazing stained glass. That is now on the list, shame was in Winchester filming for Jane Austen a couple of weeks back and could have popped in then. Still not that far away for another time.
Hi Alisa, we visited a month or so ago now when we filmed our Jane Austen series. The cathedral is wonderful, sadly the crypt was off limits due to Covid 🙄 We were at Westminster Abbey last weekend (where you cannot film at all) but I have to say Winchester seemed more impressive! Video on Winchester which was superb coming in a few weeks or so!
@@MemorySeekers Oh, I didn’t think about the impact of COVID. I agree, Winchester is one of the prettiest cathedrals in England, and I think fewer American tourists get there. We were heading from Heathrow to Salisbury with a taxi driver/guide, who took us through Chawton and Winchester on the way to our B&B in Salisbury. We’ve visited Salisbury, Wells, Winchester, Ripon, York, Durham, and others. All so fascinating!
Hello! I’m Japanese . l watch your beautiful video in Japan. こんにちは！ 私は日本人。日本で貴方達の美しいビデオを見ています。 私はイギリスの歴史や景色がとても好き❤️ 特にMary of Scotland が一番好きな女王なので💐いつかScotlandに行ってみた〜い🛫❣️ これからもビデオ、楽しみにしています。 Thank you very much💐💐💐
Your channel is unique because it gives a very detailed tour guide to specific locations in England. Great narration and camera work! I often watch your videos while eating my breakfast. It's so relaxing and inspires me for the day. -Much love from the Philippines
What a valuable asset you are to the TH-cam channel 👏 👏 Please keep sending us many more videos like this one🙏 May we continue to build old historical buildings.
Very nice area, it sounds French. I just love the idea of foot paths. I’m not sure how they were brought about but I think it’s a great idea. I love the old buildings in these villages. Thank you
Es la primera ves que los veo y me gustaron mucho sus videos. Y es el primer canal que veo que tiene varios idiomas en traducción. 👍 Saludos desde Tamaulipas, México 🇲🇽 y Brownsville, Texas 🇺🇲
Hola gracias por el mensaje. Me alegro de que te hayan gustado los videos y las traducciones. Google no es tan bueno traduciendo, pero espero que hayas podido entender la mayor parte. Espero que se una a nosotros para ver más videos.
Gorgious country villages also love the iconic red phone booths. Love your videos Simon/Will from an American fan. Always loved history, literature, classic music.
I live a few miles from East Meon. We like to dine at the George. When Cromwell's troops went through East Meon on their way to Cheriton, they stripped the lead from the roof of the church to make musket balls.
There is an ocean front tudor-revival home in La Jolla, CA down by Windansea that somehow was given a waiver from the city building code bureaucrats to allow part of the roof to be thatched. Hopefully it did its job during our many rainstorms this Spring. It's on Camino de la Costa just south of Palomar Street. They did a great job with it and the home is lovely.
My Grandmother lived there. Her maiden name was Christmas. She and two of her sisters married my Grandfather and his two brothers after WWI. (My last name is Barratt.) I'm trying to save money to visit there soon.
I have been to England in 2010 I live in London part 2 years but I make a very big mistake I do not have time to go outside to visit the countryside then I'll get back to Pakistan because of the accident now I am starting to get to England again and start living in the countryside I spend my time watch in TH-cam channel to see the British countryside
Oh yes, hoping to do a ride on the Watercress Line soon. They run a evening service called the Rat Train. It's an ale drinking training. So you get slowly sloshed as you ride along. It was cancelled due to Covid but hope to do it soon and bring to the channel!
East Meon south Downs Hampshire of Ingland is the great village famous beautiful with simple building old time little river becouse blood and born samething tragedition history time

Why Italy?
My daughter and her family live in East Meon. I have been there many times from SA. The summers in England are fabulous.
Super village, what a surprise we had when we visited not knowing it existed before we happened to find it. Little Gem indeed.
Wow nice upload friend
I LOVE the decorative designs on the thatched roofs. That's a craft that's not seen much. I hope it doesn't die out.
There are view few companies able to do the craft now, as you say let's hope it does not die out.
What a lovely tiny village. I truly enjoy your videos and the history as well. Thanks for sharing!
So nice of you thank you 😊
as always lovely content from Simon and his team
Thank you!
That’s Tranquility on a plate . Absolutely beautiful . Thank you for the upload .

