- In this video we visit former locations we have previously visited. We have new information on these locations. We re visit Stockport and the Winters shop to see the refurbished wooden antique figures. We visit the Manchester Bury Bolton canal where we will look for the former Kilcoby New Outwood brickworks and also Rhodes canal locks where we find a hidden surprise. Plus and update on upcoming videos
Boy talk about a wrong turn.... The Winter's building is really coming along, top notch job on the figures. At the brickworks, if those walls could only talk and tell their story. The brickworks segment was like your early work, just you, your camera and your great narration. Martin, while on your adventures maybe bring along a metal detector to look for little bits of the past. You are so proud of you home--Manchester. This was a great watch, thanks for your hours of work......
Martin that would be great for you to go back once more to Winters to record the chiming of the clockworks, as you say the final missing piece. They certainly did a great job on the building.
OMG the figures at Winters are *amazing* 😮. Similar to how I remember them as a kid, will be lovely to hear them chime again 💗 Love your humour in the vids and lovely to see a tiny glimpse of my now old friend, Wet Earth Colliery. Have you looked at all at the Navigable Levels between Worsley and Farnworth? 52miles of underground canals but apparently virtually nothing visible remains with the exception of the tunnels at Worsley (*very great danger of gas). They are an incredible feat of engineering with boats travelling across multiple underground levels using a ramp+lock mechanism. It’s a lost industrial wonder of the world to me! 😍. Imagine building that in the late 1700s-early 1800s. Brilliant vids as always, Martin 💗
Great update- I always look forward to winter only because a lot of what I am interested in re-appears out of the undergrowth as summer foliage dies back!
Margaret Barlow's tea rooms 1820s
M.B.B.C information included 👍
Enjoy this little treat .. especially
For the restoration group I'm a member of on Facebook .
Great Images Martin
as usual 👍 Found a boat too. 👍.
First, as they say. Amazing how much foliage can hide remains during summer, great that you were able to revisit and find stuff such as that boat abandoned in the canal.
Sunday doesn't feel right without a Martin video. Thanks mate
From the Netherlands we really enjoy your videos. No need for apologize for not rushing things. Take your time to make the excellent videos about Manchester and surroundings. We will wait.
Your one of the biggest advertisement for the North of England!
Thank you very much for watching. Much appreciated
You know what - I love your passion. Most people surely wouldn't get so emotional if they found the old steel boat.
Really like your personality, so informative, educational, and all who follow you surely share your passions including me.
Sending our best and thanks 😊
You get a totally different perspective when the vegetation has gone away. These revisits are great,Martin.
Yeah, places are very different
Oh that's frightening. Your cloning James now. ARGH. Are you planning to unleash a tea army onto the world!. Good video by the way
Good easy-to-watch video Martin! Most enjoyable.
It's good to see the 'Winters' figures after restoration. A very nice job.
Hi Martin, the building occupied my Margaret Barlows tea gardens still stands adjacent to the small access road to Giants Seat Garden Centre. This road follows the line of the infilled MBBC canal towpath! Indeed a large monkey puzzle was situated in the grounds beside this building (now the garden centre). Steven Parker, MBBCG.
Winters...
What a great thing. Hope their business does great.
Loved seeing the update on the winters figurines Carnt wait to see them
Chime ….
Thanks for the update. No rush, your videos are always worth waiting for.
From what I can see, Margaret Barlow's Tea Rooms is still there by the garden centre, I just found a very old eBay listing picture of the tea rooms, and zooming in on Google Maps with the 3D view, I spotted the exact same building as in the picture, it's the building at the end of the main car park. I think it now has a full width conservatory at the front, it's not clear from the Google 3D model, might just be a tent thing, but the building has one small chimney on top, three windows on the 1st floor!
Yes it certainly loks like it could be. The pitch of the roof is the same, as you say the chimneys and windows are in different positions. Good spot!
@Eddie Riff Not from Street View, I tried that first, you have to zoom in using the 3D option.
@@Zentron Just had a quick look and you can make out the side of the building from a short distance, there is a barrier on red Rock lane.
martin, perhaps you could go to the garden centre, and ask permission to film the building inside and out? i’m so curious!
Love your commitment mate. Please keep them coming. 👍
Thank you Mr Martin about the serie Medlock Wet earth collery Regards from Sweden
The david Attenborough of the urban landscape.... very compelling videos martin
Great catch up. We'll worth doing.
So honest and straight forward. What a great vlog! Well done! Enjoyed every second :)
Thanks for the updates Martin, very interesting
great video thankyou for the updates.
Great little update vid. Those figures outside winters shop absolutely fab. The lock with the buried boat absolutely loved that. Can’t wait for next one as always 👏👍
Great update video. Enjoyed seeing the renovated shop in Stockport, for some reason it reminds me of the Dad's Army episode with the German parachutist!! Nice to see other pictures of the area near Margaret Barlows Tea rooms. Well done!!
