Love this Channel, not just because I grew up in the Black Country but because you have great presentation skill and the music just makes it more enjoyable. Thank you.
I walk through Himley Plantation quite often. A little while ago I tried to trace back the story of Gideon Grove, a stableboy that was killed during the confrontation that happened around the corner at Holbeche House between the king's soldiers and the gunpowder plotters. Despite not actually being one of the plotters himself, he fled and was chased down and killed. From the various sources I looked at I'm pretty sure that I've managed to find the most likely spot within Himley Plantation itself. It's an innocent looking place but it looks like it may have a somewhat darker history. Listen out when you next visit. I've only ever seen one there once, but I quite regularly hear muntjac deer calls while walking there.
Thanks for sharing this I'll do some more research on the area soon that holbeche house is interesting shame it's all boarded up in a derelict state I'll have listen for the deer next time would love to spot one

My favourite dog walk baggeridge through to himley
Definitely it's a good black country walk that been a while since I've walked to himley from there
@@drewsoutdooradventures01 Himley plantation is a labyrinth. Id recommend highgate common and Bratch canal in that area.
@@benhale7787 thanks for recommending that I'll check those out tomorrow
