- Archibald Sinclair, 1st viscount of Thurso sat with his friend Winston Churchill night after night planning strategies for war deep on desolate moors of the Scottish highlands, however this grand lodge now lays abandoned but still holds secrets and history unseen for years! Names like Churchill , Lloyd George and Coco Chanel all visited this wonderful highland house before it was left forever

So I don’t have to answer the same question 3000 times… Andy is not in this video as he sadly died in a pigeon / Anus related incident! However as he is the messiah he will be back in a few weeks 😂
😂😂😂😂
so sorry to hear that.........I hope the pigeon recovers.....
Lol!
I have to admit, your ability for jokes is outstanding HAHAHAHAHAH
LMAO
This is the most epic explore and place I’ve ever done … nowhere in the uk has more history , just unreal , looking forward to seeing it again mate , very well done on this one , it ain’t easy 💙
Please give this channel a follow ❤️❤️
@@FINDERSBEEPERSlegend mate thanks ❤️
Can’t wait for this! It’s the highlight of my husbands and my weekend! You guys have no idea how much we love you. We are only 58 years old and my husband has terminal kidney failure. Each Sunday is a gift and you two are our angels!! You’ve given him more joy than I could ever have expected!! He wears his beepers t on Sundays and drinks from his beeper bears mug every day!! Thank you guys for bringing my Kevin and I so much joy!! Love you guys!!❤
I'm so sorry that your husband is not doing well. Matt and Andy are wonderful....so happy you and your husband can share their videos together! My husband and I love watching these videos too! Prayers for both you and your beloved husband 🙏❤.
@@donnasantiago5016 thank you so much! Hugs
So interesting but also so sad those wonderful things were left. Such a shame . Thank you for sharing
So sorry to hear about your husband kevin but I truly hope he laughs so much watching these two😂😂😂 cos I know I do I'm 50 just turned an i love how some of the place they go the stuff still in there brings me so much of my childhood memories back but they are a cracking pair i will say that sending you both big hugs tracy ❤❤❤xxxx
Thank you Nicky! Hugs back!
It's such a shame people let great things go to waste in any country. It really makes me sad. Such wonderful things as usual. Thank you 💕
That was a truly amazing explore, Matthew. What an absolute shame that place has been left to decay so badly. All those mementoes, furniture, uniforms and documents slowly decaying seems an insult to a man who served this country. I did some research and thankfully a lot of the 1st Viscount's papers were given to the Churchill archives. The burnt documents were probably the result of a fire in the laundry above which the documents were stored. Many of them were destroyed by the fire and water from the firemen's hoses. But it's heartbreaking to see so much remaining in the castle being left to rot. Thank you for bringing us along with you to witness it all. 🙏🏼🙏🏼👍👍
Absolutely loving this explore,which’s jam packed full with rooms upon rooms of British history. Kinda wish Andy had joined you..I mean,look at all those Military hats that he could’ve tried on..❤❤❤
The medal ribbons on the jacket are WW1 from left to right 1914 star the rosette denotes the recipient served under fire of the enemy between 5th August to 22nd November 1914. The British War medal and Victory medal the final ribbon looks like the OBE but I can't be sure Sinclair was Churchill's second in command from the beginning of 1916 when Churchill took command of the 6th Battalion Royal Scots Fusiliers
Amazing. It makes me sad that so many historical items will be lost. It's a shame that someone cannot take it to a museum or such. Great video!!
Legend for the shout out mate 💙
I’ll put your link in the description in a min thanks for the help
what an amazing place,so sad for all that history to be lost
Great find Matt, I love watching you and Andy, sorry Andy is not with you miss him greatly.
This is a very interesting find, and thank you!!
You 2 help me every week, been watching for a few year years, and you 2 are so much appreciated.
