I’ve really enjoyed watching this and the best part of how you have partly brought it to life again.Its a place I’ve long wanted to visit and once I’m able then I will be doing.When I was a child living in Bingley I have a vague recollection of walking around what MST have been a part of the house,it was a big tiled floor,maybe I’m wrong I was only very young at the time. Anyway it’s somewhere I intend visiting,and Thankyou for the wonderful video tour.
@@MybitofHistory I bought the book a while ago and it’s just fascinating.Ive also watched the videos those two guys do,they actually went down underground into one of the cellars.
Hi mate I just thought I'd drop you a line on here to say I do hope you decide to make more films again in 2019. I also wish you all the best happy New year. Regards Gareth
I'm not an historian - although I do find it fascinating to be able to look back and get some sense of what it was like back then. The local history of these areas is well worth getting to know and enjoy. :)
Loved it - I played up here as a kid. Further down the path, heading to Saltaire direction, on your right as you pass over the beck is a lower area that used to be an ornamental fishpond and boathouse. The earth dam with reinforced wall interior can be seen though has been breached. To the left, up an incline following a guided set of steps and then right down a path and there is an old reservoir that served the house (I think). Thank you for the video - it really was a pleasure to watch,
Absolutely blown away with this..the re-production was amazing, and in such detail, the guided walk around was very easy to follow, I knew exactly were I was throughout, which made it a joy to watch..Brilliant. :-)
Great video there,I live in Saltaire so have wondered round Milner Field a fair few times, at 25 seconds in Ian Morris who you were chatting with passed away earlier this year.
Hello from the U.S.! This is fascinating! I really enjoy "then and now" type photos, so it was great seeing how you reconstructed the mansion using CGI. Have you thought of doing a similar video for the Shipley Glen Pleasure Grounds? Best wishes.
Not sure there are that many photos of the old place to accurately recreate a CGI. I do a lot of research into those places I do recreate - this one about Milner Field took several field visits and a good amount of time searching for the floor-plans etc. Glad you enjoyed though ;)
@@HurlyBurlyStudios - I've just been going through my research notes - I did find some details from a publication 'Milner Field & Titus Salt from a group which went by the name 'Bingley Hub' I know I spent a fair bit of time putting together my own ground and floor plans from several different sources which included the National Archives and English Heritage. Just had a look on-line and I see the Alamy Stock Photos now have a series of plans and elevations of Milner Field for sale ;)
What a fantastic video - absolutely inspiring. I am continually drawn to the place and fascinated by it's history. Like you, I am not 'spooked' as such when I am there, but I never feel totally alone either. I tip my hat to you Sir, an extremely clever and well-produced video. Am on my way back round there with my camera now :-) AGAIN.
+Andy McAllister Pleased you enjoyed the video Andy. I had a great day filming up there - hardly seem like two years ago though :) Some of my Flicker uploads: www.flickr.com/photos/119570537@N06/page1
I have a "ghost" photo that I took here last summer. Either Titus Salt or Junior can be seen (they both looked alike somewhat) as well as a Victorian dressed woman standing in a Croquet playing stance can be clearly seen amongst others.
markojack15 It would be interesting to see the photo.... Whilst I was filming up there I also captured a few things which have had me thinking - but to be honest, I'm not a great believer in the Ghost Chaser arena :)
My bit of History Neither am I if Iam honest but the photo does get me and others who have seen it thinking. I would be interested in seeing anything you have as well. My email is montyw111@hotmail.co.uk..ps I love your video work mate.
What happened to the mansion? Why was it demolished, what a shame it was never preserved. As a child my mum would never let me ride my bike up there, said it was spookie.
I went to have a look as the result of watching this. Can you shed some light on a couple of things for me Mike? There is mound with gravestones on a rocky outcrop with a bit of greenery to the north side of Shipley railway station. Was this a burial mound, or part of an old Church. Also gallows Bridge on the canal. Was there a gallows in Shipley adjacent to this, or merely a name?
Good questions - Now I think the best person to give authoritative answers would be a chap called Richard Coomber.... Look him up on Facebook..... Hope that's of some assistance ;)
... I'm getting into these Mini Doc's, & Boning up on my Local History. Nice One.👍🙏😊
And 7 years later, I'm having to get to grips with new software and systems. Glad you're enjoying them ;)

Splendid recreation of a fascinating piece of history. Thank you.
Pleased you enjoyed it. ;)
We used to play up there as kids. Locally known as Conker Avenue. The gate house was derelict and thought to be haunted but we still played there.
I found your video and previous videos probably the most satisfying interesting programs I have seen in years my friend.
Thank you. Regards
I hope to start making some others nest year - Ill health has prevented these past couple of - pleased you enjoyed though ;)

@@garethmason9255 - Hi Gareth, I hope you and yours have a great New Years and a 2019 too ;)
What a brilliant video!
Brilliant... watching and will enjoy :) thank you. Hope you are well.
This is amazing I have never seen the mansion like this,it is awesome to know what it used to look like and I only live down the road from it

Hi Graham, glad you enjoyed the vid, and for adding more information about the area :)
The vid was awesome - it really was - it really allows you to orientate yourself with the place.
Absolutely blown away with this..the re-production was amazing, and in such detail, the guided walk around was very easy to follow, I knew exactly were I was throughout, which made it a joy to watch..Brilliant. :-)
It was fun to make Paul :) How's your spuds coming on?
Great video there,I live in Saltaire so have wondered round Milner Field a fair few times, at 25 seconds in Ian Morris who you were chatting with passed away earlier this year.
Sorry to hear about Ian... Spent many a cuppa and a chat with him, and he appears in one or two of the videos. Glad you liked the video ;)
Very well made video. Loved the cgi model of the house.

My bit of History I’ve seen some rough plans of Milner Field online. Are there detailed plans available to the public (perhaps with dimensions)?

Hi Linda - this page explains a lot about Milner Field : www.milnerfield.co.uk/

The graveyard was next to the old Bethel Baptist church which was demolished in the 1960s.
What's with the blue light??
You mean the ZR-0 Unit - Used by most 22nd Century Historians and Archaeologists to survey a site and reconstruct a 3D representation. ;)
Hi I found the light a excellent way of traverse from the present.. then to look at a view of the past.. clever and worked with an artistic edge.
