What a wonderfully relaxing video for your viewers . St Anne's is a place that is sheer class. No wonder so many of the old stars bought houses there. I love the fact that there is such a lot of seating available (for those who need to sit down regularly) I loved Ashton Gardens and all the lovely shops. Thanks so much Stephen, looking forward to watching your other videos on this wonderful place.
Thanks Marilyn.
I’m going to enjoy seeing this video. Many a time , and I’m talking 60 years ago , I visited my grandparents house in Fairlawn Road. You knew you’d arrived when you saw the windmill . And visiting the indoor circus at Blackpool Tower and seeing Charlie Caroli and the ring be flooded at the end of the show.
St annes is a lovely place 👍
Nice to see St Anne's ,have never been before ,great video Stephen x
Had to miss this as it went out but caught up on replay. St Anne’s looks a beautiful tranquil place probably more for an older age group more so than Blackpool obviously. The little town and shops look so quaint. Look forward to parts 2 & 3.👍
I was only there Sunday love the place I'd move if could afford it but visit as often as possible thanks for the great vlog as always spot on 👍
I like going to the duck pond.
Fair haven lake…..this is one nice place and calm…
Nice update series Stephen thanks 4 these updates town is less busy then blackpool even in winter can't wait for part 2 and 3
This was lovely. I was straight into rightmove 😂😂 xx
Near the barnardos charity shop in St Anne's is the building where Frank Dickinson the man who invented contact lenses practiced ,there is a plaque outside to commemorate his work and you missed it. He is an unrecognized hero and deserves a mention for changing the world for a lot of people
I did not know about that. I'll have to check it out when next there.
I used to live in a the middle floor flat at the end of the terrace houses next to the railway line, I absolutely loved living in the square. I got married in the church next to Ashton Gardens and had my wedding pictures taken next to the pond. My Grandparents lived near the old pre bonds site and my Mum grew up in St Annes and worked in Boots in the Square.
The private DR’s was my bank “The Royal Bank of Scotland “ but it closed a couple of years ago and moved into the NatWest opposite. I’m not sure if the Bet Fred was the old Lloyds Bank.
I wonder if they made gardens like that in Blackpool town centre if people would treat it nicer, St Annes Square is always looking nice and clean and it’s nice to hear the birds.
There was another good camera shop on St David’s Road to the left of the Catholic Church and a Jesops in the Square, if someone opened another it would do well the nearest one we found was in Kendal shopping centre.
Very nice food at the Ashton Park Cafe.Seafarers worth a visit too.
Thanks for part one of the presentation of St Annes. I think it's such a lovely area, and I look forward to part two very soon! Cheers Stephen
Good Camera 🤳 work Stephen.
The number 15 is a real ale pub 👍
Wonderful video Stephen, again. Thank you so much for this. 🙋
Great walk Stephen. My wife & I visit St Anne's & Lytham many times during the year. I only wish we would have relocated there when we retired. The Fylde coast is a wonderful part of Lancashire & indeed the UK.
My wife loves all the charity shops there drives me mad waiting for her
Thanks for coming to visit us here in St Annes - great video as usual.
Gerrard's Auction rooms used to be a denture factory!
Number 15 was Lloyd's Bank, now an excellent pub with a very impressive interior.
I worked in the denture factory when I'd just left school at 16 !
Hi Steve, Lovely Video of St Anne's I think I could be quite happy living there, what a splendid park & some beautiful propertys & those gardens are beautifully well maintained we missed you last night. Well Steve has always hopefully catch you on the next one all the best Dave &Nigel
Fairhaven lake is beautiful as well very peacefulxx😂
We went to Windermere in 1971 and we saw Alan Hardaker and his wife walking down the street.😇😇❤️
I mention Mr Hardaker near the end of the video. He was the secretary of the English Football League, who's HQ was here in St Annes.
@@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool and most people today wouldn't have heard of him but in his day he was a powerful man and Lytham was famous for the Football League.
Here we go, here we go Mr walk on the wild side!
Thanks for showing us St Anne's i never realized there was a Railway station i always travel to Blackpool by train all the best Paul
Now l still remembered the locals called their town in different pronunciation .. local slang like" St. Tann"..at first l didn't get used to it..a very lovely town to live in..quiet and peaceful with friendly people around..thank you Stephen once again..
The gardens are stunning, even in February. Certainly a credit to the town and the local council. Thank you for your tours Stephen, such a smart place, will put St. Anne’s on my visit list! I think Andrew Carnegie funded Blackpool Library and Art Gallery also.
Thank you Stephen for another informative video
Bet it looks great in the summer Gardens in full bloom never been to St Anne's looks very peace full prefer Blackpool cheers Stephen great video love Blackpool me Peter t darlington 👏👏👏👏📹📹📹📹🚶🚶🚶🚶👍👍
Very interesting Steven the council look after the gardens and surrounding area of the town .
Great video again Stephen. Only been to St Anne's once and that was 20 years ago! Must go there again this summer.