Can't wait until next Sunday, I get your notification at 4 in the morning here. That is the time I go to bed lol love to the both of you and much Thank yous. Could it be with the big head helmet, that someone could of been working for the royals guard? Just a thought
Brilliant video. Did you miss the connection.....there were a couple of old large paintings/photos which showed a splendid older man in a dress tunic with fringed epaulettes - very possibly the red dress tunic you found. And YES, there is stuff of military (and possibly national) importance that should be preserved. The word you couldn't work out was "Conservatives" in the telegram about Lloyd George (who didn't know my father 😉). That alone is an important piece of political history. Is there any organisation you could contact to help get a specialist to at least see if anything is worth preserving. The Gentleman's grooming case (with the bottles) is worth a bit - as we're the smaller ladies ones. There's so much good stuff in there that doesn't need to end up in the wrong hands or be stolen by robbers. Andy would've looked so good in those hats too - there was even the green plain one to make him look exactly like Baldrick. ☺️
I felt nervous for you there Matt especially because you were alone, glad you got out OK. What a great explore even though you were under pressure you still managed to see loads of amazing stuff! Really, really enjoyed it, thanks so much ❤
Well done Matt on your endeavours. Missed Andy but wax still an interesting explore with Bear. All that stuff should be in a museum not left to rot away, such a shame. Enjoyed that thank you xx
I loved this explore! Especially the pigeon
Incredible old house! In this day with people crammed together it's so hard to imagine living out so far away from anything let alone getting materials to build a place so far out. Great explore & and it was a nice hike with beautiful scenery. take care. 👍😊❤️
Fantastic video Matt, fascinating house with some great finds, bear getting excited over the pigeon, Andy you were missed 🥰🥰
*_"Bear! Get out of the chimney!"_* 😄
I agree with you Matt, it’s such a shame all that stuff is going to rack and ruin. Surely someone must be able to save that They must have some relations who could go in and save all that
Hi, the item at 8:07 is a knife box as in carving knives. I think sometimes there would be various items of cutlery stored in there. This could be such a beautiful home, such a shame. All of those important documents- incredible! Just think of the history that’s just laying there 😮
I think I saw a post on Facebook of these uniforms, I can’t remember if it was a military or genealogy site, was it you? It was from someone who said that they made a career out of exploring? Like you say all of these things need saving, if not for the family but these are things of National interest.
My heart is in my throat when Bear chased after that pigeon 🙈when I hear Bear rummaging around, I’m so worried about his paws 🫣☺️there’s always so much broken glass. The gentleman’s grooming set at 38:13 - the word Clarry , could that stand for Clarridges I wonder 🤔
Sinclair has one hell of a biography, including being a liberal minister, in 1930 was a chief whip , worked on the land registry and “tartan book” which addressed Scottish devolution, later becoming Secretary of State and at one stage was a contender to become Prime minister!
Surely the powers at be could force this property to be made a heritage site!
Judging by your voice you feel the same- once it’s gone it’s gone !!!! 😡😡😡😡😡🤬🤬🤬 my blood is boiling.
Looking forward to your next explore stay safe
Yes that was me! I’m trying my best to get these things saved! I definitely feel the same as you
What a phenomenal place but so sad to see so much history going to waste and being ruined by decay and bird shit!
Thanks for going here and sharing this location with us Matt, I really enjoyed watching!!
That was SO interesting! Those old Uniforms were amazing! Did Bear grow up with a Cat? I truly don't think he knows he's a Dog ( the way he crawls UP things, & hunts birds, etc)! But, he's a good Boy listening to you when you give commands! 😊Great Video, very glad you both survived!
Great explore Matt i really liked all the paraphernalia to do with the military and the wicker high chair was cool.Mr Sinclair was a handsome man for sure.Stay safe Matt and thank you for this incredible explore. 😊 xx
Using a site called Biblio as reference, I believe the Tailor of Gloucester you found on the side was the 1971 hardcover edition.
You are right. What a shame so many items in that house are left to rot and not in a museum, especially those military hats and uniforms. That was a mystery of who tried to burn those historical documents. Was it the family or was it someone who broke into that place? Guess we will never know. Really enjoyed this explore. Thanks, Matt.