I was looking for Harry Lime at the beginning.
So was I 😀
Thanks for the video Martin totally enjoyed. Winters looks stunning you must hear the bells 🔔 chime then we would get a look too. Good to see deer In Manchester look out for Father Christmas!! 🎅 😎☕🍂☕🐓🐓🇬🇧
What a brilliant update , carnt believe i missed this one till now. Good on James for thinking to bring spare cloths for when he got out of the tunnels after that wrong turn.😆
Any dude with a Tardis on his desks is worth a like lol , great stuff
great update, especially Stockport. What history. Take your time Martin, your video's are always worth waiting for and by doing it proper even more so. Very best wishes. Bob
Wow. One more medloc. Looking forward to it.
Martin nicely filling in the gaps. Thanks for sharing and have a good week !
You are just amazing and priceless 👌
Same for us, autumn is a good time to find mine portals when the foliage has died back.
Yeah, I bet they are one hell of a find
Very interesting and a very nice tash 😊
Glad you popped back to that shop absolutely beautiful
Yer Martin love your stuff you tread where so called documentary makers wouldn't dare venture, keep it Martin great work
yes~~ow so good!
Playing catch up with your videos at the moment Martin, all your videos are amazing, enjoyable and informative, the outwood area ones hold an extra special interest for me as they are a stones throw away from where i live and id never find the stuff you do, take care on your travels, onto the next video
Hi Martin,
I have been able to find a small amount of reference to the New Outwood Brick Works, on a page about the Outwood Colliery:
"Following the acquisition of the colliery by Outwood Collieries Limited, a series of improvements were carried out (...) A completely new brickworks was also built, being brought into production in 1927."
Regarding closure:
"The colliery became part of Manchester Collieries Ltd in 1929 and it was around this time that production ceased, and the colliery was put on a care & maintenance basis.
However, an underground fire developed which ate its way into the shaft pillar, and in 1930 one of the shafts collapsed. The headgear fell into the shaft, the winding rope slicing through the engine house wall like a cheese cutter.
This event put an end to any hopes of bringing the colliery back into production, and it was formally abandoned in 1931.
Operations at Outwood (the coal washing plant) finally ceased in 1956."
So potentially the New Brickworks could have been abandoned as early as 1929; or as late as 1956. Unfortunately that's the only useful reference I've been able to find, referring to the New Outwood Brick Works.
The moustache is looking majestic martin.
Thank you very much Wilf
Another great video
Great little video Martin, good to have these updates from time to time. Much appreciated.
Great video! The mustache suits you.
Another brilliant video.
Thank you Martin This week video see next week. i do like this update video.
Brilliant, hope you're keeping well young man 🖖✌🏼💯👊🏻
Martin wonderful video. Meriden, Kansas
Great video 👍
Enjoyed the update Martin, winters is looking great! 🔴🟡🟢❣
Thank you for rambling 😍
Thank you for watching
Another great video Martin
I seen a deer just off the east lancs in swinton
Thanks for featuring the clock in Stockport with the figures. It's been recently renovated and returned to full working order. Reminds me of clocks in Germany and Switzerland.
Good stuff, you hairy devil! Always good to catch up with the previous videos, as new information comes to light.
💪🧠 Martin always a great watch…. the boys out together 💙🎵
thanks for that martin
Nice one Martin👍 enjoyed that,
Great stuff
Great to have a catch up. You need to ensure that Lucas is taught how to make a proper brew!
It's brilliant filling in the little gaps. Cheers Martin, God bless 🙏
Good ol' Martin love the videos mate
Enjoyed watching you explore Martin 😁 Interesting to see the boat!
Hi, I am in Perth, Western Australia I am English and I agree with what you said about Foxes and Deer there are a lot now especially in urban areas. Here in WA I see many many foxes at night, they were introduced here by the gentry so they could hunt. I always enjoy you videos and also a guy called John Rogers he lived where I was bought up, yes a bloody southerner 😆😆 keep up the good work Martin.
That was superb. Just a wee refresher to our memories. Thoroughly enjoyed this. Look forward to what’s ahead thank you
That was really interesting. It brought back several "Oh yeah. I remember that" moments. Thank you. It was thoroughly enjoyable.
Really enjoyed that. Nature doesn’t take long to take back. How great you found the brickworks how exciting. The boat in the canal seems a fitting way for the boat to go, what a find that was. Thanks so much for the share. Please stay safe and take care
That was a nice wrap up of loose ends 👍🏻 Thanks Martin 🙏❤️
Thanks very much Tobbe
I am not from Manchester infarct live up in Glasgow another great industrial city but so enjoy watching your videos. As a child I lived in a small village on the outskirts of Glasgow next to a steel works and bleach works, it sounds bad but it was just places we went and looked at in fascination of what went on there. It's all gone completely now and probably for the better.
