- In the first of the new abandoned Ireland series I take you on a full exploration of a forgotten, abandoned castle that was later a mansion and then home to an order of nuns. It now lies near a quiet river and forest, which hides its beautiful Gothic architecture and the stunning main tower.

I am an Urban Explorer or "urbexer", photographer and TH-cam creator with an academic background and passion for history, Cultural Anthropology and English with a focus on Celtic Studies. I grew up in a creepy looking 1800s home that later became the abandoned "haunted house" of the town. In 2016 I made the decision to start photographing and capturing on video these abandoned locations that I explored until then as a hobby. My recent focus has been on once great mansions, asylums and lost places. Currently I travel across the US, UK and Ireland to allow you to experience these places through me. I hope you enjoy the journey as we shine a light upon these forgotten places.

Even as a shell this place is incredibly beautiful. I wish I could have seen it in it's prime.
I only found a few B and W photos from its past, and I'd be curious to know what it looked like inside back then.
This video is beautifully done and no chatty talk or sea sick movements. I also like the well research done which is good historic information. Thank you for this awesome video. Must see more!
Thanks Jean! I really have been trying to fill a gap in the videos that are available. I appreciate the feedback and glad you enjoyed!
It must have been magnificent in it's day!............Thankyou for filming it and letting people like myself visit it!.................Tich.
Such respect to my little country. No screaming or nonsense. Thank you, C from the little haunted cottage in Ireland 💚💚💚🍀🍀🍀
Oh, hey!. Thank you. do you happen to watch LIFE AFTERLIFE TV PRODUCTIONS? I tune in to their videos sometimes and swear I saw you there in comments :). I really appreciate that. I have studied Ireland, Gaelic and Celtic Mythology far too long to ever take Eire lightly. I just returned from your island and the newest videos are from there (including this last one here: th-cam.com/video/1mPnF1Tt6Wk/w-d-xo.html). Very excited I have watchers on your side of the pond! Since studying in Galway I have been obsessed with uncovering the lost places there and their amazing stories.
I saw a man's face in a wall.
@@DesertifyUrbex there catacombs under parts 9f dublin still left undiscovered or blocked up from years ago too
@@aaaggg4339 That's neat. I knew of the mummies under a church, but not those. Very interesting. I do plan to return to explore further.
I am watching this video from my haunted home.
just love the area the trees the vines it seems so peaceful just amazing thanks for sharing new subscriber
Thank you. It really does always seem like you're away from everything. More on the way!
I am very excited to see so many of you are watching and enjoying this very special lost mansion. It is a place truly lost in time and one I think of often. If you enjoyed its story, and forgotten beauty, I invite you to check out my full playlist series of lost and abandoned mansions in Ireland right here: th-cam.com/play/PLD486ah3cexd-cx8gdvbUtcZ4IPNuhXYH.html
Stunning and poetic, you have brought this castle alive visually and with your haunting words. The wind is the only guest...I’m hooked! Luckily I happened upon your channel tonight and I cannot wait to check out more of your explores.
Awesome! I might not be the Bob Ross of urban exploring, but I have my moments. I find these old mansions to unavoidably pull you, both physically and mentally. It can almost be a feeling of being the "other", out of time and space. You end up chasing those fleeting moments. I'm very glad to share them and that you are enjoying the trip.
Desertify Urbex: Abandoned Places I could not agree more. I can almost feel the lives that were lived in those abandoned places. It’s like you say, I’m pulled to be a part of its past and I could not be happier.
@Sheila T. Oooh, I have to run with this lol
Wow man, you have an amazing surreal way of bringing us these great places! Really well done and impressive, I really enjoyed it.
I do my best to find some interesting ones. Glad you enjoyed this place. A bunch more in this series on the way!
Desertify Urbex: Abandoned Places Great can't wait,,,,,,total wow.