8:24 the box is a silver wear box. The uniform jackets the brown one is army officer tunic last time it was worn was a funereal with that black arm band. The other i commented on FB i said it might be a highlands guard tunic but it might be a formal dinner suite it has a Napoleonic look about it witch i would say was formal wear. The caps are ww2 the red and white check is Scots, im also sure it was the same for the RAF boy entrance. Second Tunic defo Scots guard dinner tunic. Great video how you got in and out without been cough is mental lol
great explore.. what an amazing place! I agree in that those wartime artifacts uniforms letters and pictures need to be saved. Should contact a museum or something as its a damn shame to leave them like that
Awesome. Great history. Super cool items 🤙
Great find. Thank you
Great explore, beautiful rooms!!
👍 What a great find. I could spend days looking around there. You hit the jackpot on this explore.
The silhouette decoration is called a cameo.
I'm going to ask another question, Matt, I bet a lot of us have asked...why didn't you drive, that's a hell of a walk! Yikes, if that bath is lead, I wouldn't be touching it! And they were bathing in it? You are right, it's pretty bad that all this lovely historical stuff especially the uniforms, are not in a museum. Surely some authority can remove it and keep it safe for any living relatives. Thanks, Matt, that was an amazing explore! x
The end of the road is blocked off or I would lol!
Well another wonderful video so happy you didn't get caught.😮
I would just love to get in and save everything, it would be great in a museum, that box with all the wee bottles in it is a vanity case to put your toiletries into I think.
Another excellent explore!! Though I do mourn the loss of our dear Andy.....Yet we shall faithfully (and impatiently) await his day of resurrection!!!
Full of history and countless memories were made in and around this place. It looked like some of the photos were at Thurso Castle and or Henderson House in Wick. Bear wondering about was making me nervous on the dodgy flooring! The many generations of the Sinclair family are well known locally and one of them rubs shoulders with King Charles!
So sad😢 You're right all the history is lost, and the uniforms should be in a museum. Great explore Matt.❤
All those hats and no Andy 😂!! Loved this explore, Matt. I could feel your anxiety during this! Surely that's a classic case of historical vandalism, if such a thing exists. If not, there bloody well should be such a thing. Awesome trinkets. Great work!! ⭐️❤️🇦🇺
I noticed one of the headstones said "Marigold" and the letter next to the Telegram"Lloyd George, P.M." was written to "Darling Marigold".
Great explore Matt, just packed with all sorts of history! Love all your videos....miss u Andy!❤. Bear was cute as always!
One of the best explores iv seen in a long time. Really good explore 👌
Really loved this explore. It looks so desolate and creepy. It must have been a fine house in It's day.
Excellent lil place. It’s great when you do these type of places as there’s so much history. Keep up the good work xx ❤
Fabulous 1st class explore , this is appauling to think that our history is litterally being shit on. These piece's should be in a museam being looked after and only touched with kid gloves . I only hope that before it's too late to save these beautifull things someone really important is watching your channel and is in a position to do something about them.
Thankyou matt for this first class explore and not to mention putting yourself and bear in a dangerous position to show us this wonderfull place.
Just think how active this place was back in the day.
Thing on the desk with the angled top and the funny shaped holes next to the stuffed eagle was for (the best) cutlery (silverware) i think.
Always filled with excitement when you put up a new show. I watched the live show, and you did a wonderful episode . Nothing boring 😴. I loved seeing your younger pictures. How
handsome. You're still a lovely man. Thanks for all you and Andy do. 🍩
Absolutely fantastic video. Thank you so much for showing us inside that magnificent place. You have been incredibly brave risking going in there with the farm so close to it!
What a place and what amazing things! All the white woodwork surprised me, usually expect to see lots of brown. I’m imagining it all cleaned up, wow! Great explore!
Oh my gosh I love that old clock! What a piece of history, sad it's left there to rot with all the other beautiful things.
You were very fortunate to see this m we walked the 5 mile there to see on room and we got caught , it’s a long walk back empty handed , was absolutely gutted
It’s all about timing lol … but yea very lucky
UP THE CALEY JAGS!! 💙❤️💙❤️
This place was amazing, think it's one of my favorites with all the history just left in there, definitely should be in a museum! Great video!
My mum was born in Thurso and her maiden name is Sinclair 👍🏻
Absolutely Beautiful and amazing place. Thank you and Bear for the extremely cool explore Matt. Well Done!
