Places to see in ( Thorpeness - UK )
Thorpeness is a village in the county of Suffolk, England. It is part of the parish of Aldringham cum Thorpe and is within the Suffolk Coast and Heaths AONB. The village was originally a small fishing hamlet in the late 19th century, with folklore stories of it being a route for smugglers into East Anglia. However in 1910, Glencairn Stuart Ogilvie, a Scottish barrister who had made his money designing railways around the world, bought the entire area from north of Aldeburgh to past Sizewell, up the coast and inland to Aldringham and Leiston.
Most of this land was used for farming but Ogilvie developed Thorpeness into a private fantasy holiday village, to which he invited his friends' and colleagues' families during the summer months. A country club with tennis courts, a swimming pool, a golf course and clubhouse, and many holiday homes, were built in Jacobean and Tudor Revival styles. Thorpeness railway station, provided by the Great Eastern Railway to serve what was expected to be an expanding resort, was opened a few days before the outbreak of World War I. It was little used, except by golfers, and closed in 1966.
A notable feature of the village is a set of almshouses built in the 1920s to the design of W.G. Wilson. To hide the eyesore of having a water tower in the village, the tank was clad in wood to make it look like a small house on top of a 5-storey tower, with a separate water-pumping windmill next to it. It is known as the House in the Clouds, and after mains water was installed in the village the old tank was transformed into a huge games room with views over the land from Aldeburgh to Sizewell.
For three generations Thorpeness remained mostly in the private ownership of the Ogilvie family, with houses only being sold from the estate to friends as holiday homes. In 1972, Alexander Stuart Ogilvie, Glencairn Stuart Ogilvie's grandson, died on the Thorpeness Golf Course and many of the houses and the golf course and country club were sold to pay death duties.
Thorpeness is a quiet village of about 400 people in the winter, swelling to over 1,600 people in the summer holidays, with the highlight being a regatta on the Meare at the end of August and a huge fireworks display. It is also a popular day trippers destination with its beach and Meare, amenities and sights such as the House in the Clouds.
The Ogilvies still have a strong presence in the village and many of the families coming there for their holidays have been doing so for generations. Also many of the families of the craftsmen who helped build the village are still there. Thorpeness was listed as the 'Weirdest Village in England' by 'Bizarre' magazine in 2003.

Places to see in ( Tattershall - UK )
Tattershall is a village and civil parish in the East Lindsey district of Lincolnshire, England. Tattershall is situated on the A153 Horncastle to Sleaford road, 1 mile east from the point where that road crosses the River Witham.
At its eastern end, Tattershall adjoins the village of Coningsby, with the two being separated by the River Bain. In the same parish is the hamlet of Tattershall Thorpe. Local public houses are the Black Horse on the High Street and the Fortescue Arms in the Market Place. The Fortesque Arms dates from the 15th century and is a Grade II listed building. Barnes Wallis Academy (built 1954) is a secondary modern school on Butts Lane for pupils aged from 11 to 16. The school also serves Coningsby and Woodhall Spa.
The remaining wreckage of the Boeing jumbo jet that was blown-up on 21 December 1988 over Lockerbie in Scotland is stored at a scrapyard near Tattershall. The remains include the plane's nose and cockpit. Tattershall Carrs forms the last remaining remnants of ancient wet woodland, dominated by alder that once ringed the margins of the Fens.
Village historic sites include the church of the Holy Trinity, a buttercross, Tattershall Castle, Collegiate College, and Tom Thumb's house and grave. Tattershall Castle was built in 1434 by Ralph de Cromwell, 3rd Baron Cromwell - Henry VI's Lord High Treasurer - on the site of an earlier 13th-century stone castle, of which some remains are extant, particularly the Grand Tower and moat.
An octagonal 15th-century buttercross stands in the Market Place. It is both a Grade I listed structure and an ancient scheduled monument. A charter to hold a weekly market was granted by King John in 1201 in return for an annual fee of a trained goshawk.
Tattershall railway station was a station on the line between Boston and Lincoln until closure. The Old Station House, a stationmasters house and ticket office, is a Grade II listed building. Adjacent to the castle is the Grade I listed Perpendicular-style Holy Trinity Collegiate Church, endowed by Ralph de Cromwell, 3rd Baron Cromwell, but built after his death.
Adjacent to the Market Place are the remains of Tattershall College which was built by Lord Cromwell for the education of the choristers of Holy Trinity Church. The College was an example of perpendicular style of Gothic architecture. In the late 18th century it was converted to a brewery, and later left empty – today it is a ruin. The walls that remain are supported by modern brick. Heritage Lincolnshire currently manages the site, which is Grade II* listed, and an ancient scheduled monument.