King Edward 1st built castles in Wales and Ireland to control uprisings... this Castle / mansion is probably a mixture of both ... but i don't know because most of the construction is brick now bricklaying didn't come into construction work until the 15th century... Hampton Court fine example prier to from 1066 al castles were built of quarry stone and inside the 12in walls would be a rubble filling lime and cow manure mortar ... now look at the inside walls all plastered modern by standards.of buildings in 18th= 19th centuries.. timber plinth above the windows and doors -- not a medieval building stone was used erected by master stone-masons also maybe a fire destroyed part of the lower living quarters hence the abandonment.... i wonder what order of the Nuns was called that occupied this property ?? Okay Desertify Ubex thanks you do one brilliant film well narrated great show buddy lookin for the future vids .... Edwin J Thompson ... Beverly Hills Ca......................Ed
You know your stuff! I have actually been to Harlech, Conwy, and Caernarfon castles. Truly massive and breathtaking views and constructions. I think you are right that this, like may Irish mansion started as a medieval tower and probably grew by brick additions in the 1700/1800s. From what I know the nuns were from the continent. I think France. The fire theory holds water as I did notice burn marks outside of just fireplaces. If you haven't already, I might peek at my playlist of abandoned Irish mansions, as there's some more stunners I explore there as well! th-cam.com/video/cdn2BR5x8Lw/w-d-xo.html
@@DesertifyUrbex Hi thanks for the link English history was one of my subjects at Uni... 1066... one in the eye for Harold said William......again the same happen here in the.USA:-} the Native American tribes just let the white Europeans take control ... instead of fighting amongst themselves if they had got together organised all the tribes across this great expanse of land the pioneers would have stood no chance as would have William the then Brits were to busy arguing amongst them selves {{ as they are doing right now over Europe
@@edwinthompson6510 So true. Harold Godwinson was also a very underrated leader.
Great Job!! Love that you took your time, felt as if I were there !
April Daniels Thank you. These places are to be enjoyed as the world briefly stops when you are there. I am glad you enjoyed the trip.
Nice video! Good job! Thank you very much.
You're welcome! Thank you for the support.
Beautiful narration such and awesome find ! Thank you ! I love the way nature is taking it back !
Thanks Linda! This time around I figured I'd try a new approach on the sound mixing. Glad you liked it!
Yes, we need to respect these ancient structures. There is a sacred feeling about them. The people and the life they lived there matter and we should respect that!
Thank you. More people need to show these places respect when they visit. Glad you agree!
Your videography is wonderful along with a just as wonderful narration. You my man have talent. Also very nice editing of video.
Thank you, Beth! I am excited to return to the area in a few months and visit some more of these lost houses. I appreciate you watching, and glad you enjoyed this one.
Love this , well done !
Thank you!
So relieved to know that I'm not the only crazy one who loves and feels intrigued by the dilapidated buildings. They have a story to tell and I'm always all ears .
There's a few of us crazies willing to go in them. This one had never had the chance to tell the story.
Your videos of these places never cease to captivate me. I'm not sure how much time I would have to spend there, myself, to feel I had enough time to drink it all in. I had taken note, as you did, of by how many years the original "fortress" sections of these castles, out lasted the later 19th century additions. This has been consistent from place to place. There was a significant difference between the construction of the building portions that served as protection, verses those built to provide a carefree life of luxury and privilege, despite the materials "seeming" to be the same. Once again, an impeccable choice of background music. Thanks for sharing your discoveries. I hope you're able to make your way to all of the other remaining ruins.
I think you're right. It seems like things were built to last. Then again, they made the walls very thick too. On the trip I've had some mixed luck. Some angry bulls, security, etc. More's on the way, though! Thank you for the continued support.
Looks like something out of a fairy tale
That is exactly what it felt like being there.
The place where nuns live is called a cloister. This one must have been beautiful in it's day.
i wish I'd found more if it from back then. Sadly not much int he way of records exist, but one can imagine!
Love this one amazing place
Thanks man. You go to some crazy places. That means something!
@@DesertifyUrbex thanks mate keep up the amazing voice over intros
This is wonderful, intriguing ruins, beautiful forest and music.
Thanks Barbara. If you haven't peeked at my other Ireland videos, I would check them out. I will be returning briefly to record a few more this year!
A great piece of work. It still holds a haunting type of mystery that makes it a history where you don't really want the answers to. I am now off to listen to a couple of Clannad albums. Thanks.
Haha, love that band. Had tickets to see them at a show that was cancelled due to covid. Hopefully they tour again.
Nice to have narration describing some aspects of the place. A sketch of the layout would be nice, showing the older and newer sections, which rooms and hallways were for what. Interesting, nature reclaiming what was hers, since Man elected to no longer use it. Seems like such a waste, a magnificent structure like that gone to ruins, its history erased.
Thanks Dave. Sadly not a lot was recorded of this one, but that's a great idea to add a layout of the building if it exists. Of all the 30k castles of Ireland, most now rotting away, this one has to be one of the most unique and endangered.