Such incredible history, a huge part played out there, and nothing left but rotting papers and pigeon shit everywhere, how incredibly sad 😕
Fabulous place! So many interesting artifacts there! Great solo explore even with the difficulties, but… Andy would have tried on the hats! 😂 Great historical items. I loved all of the photos and the artworks. Hopefully the “pidgeony bastard” managed to make it out the window!
It’s so sickening to see files, photos and important paperwork go to ruin. It should all be among genealogical files or in libraries for historical purposes.
Thank you matt for taking such a risk to show us such a lot of history,it breaks my heart to see it all rotting away 😢.the drawer that has the little figures in they are called fairings you would win at a fair,i collect them and have one from my gran who died aged 91 ,its called" The power of love '
Well done mate!
Great video Matt, miss Andy though, he would have his bag of bits with him.
This was a fantastic place to explore but heart-breaking to see all that history decaying
Archibald Henry Macdonald Sinclair, 1st Viscount Thurso, KT, CMG, PC, known as Sir Archibald Sinclair between 1912 and 1952, and often as Archie Sinclair, was a British politician and leader of the Liberal Party.
What a fantastic house but I still can't believe these places are left to rot with so many valuable items. Poor Pigeony Bastard in that room smashing his stupid little head on that window!! 😂. Great video though. ❤
Absolutely brilliant video Matt, Andy will be kicking his self for missing this one. Hope you helped the trapped pigeon get out the room. 😢
Matt I must say this has to be one of the very best explores maybe because it’s something I love in life Antiques.
Thanks for this, beautiful old house.
What an amazing historic place. I hope it gets saved.
Absolutely fantastic video!! The Winston Churchill factor really ramps up the wow factor! Thanks Matt!!
The mug is called a Sunderland lustre
The box you thought was for letters is for cutlery xx😂
Love the video Mat, it's just very sad. This family's cherished Memories Being forgotten As the generations of families that lived in this house, R forgotten 2.😮
I love your video because i love watching bear and your very informative when looking at stuff x
Loved it Matt!! Great find!!
your live was awesome, certainly did not get bored, just tired, so had to leave you, but got right back the next day, so really looking forward to this new one!
So sad seeing so many important things just left to be pooped on and ruined, those military items defo need to be saved, such a shame
Great explore Matt, sad to see history left to decay.
What an amazing place so full of history
Wonder what’s going to happen to it ?
The wooden box with all the little holes in it is a Victorian Knife Box
Great Explore 👍🏻
It was a fantastic video thoughly enjoyed bear was a pain a times especially with that pidgeon keep um coming 😃😃😃
Loved this ❤❤❤
awesome place this and some beautiful pieces great find
So sad. All that history & that house goin' to waste.
Oh my goodness, Matt this is fantastic! Great job by you and Bear. I love this episode. I wish I could leave Texas sometimes.
Maybe you and Andy can go back later on and do a more indept search and look around. Because there is a lot of history. But well done on the explore and keeping Bear from eating strange things🤣
If it wasn’t a 16 hour drive we might
Very interesting place
Awesome place! Stay safe. ❤ from South Carolina 🇺🇸
The lighting was good! The naturally lit rooms were really really pretty! Placing the stuffed bird by the poo drippings made me giggle.
I enjoy your shows me and my little stuff dog called bear. We be watching.
Its heart breaking seeing it all rot away fantastic explore tho xx
There’s William Morris wallpaper!!!! I swear I just watch your show for the wallpaper designs.
Amazing exploring as always that uniform hanging up was the same one in the picture of the admiral
That was brilliant x
Such a shame to see a wonderful place and things go to ruining.
Great explore. Stay safe ❤️
A walk back in time ❤
Loved this how amazing xx
Hey Beeper Family....does anyone know the video where Andy falls through the floorboards and his backpack saves him from falling all the way through?? If anyone knows please reply to me here. Thanks!😊
Such a shame. There must be some family left to rescue the photos and papers at least 😢❤
If you ever get caught, just say you've lost the dog 😅 train bear to run round playing hide and seek
Could have found a screwdriver and took another door handle out to get in the other room yups
Criminal damage… not worth it
Just came across your channel,and really enjoyed it..
