They definitely add to the whole experience, not least because it's always unnerving to walk on glass but you can not get to the chapel which you couldn’t before. I wouldn't like the job of cleaning them though.
Another good video and Oystermouth is a favourite of mine. First time I went around it there wasn't any walkways to the chapel. Little clarity on the name 'The Mumbles'.... It's a name for the area not the village itself. The village (and yes it still is a village officially) is Oystermouth. The name Mumbles comes from the French/Norman name for breasts and refers to the two mounded islands on which the lighthouse can be found on one off mumbles head. The local council for the are and others were looking into making Oystermouth a town, but the locals were against it as they like to keep their village status. Not really an issue though when Wales' largest village Skewen has a population near 10,000 more than double that of Oystermouth.
I couldn't comment on patreon.. This is lovely.. Is there any indication about facilities here? Looks like there's a lot to see so would spend some time, so assume they have loos...? With entry fee too...? Don't fancy the garderobe. 😆
Thank you. Glad you enjoyed it. There are loos just outside the castle, which is probably a good thing because it doesn't rob the castle of any space. It's only £4 to enter and if you are in the mood it is only a stones throw from the Lovespoon Gallery and the seafront.
@@MostlyCastles it is one of those things that does limit where I can visit... terrible anxiety! So many lovely places in the middle of nowhere that I know I'll never get to. Thats another reason these videos are brilliant!
Thank you so much. That's lovely to hear. It's perfectly understandable. We use an app called Flush which tells you where the nearest loos are. It has come in very handy. There's an app for everything.
Your lady wife was standing by the whipping post pillar at the castle and legend says a lady who resided at castle was whipped to death on that pillar,and her weeping screaming ghost can be seen😮and she turns to show you her scared bleeding back😮
@@thedok7333 I hadn't seen it, but I found it in the end. Have you been around it? There's surprisingly more to it than you would think looking from the air. They seemed to have fit a lot into a small space.
Late and catching up on vids, this was a fun one. Super enjoying the new soundtrack - nice one Ian!
Glad you enjoyed it. I'm sure this music has been knocking around for a while. I call it "Jazzy Thing" for when I am in a Jazzy mood. 😀
I love castles..and your history lessons. Thanks for sharing..
Glad you like them! Welcome aboard. 😀
Love the cutaways with voice-over. Y'all gettin professional and shiz!
We look pro and shiz? I can assure you it's an accident :D
Another good informative and interesting video. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it 😀
wonderful video.
Thank you so very much for taking the time to say that 😊
Also...love those glass walkways. Do you think they add to the experience?

Thank you. Well that explains the name. Trust the french to name the area after a body part. You'd never catch us doing anything like that. 🤥
I'm sorry, could you say the name of the area again? I didn't catch that.
@@JKsWatchables I'm sorry, we must have mumbled it :D

@@MostlyCastles omg that may be the singular most useful thing a human has ever told me! I love you!!!
I can't remember who told us about it but we had the same reaction. We have a similar app for carparks. And we love you too. 🥰