@@DesertifyUrbex - I'm not very good at compliments; I subscribed and liked, so that's my approval. What I had in mind wasn't plans dating back hundreds of years, but a block sketch (with a ruler or not, only approximate measures), showing entrances and what look like principal structures, refined or tidied up back at your office. It's not easy to do (for me). Architectural programs get far too involved, but basic principles of how to sketch aren't hard. Then as you narrate, you could describe and orient us a bit more, to add to the overall impression. Some guys take drone footage of a building, which gives a good idea, but the video on the inside shows nameless rooms and hallways with little or no location given (e.g. only "2nd floor, a room", which doesn't say enough). A good drone photo might be useful to refer to as you narrate. In this video here, you show the steps in a tower, which is very cool, but no indication of north or south. It just seems to me that it might be worth a few seconds of a video to put up a sketch or photo with a compass indication, and in the narration give us some sense of the location of the shots as you take them, or a brief text overlay done in editing (e.g. "south one of two towers, 20 feet up"). Your vids are among the best for the shots, slow panning, narration, atmosphere and chosen subject.
Wow, thank you. I am quite lucky to have viewers like yourself. This is a very good idea and very timely. We just got a drone and are in testing phase of using it, so this is all very doable. An overhead shot, pause, and break down of the building structure is an excellent concept. I will see if I can integrate this when the drone makes its entrance. Really appreciate this suggestion.
@@DesertifyUrbex --- I just know you guys broke into that place through the collapsed section of wall! (Joke.)
@@davesmith5656 I know hah! Looks like the Kool-Aid guy visited.
There was a fire there, you can still see the soot on the old walls.
Good catch. I found it weird as there is no history of a major fire. My top guesses are residual burns from the fireplaces, or more likely a few small fires made by vandals or some partiers post 1960s abandonment.
Great video man so much info in there!! I'll need to get the boat over to Ireland to check this out 😀 we uploaded a new video today of a Scottish castle! You might like it!
I just checked it out, nice job! Am subscribed.
Good video but the camera moved too fast and around too much.it was hard to focus when the camera moved again
Great script and narration. Enjoyed it very much. You would be great at narrating documentaries. You have a gift for painting word pictures and descriptions of the things in your video or of what your partner was filming.
Thanks Linda! I think I hid from the camera decently well in this one lol. I used to do radio for quite some time, which probably helps a little. When I started this I found most videos focus on the person and I very much felt the focus should be on the experience of exploring the building with a guide of a narrator. Really happy you're enjoying the end result.
@@DesertifyUrbex
My compliments!
Awesome video mate
Thank you!
the narrow staircase could of been the servants one, as these were smaller and hidden from the main house, allowing the servants to more about unseen, while doing there jobs
That's very insightful and I think you're probably right. I also noticed another possible stair which was inaccessible due to the very dangerous floor state. My thought is the other stairs have rotted away with time. Thank you for mentioning this!
Actually you have a very calming voice you could be so good on nature programmes and the music suits the peaceful monastary. Thanks again I don't know how many times I have looked at this wow
Thanks so much Patricia! You're going to love our next location then. A similar explore but of an extremely ornate mansion overtaken and now one with nature.
Thank you for this beautiful filming of this place..
Did you find cellars etc?.
Thank you for exploring it with us. I was curious as to their existence, but found no evidence of any, sadly.
Amazing find and beautyfull place i have enjoy this video greetings from the Netherlands Chris
Thank you Chris!
All things shall pass.Sleep gently and consider your ambitions.
Very poetically said.
This place looks amazing. I just love the way mother nature has taken over it.
These have to be my favorite types of spots. Thank you.
Esa
what is Esa
Great Video. Great Commentary. Best on utube
Wow, thank you!
Beautifull video and the music is very well chosen. Thank you
Thank you! It's a very special place and I'm so very glad we had the chance to share it with you all.
Smashing video of that grand auld castle. Looking forward to seeing more of your videos.
Thank you. Really glad you enjoyed and I'd check out some of the other mansions on my Ireland playlist if you haven't yet. There are some more very forgotten ones on there.
Very interesting video. You did a terrific video and audio presentation. 👍
Thank you! This really is one of my favorites. Truly timeless. You may enjoy my other Abandoned Ireland locations as well.
Always thumbs up!!! thanks
Thank you friend!
Good work and presentation. But it strikes me as a bit off and odd, look at all the brick work. If it is as old as claimed, it means the tech with bricks is older then just the new stuff, and the red fired bricks seem to be the most common and the old style of buildings seem to have this old things covered and claimed to be younger then they really are. I do not know, just asking because it seems off and odd to me.