Yet another of your most excellent videos. Thank you. Please keep them coming.
Thanks, will do!
I have seen thatched roofs all over the world and that one is definitely the prettiest one with the most professional handiwork of them all.! Well done, to whoever did it.
This thatched-roof private house is wonderful.
I think it is a World Heritage Site that I want to keep forever.
East Meon village, this must go.
It is a charming place but not a world heritage site, just a simple beautiful village in Hampshire.
Lovely village, my great grandparents William Millard & Sarah Heberden were born here in the 1860s.
How fantastic, great you can see what it might have been like to some degree.
Beautiful, picturesque village. The kind of place I would like to go to for a much needed vacation! Good video. Good job!
Thank you, I am sure you could have a nice vacation in and around this village. Lots to see and do in Hampshire!
Delightful just delightful video again! Thank you so much for this most interesting video!

...and if you're in the area again, go to St Mary's church in Itchen Stoke, no longer used for services but spectacular, like a mini Notre Dame!
Well I never knew that! Thank you very interesting, was a shame we could not go inside on the day, but equally sad someone was being buried.
Wow what a church, just looked it up. So true mini Notre Dame! Amazing stained glass. That is now on the list, shame was in Winchester filming for Jane Austen a couple of weeks back and could have popped in then. Still not that far away for another time.
Great video, that's for sharing! Learned a lot! 👍
Good to hear.

Oh really, thanks for that info, very interesting. Lovely part of the world.
Cottages are of next level
My family come from East Meon going back many generations. I visited here often with my Grandfather as a boy. We all fished for trout from the river.
Nice video.. thank for sharing

@@MemorySeekers why this village is empty
Have become big fan-follwer of all your Vlogs especially the Beautiful Villages and Towns of England
Thank you for watching!
My Grandmother lived there. Her maiden name was Christmas. She and two of her sisters married my Grandfather and his two brothers after WWI. (My last name is Barratt.) I'm trying to save money to visit there soon.
How wonderful we could show you around before you manage to visit. Hope you make it.
Respected sir Nice video👌👌👌
Thank u!
I love the old phone booth
See quite a lot of them in Hampshire.
Proud English lass and wouldn't change it for the world, even if it has changed loads since the 20th century
Good job
Thank you!
Love ❤️❤️❤️❤️ the village 🌳🍂🏡
LOVE It 😍!
Thank you!!
Thank you
15 mins away from where I live
Fabulous!
Vey enjoable place
Super
I wish it could be possible see inside of those cottage.. I have no ideia how is it inside..

Yes it would be nice to have a look but sadly they are peoples homes so not possible here. Greetings from London
Like out of a story book 📚
Magical

@@MemorySeekers thank you very much for your reply me you are very kind hurts when I get back I will shak my hand with you
And don't forget nearby is the Watercress Line running from Alton to Alesford (?)
Oh yes, hoping to do a ride on the Watercress Line soon. They run a evening service called the Rat Train. It's an ale drinking training. So you get slowly sloshed as you ride along. It was cancelled due to Covid but hope to do it soon and bring to the channel!
😍😍😍
Beautiful cottages 😍....
I am not comfortable with English accent i think it has more stresses! 😐 But English accent is amazing!
Glad you liked the cottages.
The funeral service was one of the few signs of life going on there.
😆
Que vontade de entrar em um desses cottages 🥰
Sim, seria bom ver o interior, infelizmente são casas particulares.
East Meon south Downs Hampshire of Ingland is the great village famous beautiful with simple building old time little river becouse blood and born samething tragedition history time
Mine too
字幕の変わるのが早い。字幕を読んでる読んでる内に画面が変わってしまう。もっと工夫してほしい。せっかくのイギリスの風景が詳しく見れない。日本語がおかしい。
Hello, can you kindly tell me what street is the "Kews Cottage'" shown on @2:04?
Hello, am sorry, had a look but cannot work out where it is in the village, been a while since we were there.
@@MemorySeekers It's alright. Thanks all the same. :)
@@MemorySeekers I found it. It's on Workhouse Lane. It's called Pauper's Cottage.
East Meon south Downs Hampshire in England country the pleace most famaus in world. .the view house style grade high but cute cool
I would not say it is would famous but it is worth a visit to see all the cute houses as you say. ☺
Красивая деревенька для прогулок,жаль,что ее затапливает водой(
❤✋🇮🇶
👍
If you show the inside of the houses
This is a village of private houses so we cannot go inside.
These are private homes, it's not a theme park.
They won't want any riff raff around there.
Good for THEM !
No people? 😢
It was early in the morning and it is a sleep place.
The problem with villages is that everyone knows your private business, apart from being impossibly expensive and snooty! Ugh !