Hi Stephen, My Great Uncle used to work as train driver, and one of routes was St Annes-on-the-Sea to Preston. This station was originally 2 line-two platform station. My Great Uncle said the second line was discontinued in 1982 and completely removed in 1986 when station was made much smaller, with the removal of the original platform structures. St Annes-on-the-Sea has always attracted a more middle class holiday maker versus Blackpool which attracts more of working class holiday maker. There was also once a daily service from St Annes-on-the-Sea to Manchester Piccadilly train service which was withdrawn 2008
Are you fascinated in trains because I do know quite a few trains there are the class 158 class 185 class 700 class 150 class 156 class 153 and the class 390 pendileno . do you know any of these .
I lived in St Annes way back in the late 1960s residing at 2 Singleton Avenue and working at Hadley Motors which is now J & M cars in Hove road... A beautiful town which holds many fond memories for me...
Thanks a good look at St Ann's looking forward to the next one
I live in st annes with my grandad but I loved this video because I I was able to see my grandad on this wonderful TH-cam channel anyway keep up the good work
Hi Stephen great first episode from St Annes! The Number 15 pub was formaly a bank and is beautifully decorated in oak paneling in its interior, also you cant sit in the old vault and even book it for parties! You should pop on one day and check it out! Thankyou for another good video!
Another great video .keep up the good work.I really love st Anne's different pace of life to Blackpool .much more quieter.
Thanks 👍
Love st Anne's it's a nice place to go for a walk fairhaven lake is a nice scenery to capture I love fair Haven lake
Much cleaner than Blackpool.
A great video from Stephen again..Down to the memory lane and all these places names mentioned in the video bring back sweet and fond memories of St. Anne's on sea...
Hi Stephen thank you for another great video as always I absolutely love st annes its so pretty and full of character something for everyone beach shops beautiful gardens cant wait to visit again take care xx
Great video Stephen👍
great tour around St Annes. Cheers
Nice video found out some interesting stuff. Hope my next trip to UK to check it out and some of the publicity houses , cafes and restaurants. Thanks Stephen for venturing out in the wet and cold.
fabulous video, great seeing it...
Great video. 🏨 👍🏻🤗🕸
Thanks for the video Stephen, enjoyed it very much. I was born in St. Annes and the family moved to Blackpool in 1976 when I was 11 (parents bought a hotel and I went to Arnold School). Brought back a lot of memories. I can vividly recall hanging out at 1 Eleven Records deciding what singles to spend my pocket money on or whether to save up for an album. I think it may have been on Orchard Road or Wood Street although I didn't recognise the shop in the video - long time ago now. My Nan lived on St. Annes Rd East and her favourite shop was JR Taylor. The cafe there was her regular haunt. I must say that it looks like St. Annes is being looked after a lot better than Blackpool. Looking forward to the next one.
Thanks Rob.
Quality upload as always.
Thanks for sharing. Baz.
Great video Stephen. Seems there’s a lot more to St Anne’s than we saw when we went last year x
No. Fifteen is a Real Ale pub and fantastic.
Great video and great memories. I grew up in the area. The Lord Derby was originally called The Bounty (circa 1982) and was themed around ships and pirates. Very tacky but very 80s.
Really good video walkaround Steven 😊
Met a young lady from there about 30 years ago..she was very kind........
She didnt charge has much has the others...boom boom
She must have worked for a charity
What a lovely place. We'll establish place with the old buildings. Yes I agree no camera shops there a thing of the past I'm a wedding photographer and everything is online. Thank you Stephen. Fantastic content 👌...
Great video. A place I have never been before but looks a lovely place to visit.
It's amazing Barclays and Natwest banks still located at the same place after almost 45 years. I didn't see the lloyd's bank and assume it's no longer exists. The subway outlet is newly established and it's used to be a Chinese restaurant at the basement..l really enjoyed watching your videos with updated informative ..thanks Stephen..
Many thanks for your time uploading i never knew st annes had so many shops gardens next holiday im going to book a break to st annes for a change thanks again
Another great video Sir! I admittedly never knew the English HQ of the beautiful game was here! It’s try… you learn something new every day! I might just have time for part 2 now… 🤞
Love this place! Thanks, Stephen 😃
I was about to say that the train station is so cute and how it probably hasnt changed much in 50 years , then I see the amazon locker :)
Stephen I have never been to St Anne's but I must say it looks a lovely peaceful place.
The Pier looks amazing.
It looks like a nice place to retire to.
Hi Stephen, interesting video as usual. I just had to laugh when you said about the pub originally being the Ad meyeral instead of Admiral lol. Keep safe my friend.
Loved this upload thank you
Enjoyed video, looking forward to the others, many thanks Stephen.
Reckon I went in every charity shop .... had to post most of it back to Australia ... cheaper than excess baggage on the plane 😄
Great video of a very nice town. 👍
I really enjoyed this video Stephen, such a lovely place. Always look forward to your videos, they are all so very interesting Can't wait for videos 2 and 3. Thank you :)
St. Annes looks to be a really nice, dare I say it, even ye olde fashioned style seaside resort. Maybe I should make the effort to go and visit it this summer. That station was interesting, it obvuously had double lines at one time, and even has the old platform on the other side still extant.