From the historic records I based the information off the tower is the main stone structure from the 1400s and has very thick stone walls which is normal for a building of the period. Over many centuries it was built upon with brick until the 1800s, and embellished, likely leaving little of the original building other than the tower core section.
@@DesertifyUrbex It is cool, do not get me wrong, but if this was all done before the 1800's, It means, I am not sure if you have not noticed, the same structures in schools, and where they had this extra large door ways on all the rooms, where they end up covering half of it with wood and the door at the bottom, as a way to detract for the original age. It happens a lot in America, and you have school houses in nothing but red bricks.
@@glenn_gallaher What I mean is I am mostly in agreement, and the records show too that the building is mostly from the 1800s, except the large tower which is also built upon in newer styles.
@@DesertifyUrbex Agreed. But still an idea you may want to look into. It may surprise you. Because if the same buildings you are taught in are as old as 1800, it gives the idea that this world was built for us in ways that have been hidden. Not because of what we can re-do today, but because if you look on the videos you show, they all have this red brick type showing up. I agree that the world is old, but no where close to millions of years. because I have never meet this million year old man that can verify the pretend science today claims. But the building style is as least 1800 that we can produce today. The same can be said about the roads that we build, and that today the roads, a person can spend their entire life repaving the same 10 miles. And it gets me to wonder, if the tech is real, and we have taken a step back and not forwards. It means that the tech that built the old buildings, were more advanced then today.
What a fantastic journey.
Thank you Mary Ann! More coming soon.
Wow what a stunning old castlw wouldve loved to see this place in its glory. Thank u for your story telling and amazing vlog most enjoyable.
Thanks Michelle. You are going to love our next video I think. Really appreciate you exploring this lost place with us :)
thanks to you a memory has been saved. great job.life of long ago.
You make a good point. I think part of what we do (explorers, urbexers, etc) is to document these before they finally crumble away or are demolished to make room for buildings. They are cultural heritage and also simply a glimpse at what the world's future may be once we're gone.
🍃🌿Beautiful, when nature🌾 entwine with the tower's structure's stone arches, tries to reclaim the things that were used to built it.🌿
This one is very special. Hoping to find a few more as unique :).
Such peaceful decay, as nature casually takes back own...beautiful!! Thanks for posting, enjoyed the video.
Thank you so much for joining us. In this one, I finally had addressed the volume issues, and hope to keep this better controlled.
Impressive. Thankyou.
Welcome, glad I could bring it to you!
You don't need a computer to build! They have been doing this for years!
Nice find mate ! Love how you done your video !
Thanks, I think the footage came out a bit better than the last! I swung by and subbed. Keep the great content coming.
Thank mate - i see ya go an insta so im gonna give it a follow
It's amazing how nature takes back the land that these castles are built on. Absolutely awesome video.
Thank you so much. One of my all time favorites. If you haven't seen others from the series, my mansions of Ireland playlist is here and I bet you'd enjoy these lost houses as well: (Playlist link starting with "The Nun's Mansion" where you can skip ahead) th-cam.com/video/gE32AfNJ01s/w-d-xo.html
@@DesertifyUrbex thank you, I will check them out too.
I remember this was the first video I had watched on your channel. :o)
Very cool. A good intro, and still the only video of this mansion I've seen. It's quite a peaceful place.
@@DesertifyUrbex
I've tried 3x to answer. I give up.
Begitu sayang di tingalkan begitu saja..coba la di berdihkan dan di baik pulih jadikan mezium peningalan dari orang terdahulu..
I also wanted to participate in this adventure ... it's amazing !!!!💚💙💛🦚🦜
I always find it amazing the craftsman ship and skill used to build these places long before power tools and computers. Nobody , and I mean NOBODY has that kind of skill today. Awesome sight. Thnx for the vid.
I certainly think these castles that were converted to mansions benefit from the 3 foot thick walls, built stone by stone. You're right, modern brick or concrete buildings do not hold a candle to them. I'm glad you enjoyed this one. It's one of my favorites, and I plan to be bringing more mansions just like this to you this Summer!
@@DesertifyUrbex - Yes, amazing. That huge tower still standing after 1,000 years, completely exposed to the elements. A modern building would rust away in 100, planned obsolescence and all. I can't help but think of the men and women and children who worked and played there.
@Jody Owen You're spot on here. I have noticed companies in the UK and Ireland that specialize in restorations that fit the scheme of the govt. allowed practices. This is all doable still!
