What lovely background music today for our look around Leominster. It made it doubly enjoyable. I think I've seriously underrated Leominster in the past. It has a wonderful vriety of lovely architecture. I shall sing its praises in future. Thank you for giving us such a great armchair tour! 👍
Great to hear you liked the music, and the armchair tour, and what a bonus, that we've raised your opinion of Leominster. Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
Loved this. It is amazing to touch history and see things built early 12 hundreds
It was amazing to be there and it's great to know that you enjoyed the trip. Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
I lived in Leominster Mass. years ago.
It would be great to travel America visiting all the places with the same names as we've been to here in the UK. Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
I love all of the history that you have around you. Thousands of years worth of footprints to walk in! It must be very exhilarating and humbling at the same time. Thank you for bringing us with you. 🥰
Yes Andrea, we are so blessed to be surrounded by so much beauty and so much history. And you're right it is as humbling as it is inspiring... Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
This was a beautiful place the Church was so quiet and the history amazing! I love seeing old buildings and how they restore them. The architecture was stunning the builders had to be very pleased with their attention to detail. How awesome it is to realize the building is 1000 years old. Wonderful video thanks ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜
It was a beautiful place Susan and we're so glad you enjoyed seeing it and hearing the history. Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
I love Leominster ❤️
Since I live in New England we have so many places with the same names as in the UK. Guess the Puritains and immigrants weren't very original. Lol. Beautiful town, architecture and market. Very reasonable prices in the market too. Thanks so much Phil and Caroline ❤
We've noticed that there are a lot of places over there named after places over here Annette, perhaps they were a bit homesick. Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
I want a welsh cake now! LOL I was eating dinner when I watched this and now i need some dessert! MMM! I enjoyed seeing the church. The carvings are lovely and all the different lions you showed us were pretty cool. The parade puppet lion was very neat. It would be fun to see that turned alive in a show!
That was an impressive Lion, Laura, as was the architecture. You should make yourself some Welsh cakes. 😎🙂🐼
I lived in Leominster from 1977 to 1980 and I don't remember most of it (being a teenager - you don't really take notes). I would love to go back and see it again coz it looks rather nice :)
❤ I said yes at the same time as Phil lol. Mankey would have definitely wanted you to ring the bell!
Don't encourage her Angela, 🔕 Caroline is so easily tempted when there's a 🔔 bell rope hanging around. 😄😂 Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
Another beautiful town of great architecture and scenery, take care and thanks for taking us along with you 👏🙏❤️
Glad you enjoyed it Chris, and it's always great to know that your with us on our adventures. Take care 🤠😎🐼
My Mum is from Leominster. My Mum and Dad were married at the Priory in 1968. I spent a lot of time there when I was growing up.
My dad’s mum is from there too! Although my granny moved away … she and my dad with us in tow used to visit often . I have a very soft spot for Leominster as my heritage comes from there !
Wow, such a pretty place. Those lovely little Lanes, the black and white historic buildings - It almost looks like a story book village. And that church is just gooorgeous. I could definitely live in that town. Fabulous history. Love it xx Teresa ❤🇦🇺
We loved Leominster too Teresa, so much history and such gorgeous buildings. Thanks for the lovely comment 🤠😎🐼
Lovely town!! The church was beautiful and being a Leo, I loved the lions! 🙂
That's great Joni 🐆 Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
That last building is really magnificent. I would enjoy the market you visited, thanks for taking me there 😀
Glad you liked the market Lynda, and that awesome carved building at the end. It's always a pleasure when you come with us. Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
Its lovely to see fruit and vegetables being sold in a proper market, and an authentic butchers,like britain before corporate supermarkets.
Those buidings are lovely, bow fronted windows, and timbered gables.
If I can make a suggestion, if you like original buildings, I can recommend Norwich.
It maybe a bit further than you normally would venture, but its well worth it, Norwich is a much overlooked place.👍
It was a lovely little market Paul. Thanks for the Norwich suggestion, we'll keep that in mind for when we get the chance to take our caravan for longer and further afield. Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
Gutted I missed you visit my home town. I love a mooch around those antique shops too.
You have a lovely hometown and we can understand why you love a mooch around all those lovely antique shops. Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
Yes , Jane was very nice . Something to think about, is asking some of the locals a few questions in each area you two visit. Your not shy. Just a thought . Enjoyed ! 😊
Thanks for the idea Myrtha, and as always thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
My family is from Leominster, Massachusetts. I live in Florida. I was curious about your Leominster. Never been to England, I am desperate to visit 💗
Excellent, I Went to school there.
What a small world it is! We loved our visit to the town, thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
Well, this is a lovely town however it is spelt. Lovely video thankyou.
Glad you enjoyed it Sarah 🤠😎🐼
my father's side of the family is from there. they left for America in 1640's.
Wow, that's great. It's a beautiful place... Thanks for watching 🤠🙂🐼
Such a beautiful place! love the architecture! I would love to paint some of the shops and street in a painting! Some of the buildings seem to be like those in Holland!
It would be a great place to draw or paint Debra. So many of the buildings in the UK are influenced by architecture from across Europe. Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
I am a stone mason's daughter and I have a great love and respect for stone works and architecture! @@LetsgowithTheJohnsons
If you ever find yourself in Somerset the village of Mark has amazing lions outside it's church. In the light of the setting sun they look almost like they are real lions somehow magically made still but could move at any minute.
Just checked out the lions on Google and they look very impressive, we really must pay them a visit the next time we're in Somerset. Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
@@LetsgowithTheJohnsons There is some story about them being made by a French stonemason I think but cannot remember it.
Thankyou for visiting my hometown I was married in the church 45 years ago and may my granddaughter got married down bridge Street there is mile stone actually spelt lemster❤
That's a great hometown and a wonderful place for a wedding. Thanks for watching 🤠😎🐼
My dad’s mum comes from Leominster, she moved away but a lot of her family stayed ! My great uncle owned the chip shop there !
Where is the famous ducking stool that used to be in the Priory?
There had to have been a lot of work moving that builing to various places. You would think it would be easier to start from scratch. Is it that they wanted that exact building or were the previous places being used where the building was no longer wanted?
That's a great question... I think in many cases it was a cost issue, as the labour to dismantle and rebuild 300 years ago was very cheap, whereas the craftsmanship & materials to create the frame would have been much higher. And in the case of this house, there may well have been the need to relocate during the development of the town, and the carvings and association with the kings carpenter, made it impossible to replace. 🤠😎🐼
weebly or wobbly 🤣 its pronounced 'web-lee' ! great vid
😄😂 Glad you enjoyed the video 🤠🙂🐼