Really enjoyed looking round St.Annes it's a lovely place.Think I remember you visiting there before but not as much detail.Thankyou and look forward to the next😁😁😘😘
It looks a lovely town I’m sure to visit there this year 👍 nice old car unsure what it is tho 🚙
great video stephen
Great video mate your the best
Thanks 👍
Love your video Stephen, even tho I'm not keen on st Anne's.
A nice change Stephen nice one
..and had the most beautiful carrot cake and coffee in the Cafe at Ashton Gardens.. yum
I am from St.Annes my Grandfather was the Head Chef at the Magestic Hotel ..It was massive! Back in the day...Sad JR Taylor's closed. Heart of the town St.Annes lost lots of Trees to Dutch Elm Disease.....some time ago....The rail Station is nothing like it was when l grew up lines to other destination s..Theatre in Aston gardens and on the peir both lost to fires and not rebuild! We lost our out door swimming pool....and College of FE which l attended back in the 70s
A really good video Stephen we love St Anne’s and have eaten in the Bakes & cakes on the Main Street and would highly recommend it👍 your videos are so very interesting and we look forward to part 2 Thanks 😁 Pauline from Blackpool living in Canada 🍁
I love the beach in st Anne's was there last summer ❤
My sister & I went to St Anne's for the day,4 year ago lasted a few hours, NOT keen. Went back to Blackpool.
Went on coach trip from Blackpool the shops are really good and if I remember there’s a coffee shop on the sea front sells beautiful hot chocolate
Right or wrong. St Annes seems a lot better looked after than Blackpool.
Fylde Council do seem to look after the garden areas better. No doubt about it. Saying that, Blackpool has a lot more visitors, of whom quite a few trash our green spaces.
If you haven’t already filmed part 3 - I’d love a visit to Ashton Gardens (off Beach Road) - I grew up there! Thanks for these videos!
Oh you already have! Just watching it now :)
Personally I always like to go to the smallest seaside towns holiday you can always have an afternoon in the neighbouring bigger resorts if you want to after covid I think I might treat myself to a few days in St Annes this summer
How I watch alot of your great work. And was wondering would you do a video on the old tram grave yard in Fleetwood. Alot of your viewers would find that realy interesting.thanks.
Good call, however, it is al fenced off so I wouldn't be able to have a close look without trespassing. I think some urban explorers have already been.
My Mum's uncle Joe used to live in a house called Fairhaven, which was on Clifton Drive... only went there once when I was really little (probably only about 6yo).. many moons ago
The seafarers is highly recommended Stephen.
Int St Anne's brilliant
thanks mate
Thanks for the review mate, dog just died.
My ex(alcoholic) Girlfriend hated Blackpool but loved St.Annes for the shopping and sites. I had to pretend I didn't have my wallet but I can say we enjoyed St.Annes very much away from the hustle and bustle of Blackpool(though I still like Blackpool for The Pleasure Beach) !"
Loved this tour through St. Anne's On The Sea. All of this fascinates me, the buildings, the parks, the RR station. Wonderful. As a suggestion, could you orient the viewer to place and location with a bit more detail during your introduction? It would be especially helpful to those of us living across the pond. Thanks!
Thanks Patricia. Maybe I should show a map & zoom in at the start, so it gives viewers a better idea of where I am.
@@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool some walks videos post the map some dont comment they just label like a chart show format
£3.80 for 2/3 hours. Very expensive. It's 50p where I live for 2 hours. 4 hours on Sat/Sun. also for 50p.
I live in Lytham St. Annes.
Was there a cinema in that pier Stephen remember going to one years ago not sure was it there
I'm looking to buy one of your photography pieces for a friend's birthday present, was just wondering what the price ranges were and if you could deliver it in person for her as she is a huge fan of your channel but unlike me hasn't met you yet. I thought a nice piece of your work would make her day and even better if she could meet you too. Can you please advise... cheers Stephen
Message me on FB pal.
@@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool just messaged you on your photography page. 👍
Hello birthday girl, Kev told me to deliver this in person. Did he tell you I was coming? Obviously not, she's fainted!
Hi great videos folloewed then from when you started.Quick question do you take out food and drink from home on your travels or do you visit shops,cafes,pubs etc.
Sometimes I travel with a flask & food if I'm out all day, but most times I'm not out long enough to get hungry or thirsty. If I do, I'll normally nip into Greggs or maybe a Wetherspoons.
Hi st annes is like southport
Can you do videos on Fleetwood?
I did a three part series last year.
Great video again Stephen, seems much greener than Blackpool, is this due to the climate/salt content in the air?
Maybe it's a bit more protected against the Irish Sea blast.
@@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool Yes it must be, no greenery could have survived Saturday in Blackpool I’m sure!
the little park at 13:30 is a disgusting dog toilet - use a torch at night
Did you know there's a masonic lodge near J R Taylor?
Yes I believe it’s next to Gerrard’s on the corner there opposite the park?
@@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool yep.