@Jody Owen I get pretty creepy on these mansions too ! Lol. The idea of tooth brushing away dirt or sand got me out of Anthropology and Archaeology. I can only imagine.
Nice video i love it and thanks for shareing....
Thank you❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You are very welcome. Thanks so much for watching.
Wow amazing place
Thank you!
There amid the enchanted timbers hides an edifice, alluring in its taunting of time's arrow. Having crested the arch. What would they that made there their home ever had thought of this surely non-existent distance, the dancing of days? Would they even have? And yet, all in good time, draws us, not still, but more with the temptation of a many, great unknowable tales of antiquity, told no more, but kept for all eternity enchanting forest lore. This is the thing we are here for!
Thank you, gentlemen for sharing this magnificent place with the rest of us!
Thank you for watching and exploring it with us!
Stunning. Great work!
Thanks Andrea! This place is on my mind often. Truly peaceful and haunting.
Truly a beautiful place sleeping peacefully, once more entwined with nature.
Well put! It is a place I think of often.
Really good video. Does these place belong to the church? Why would the church abandon a convent?
Very good question there. It used to belong to an order of nuns, but was sold to a farmer. There are a stunningly large number of abbeys, convents and monasteries abandoned there. It really surprised me.
Desertify Urbex: Abandoned Places The nuns never owned it, they leased it.
Amazing, and all built without using electricity, trucks or cranes used today. Few things built today can last even a century.
So true. 1,000 years and the tower is standing strong. Thank you for exploring it with us.
Where is the castle it is perplexing not to give it a context
Thank you for this wonderful video. I very much enjoyed every minute of it. Greetings from the USA.
Thanks Mike! I hope to return to Ireland to record more soon there. Sadly with the current situation have had to cancel, but it's next up in the plans.
People today depend on technology instead of the talents that Creation had granted him.
This is why man can no longer build structures like this today because technology had taken over the world.
People are lazy when it comes to using his or her talents.
Hit the nail on the head. I'd give up most strip malls, prefabbed houses and businesses I see very day for more places like this in a heartbeat.
Hello, such huge places.. The way you hold your Camera. as close as you were. how they made Huge places remarkable they are still standing the materials that were use to make them. Does anyone know .??
These places always awe me. It took many many years to build them. Each stone shaped by hand, scaffolding, pulleys, winches, lots of raw labor. They last forever but many will soon be dust.
I bet it smelled old too. What a place. I would camp out there for a while and see what comes knocking around. Who's down for a weekend camping out ?
It had a certain musty smell in areas. The part closer to the woods out back was very ivy covered and had fresh air and breezes.
Wow ! Beautiful ..what a shame it was destroyed ...thank you the music made it very peaceful to enjoy the video
You are welcome. This place really set me at ease despite the very dangerous swinging parts of walls. It's an amazing place.
Some one needs to get a metal detector.
Because I am Irish I wish could seen it up in running it problem was the most beautiful place in Ireland thank for the respect that you gave this I from new orleans there are many black in white irish people here god bless you on your travels
My pleasure! I hope to have more from Ireland coming up :) This has to be one of my favorite totally unknown castle mansions.
Is that castle church oh no the nun is true story the valack

Missing your fabulous covers and narrations,,,have you retired or changed channels ?
Back soon! Thanks for hanging in, and keep an eye out :)
Totally awesome! All of the views fascinating! Thanks!
Thank you!
Hi there thanks for the surprise xxxx Maria Connolly, flat 9, Northpark court, wallasey merseyside England ch44_6pp xxx
Hi Maria. I am trying to mail the item, but having issues with the address. Is there another street or anything I should list? Can you email me at desertify7@gmail.com Thank you!
I also did want to mention the contest was listed as US entrants only. I did not know you were UK based. I will still send if the shipping is reasonable, but it has run as high as 50+ dollars sending things to my mother there, so be aware it may not be possible. I will do my best within reason however to make it happen! :)
Amazing. New subscriber. Thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching Patrick. We have some amazing places on the way from Scotland coming up!
WHY IS THE QUALITY SO BAD... IT'S VERY VERY ANNOYING!! : (
Hi Brad. Thanks for watching.
Shitty little bricks,,,,
Awesome place that needs a little attention. Cut the vines out and small trees and it should stop the place from falling apart.
I do think the towers could be saved along with the main hall. Thank you for watching!
Wonderfull. It is just sad that goverment don't protect these castle's. This is history for children to learn and see how humans lived 100 years ago. How this was build by hand .And the history around it. Thanks for the video.
