Hallsands, the lost village.

- Hallsands is a village and beach in south Devon, England, in a precarious position between cliffs and the sea, between Beesands to the north and Start Point to the south.
The early history of Hallsands is unknown, but a chapel has existed there since at least 1506. The village was at a cave known as Poke Hole, and probably was not inhabited before 1600.[1] The village grew in size during the 18th and 19th centuries, and by 1891 it had 37 houses, a spring, a public house called the London Inn, and a population of 159. Most residents of Hallsands at that time depended on fishing for a living, particularly crab fishing on the nearby Skerries Bank.
On 26 January 1917, a combination of easterly gales and exceptionally high tides breached Hallsands' defences, and by the end of that year only one house remained habitable. The villagers' fight for compensation took seven years.

Fond memories of family holidays in Hallsands as a boy in the early to mid '70's. Clearly remember the path (now not accessible from watching the video) down to the ruined village and playing among the ruins and rocks. In those days there were quite a few more ruins too and you could still work out the road through the old village, using a little imagination! I seem to remember a wall of The London Inn still standing, but I could be wrong about that. The hotel had/has photo's of the old village and residents and you could make out where you had just been walking from looking at the photo's. Was last there around 2002 and the path down to the ruins was closed, sadly. Can see why now! I've always wondered what would have happened to the village had the dredging not occurred. Sure it would now be lost to the sea anyway? Terrible how the villagers were treated back then.
I do recall walking along the front of those cottages in 1982, there was one elderly lady still living there . Most fascinating lady to talk to. Her cottage still standing , with blue doors.
This is a fantastic video...totally enjoyed it....will watch many more times too. Thank you...what a magical place and facinating history.
A stunning section of coastline, well worth exploring. Many happy memories walking along there.
A fantastic video and shocking to see how much more has gone in just over a decade. The big slab by the house you said could collapse has done so.
When you see the old photos the beach came around from North Hallsands (not Beesands as labled) in one continous curve in front of the Village of Hallsands.
For a 2011 Drone it is so much better than the junk i bought recent years from Ideal world and Temu. Far better picture quality range and duration. Thanks for uploading.
This is awesome, really enjoyed watching it! One small correction, what you called 'Beesands beach' is actually North Hallsands beach. Thanks so much for taking the time to film and for uploading!
Ziggys Piggies, thanks for that, and yes I did get the beach name wrong, bee sands is further down the coast :) Glad you enjoyed the video, got some good footage for the trouble we had getting there with the sat nav that took us all through tiny back lanes ! Lol
Thanks for that!
Excellent drone video of the tragic loss of Hallsands Village between 1897 - 1917. Haunting footage of the end of village lost to the sea and man's greed by the removal of 600,000 tonnes of shingle from the sea which with sea storms washed away the vulnerable fishing village and its people.
Thanks for that, shame I couldn't get a bit closer to the lighthouse, but i pretty well covered the remains of the old village.
@@fredflintstone1024 Looks quite a walk along the coastal path to the lighthouse at Start Point, although it does have a lane down to it I believe? May check it out once we're out of lockdown.
Why has this not got more likes! We went to Kingsbridge once and started a conversation up euh this lovely elderly man and told us about how it had been washed away from the wrong doings; dredging, too much fishing ect... and I’ve always wondered what it looks like and just the opposite of what I imagined!!! 🦑🦑🦑
If you go to Amazon - Books and type in Hallsands up will come a few books about the history of the village and the Trout Sisters which I have on order.
Great British Entertainment Ltd Thank you so much!
Dont think the fishing had an impact on the washing away.
QWERTYUIOP Obviously you haven’t read about the background info of it. I suggest you read up on it first.
@@myas5176 How would fishing result in this
Brilliant photography ,sad to see .Thanks for posting.
Colin Wilkes thanks, the weather was just perfect, and very rewarding considering how long it took us to get there, through very narrow winding lanes.
interesting story, and sad loss. interesting to see things differ from various other posts, garden hoses and other debris having disappeared amongst the remaining homes, as well as the "shed" having fallen into the sea... great footage.
Glad you enjoyed it
Never heard of this place till i stumbled bout it on the trout hotel all very interested and the photos here give even more insite Rob
Saw the remains of the village in the 1964 film The System and it made me want to know more about it.
This is kinda like being in a game and trying to get to the unrendered parts of the map.
Wow all of the beach has gone, 30 feet down, those houses were more or less at beach level.
fantastic video!
Thanks :)
Thank you for the video. Interested in the story and your video just about gives the best overview of the village.
Nicely done!
Thanks!
Watch while listening to the song of same name by Kaprekars Constant. Have hankey at the ready! The song is superb and really tells the sad story very well!
Great video 👌🏼👌🏼 what is the song playing at 3:22?? Thanks
The beach shown in your footage is actually Hallsands beach not Beesands beach.
Thanks for that chris, i didn’t realise at the time i put the video together :)
Any before pictures? Never heard of this place before.

the hotel's gone.
Was this video made using a drone ?

You didn't explain why you think it was not nature but man's foolishness. Surely it is both.
The majority of the shingle / beach material was removed and used in the construction of the dry docks at Devonport, then the village had no natural defences against the power of the sea, which took its toll on the remaining village which was being under mined by the sea causing nearly all of it to be washed away as you can see in the video the caves being formed and the land falling into the sea.
What year did you film this?
Hi there Robert it was last summer of 2019 we visited Hallsands :)
