The Historical ruins at Tide Mills, Bishopstone, Seaford, once a thriving community, now a haven for flora, fauna and many leisure activities.
Kevin and Peter take you on a journey of discovery capturing a time long gone as they explore Tide Mills' ruins, the Seaplane Base and the last remains of a convalescent home for sick boys.
This is a really, really good local history film. I don't live here yet, but I'd like to. And when I do, I will retrace your steps from this film. thank you so much.
Thanks Mike, glad you enjoyed the mystic of Tidemills, look forward to seeing you at Seaford, take care, all the best Chris
What a lovely film to watch. Thank you!
Thanks Heather, glad you like the video, take care, Chris
thanks for this capturing of history and a bit of how we lived then.
A superb video - a fantastic local resource.
I discovered tidemills accidently in August 2018, beautiful place and ruin. You get a good feel of what use to be there and appreciate how different it was back then.
Thank you Mitesh for your positive comment, take care, Chris
Very good introduction to the old village, and even more forgotten seaplane base. I like the atmospheric touches, which bring the areas more to life.
No substitute for Kevin's tour and Peter's on-site talk, of course, but an excellent taster with lots of interesting snippets.
How beautiful this video is presented. Gives such a real sense of the past.
Thank you Rosanne, if you live here, it's the place to be, away from the maddening crowds.
Thank you so much for this Chris.
I have happy memories of exploring Tide Mills as a boy with Mum & Dad.
I remember a lovely old fig tree, which Dad and I used to plunder in season.
I have always wanted to know more, and your film has filled in the gaps.
I have also heard stories of the Canadians shelling the place, but with nothing to support it.
Thanks again. Bob.
Glad you enjoyed it Bob, Lot's more to tell, Halcyon times. take care.
Excellent... thank you. 🤗👍🏻

+Valerie Orchin Thanks Valerie
Fascinating film - I must go there and make my own little documentary - thanks for sharing.
Thanks Richard, good luck, may see you down there from a different POV.
Chris Conil Yes indeed. I used to make polished TV style videos but exploring the short form loser approach for TH-cam. I admire your production values. Like you I have been in the game a long time.
Many thanks Richard, good luck for the future.
An area i know well, it's great to see the images of how it used to look.

Very interesting!
Spooky Hammer Films like production, sound effects and all. Peter Cushing where are you?
Spent many a happy hour wading around with school pals in the ruins of Tide Mills in the late 50s early 60s.I was led to believe the Canadian military used it for target practice.
+Howard Burrell That's interesting Howard, do you have any photos of that time?
Many thanks for your comment

+Chris Conil Sadly no,all I have is a slide somewhere of the signal box at Newhaven Town from memory.