Thanks Alex. Lots of heritage in Ireland lies rotting as we speak. It feels like a race trying to capture it sometimes.
The hideously curropt irish government want to erase --- history
I had a dream about being in this Castile I know we’re valak died in a tiny little dark room
It's the perfect setting for The Nun, isn't it?
The ivy is picturesque but is very destructive to the masonry. Very sad to see the mansion in such a sorry state.
It really does tear the fabric apart. The newest parts are very damaged by it here, but the tower was built strong. One of my favorite places to just take a while to sit and take in.
Love the architecture
Rebuilt the building

I can't help but imagine that, if you were leaving at dusk, if you looked back there would be faces watching you from every window.
"And travellers now within that valley,
Through the red-litten windows, see
Vast forms that move fantastically
To a discordant melody;
While, like a rapid ghastly river,
Through the pale door,
A hideous throng rush out forever,
And laugh --but smile no more." - The Fall of the House of Usher
@@DesertifyUrbex The Haunted Palace, Edgar Allan Poe. Brilliantly quoted!
Sorry...obstacle..
Unless this place is protected by a historical society,it would be neat to use a metal detector here.
It is not, but is on private property and Ireland has very strict laws barring almost anybody from metal detecting, sadly. I can only imagine what lies under some of these place, though!
wow, what a great place.
It would be cold
I sense a banshee.
It's prime real estate for that!
so sad these beautiful mansions and castles etc, going to ruin .
The world is a weird place for sure. i often find them sad, but also very peaceful now that nature has taken over.. Thanks for watching!
The construction techniques are awesome...how did they get those tall walls so straight from a composite of small irregular shaped rocks and bricks and wood.Amazing.Great coverage of an era when money was no object.
Thanks John. This is one of my favorite locations I've had the good luck to reach. Something about the unique age and state of the tower and the eerily blowing vines. It's lost in time.
Desertify Urbex: Abandoned Places we have a saying “down under” for anyone who’s a risk taker...”you’re a better man than me Ghunga Dhin” I reckon that applies to the hero climbing that spiral staircase!!
@@johnkelly516 I am very lucky to have my videographer, Thinkmaker. I think nothing of going into tunnels or caves, but I can't do crazy heights, and they step up every time. I have never seen before or after any video or photo of those stairs made. You're spot on there.
Love this! Love the music! Could you put thumbnail pictures of before pics to some of areas you enter?
Thank you so much :) I normally do, but there simply is nothing on record from the nuns or before them. Just the one or two outside photos. It is a real shame as I know it would have been amazing inside. It is still a very special and atmospheric place.
@@DesertifyUrbex what you are documenting will be a part of continued History! Ty so much
This is very much like a dream I had when I was 12 years old
For me it also felt like I was suspended in time. A very surreal place. I'm glad it brought back a memory like that for you, and thank you for watching!
treasure is at the top
I wish lol
Great video! What's the name of this castle?
Thanks Andrea! I do not name locations as a policy to keep them from being damaged or shut down due to traffic.
I was kind of hoping for a winding stone staircase in the towers
oh! I spoke too soon....the stairs! so awesome....I absolutely love imagining life in castles....great find.
Hehe, was about to say there is. I also think there's other stairs, but to get to them you'd have to cross the overgrown ceiling, which is a risky one.
I enjoyed but wish the camera work was slowed down. My head is spinning from the constant camera turning. A slow pan of each view would be better.
Hi John. Thanks for watching. This was probably the first video we used out new gimbal in, and it showed. I think we've mostly corrected it in the last year or so and hopefully you find this true in our newer material and give it a go!
@@DesertifyUrbex Thanks for letting me know.
BTW, that was not only cool castle, but the forest floor of ivy was stupendous. Glad you caught some pans of that.
@@johnbrown3711 The way nature combines with these places can be truly jaw dropping.
You should have went to Charlieville 😀
One of my new videos includes Charleville forest :)
Amazing find,good forest area😉
Thank you. It's a beautiful place.
I know I'm late, but, great video! I enjoy exploring...I also enjoy swinging a metal detector & this location would be awesome to hunt. Thanks for the tour.
Hey, never to late to enjoy this one. It's timeless and I hope it endures for a few more centuries. Thanks for checking it out!
I would have liked to see some photos of it in the past.
Thanks for watching Anne. Other than the one I showed in the video I looked high and low and never was able to find any others, even at any historic sites. It might have been due to its use as a monastery and lack of photography existing before that.