Thanks for doing this video, its nice to get some updates for previous visits. I agree 100% in getting the projects how you want them to look, it takes as long as it takes and this always shows in the finished work. Your work is always worth the wait.
Thanks very much Yorkie
You should also know your way in all those corridors.
Lucas, hi also exploring.
Still special to find the old lock and a narrow boat.
Great Martin👍Moved to Ireland in da last 6 weeks from Manchester and really missing the city good to watch your videos 👌
Around the corner from winters is a mueseum with elizabethan walls inside quite fascinating and well worth a visit
Did I not do it in my Stockport video Nathan ?
The boat was intriguing but I thought that they were generally built of wood. With it being iron I wonder if it was associated with dredging and carrying away the mud?
I'm pretty sure narrow boats are made of steel plate.
@@mikeursell3038 They are! Though there would likely have been earlier wooden craft, especially in the early part of the industrial revolution, for carrying coal and raw materials for industry.
The first narrowboats were oak on elm, then rivited iron, then steel.
@@gaffysmenk , there should be signs of where the top deck was secured to the hull. there also may be ribs of the hull. i saw neither. there was a maximum width and length of boats for each different canal system. this information is available and is critical in declaring if it is a boat or not.
Martin I wish you would do a talk somewhere, Stockport would be great or the Friends Meeting House in Manchester. Great work 👏
Great update mate, cheers
Thanks Nix 👍
Thanks so much for your hard work. It always appreciated, Martin.
Good video Martin bet you wished James was there with his brews & biscuits bet that was a good find when you found that boat shame you carnt see a name on it that would be a bonus 👍
Thanks for the update. More channels should do this. You probably don't have time on one shoot to go into detail but these updates do the trick! Don't forget to have a brew in the updates too.
Yes a canal boat indeed, the hole at the front had a huge bit of wood in it that the rope went around.
Enjoyed catching up with some new information, especially the location of Margaret Barlow's Tea Room as I so enjoyed that particular video. The boat was also an exciting find!
Giants Seat Garden Centre, is run by the Kidd family, I was in the same class at school as Stephen Kidd, so he would be 66 now. I know that area so well down there before I was banished to the south coast. I was out walking that area one day with the dog, and there was a splash and a stag, swam across the Irwell ( complete with antlers) and got out on the opposite bank and stood looking at me. I did get a picture but it was the early days of smart phones, and the quality was just a bit better than piss poor. Another occasion I was standing on the metal footbridge over the Irwell near the sewage works, that carry’s people across to the Clifton Marina side watching some young men fishing the Irwell below, I thought they won’t catch anything there, when one of them hooked a bloody great Pike and landed it. Was great to see fish returning to the Irwell I did have footage of that but it’s long since gone. So many happy memories of walking a Jack Russell terrier in that area on a daily basis. Next time you are down there call in to the Horse Shoe Pub in Ringley great food, and a good pint the old canal runs around the perimeter of the car park at the side.
Yeah I love it down there as well Gary. Great story about the stag, what a sight !!
Walking Doffcocker Brook, from the lodge in Heaton to the River Croal, in Queens Park, Bolton, would be a fairly soft project. It's mostly under culvert but escapes a couple of times, particularly at Mortfield.
16:12 This is why you're one of my favourite youtubers to watch, when you've "finished" something you watch it again later with fresh eyes and ears then make it better. That's way to do it! Absolute legend Martin :)
Thanks very much 👍
I've spotted wild deer in collyhurst on sandhills was shocked and amazed to see them
Yes thanks Martin that was a nice update on the statues I’m so pleased to see they’ve got them back in working order
Great seeing a revisit and more finds of interest 👌
Interesting!
When you go back to Stockport, it's not far along the A6 to New Mills. There's a path along the river at New Mills, set in a ravine, with the remains of mills with information boards and interesting bridges. There is small museum and information centre near the junction of the three roads. Well worth a visit.
OOEE mates ... Lucas and James.... put the kettle on, James has a brew.
Another cracking video Martin. Thanks for making it.
Thanks Martin for a great vlog. Take care and all the best. Stevie
These catchup videos are great and should be a permanent feature of the channel.
I want total peace , no disturbances no social media oh a new Martin zero video ok then count me in
😆👍
Beautiful scenery! I liked your reaction to finding that metal boat.
Yeah, been there before so never expected to see that
Good video
If a thing is worth doing - it is worth doing right!
Thanks, Martin, another enjoyable video. It doesn't matter that I don't know the places, you manage to make it interesting anyway. I think the reason the New Outwood brickworks wasn't built with New Outwood bricks though, was that there weren't any until it was built.
Martin enjoyed that video, but I found my self shouting when you were in the lock “ yes Matin. It’s a boat! “ . We need the technology to talk to you n your video!