Places to see in ( Gerrards Cross - UK )
Places to see in ( Gerrards Cross - UK )
Gerrards Cross is a town and civil parish in the South Bucks district of Buckinghamshire, England. It is in the south of the county, separated from the London Borough of Hillingdon at Harefield by Denham. London is centred 19 miles east. Geographically large and suburban, Gerrards Cross is south of Chalfont St Peter and north of Fulmer and Hedgerley. It spans foothills of the Chiltern Hills and land on the right bank of the River Misbourne — it has a central public park, Gerrards Cross Common and Bulstrode Park Camp, a preserved area of land which was an Iron Age fortified encampment.
The town has a railway station on the Chiltern main line whose operator provides a fast service from the station to London and the M40 motorway is beside woodland on the southern boundary of the civil parish and the settlement has a commercial and leisure central area which is smaller than the nearby town of Beaconsfield.
The town name is new compared with the great bulk of English towns. Gerrards Cross did not exist in any formal sense until 1859 when it was formed by taking pieces out of the five parishes of Chalfont St Peter, Fulmer, Iver, Langley Marish and Upton to form a new ecclesiastical parish. It is named after the Gerrard family who in the early 17th century owned a manor here. At that time homes which were not farms were smallholdings clustered in a hamlet in the south of an elongated parish of Chalfont St Peter. Near its centre is site of an Iron Age minor hillfort, Bulstrode Park Camp, which is a scheduled ancient monument Originally named Jarrett's Cross before the times of the Gerrard family, after a highwayman.
The large and distinctive parish church is dedicated to St. James. It was built in 1861 as a memorial to Colonel George Alexander Reid[citation needed] who was MP for Windsor and designed by Sir William Tite in yellow brick with a Byzantine style dome, Chinese looking turrets and an Italianate Campanile. In 1969 the singer Lulu married Maurice Gibb of the Bee Gees in the church. The actress Margaret Rutherford is buried with her husband Stringer Davis in the St James Church graveyard. The town has its own library, various restaurants and its own cinema, the Everyman Gerrards Cross.
Independent schools include Maltman's Green School (all girls), St Mary's, Gayhurst and Thorpe House. Students of secondary school age attend either one of the local grammar schools, such as Dr Challoner's Grammar School (Boys), Dr Challoner's High School (Girls), The Royal Grammar School, High Wycombe (Boys), John Hampden Grammar School (Boys), and Beaconsfield High School (Girls) Chesham Grammar School (Co-ed), or the local Upper School, Chalfonts Community College, which is the catchment school.
On the south side of the town is the Gerrards Cross Memorial Building, on the site of the former vicarage. The building was designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens and unveiled in 1922 to commemorate the town's losses during the First World War. It is the only example of a Lutyens war memorial designed with a functional purpose.
Just outside Gerrards Cross, on the A40 to Beaconsfield, is Wapseys Wood landfill site, one of the largest landfill sites in the UK, operated by Veolia Landfill Ltd. It accepts up to 900,000 tonnes of non hazardous waste each year from south Buckinghamshire, London and other areas. The landfill gas produced from the waste yields over 10 megawatts of electricity which is fed into the power grid.

This walk starts at Thorpe Bay on the Thames Estuary in Essex and heads out to Shoeburyness at where the River Thames meets the North Sea. Much of the land at the end of the estuary around Shoeburyness has been owned by the military since the 1840's and is still owned by the Ministry of Defence as an active firing range. The Broomway leads from the Wakering Stairs across Maplin Sands and is regarded as the deadliest path in Britain claiming over a hundred victims over time with many more being unrecorded.

WENTWORTH: Rotherham Parish #29 of 31
Normally content wise, I have a pretty good idea of what I want to include in every video before i even visit the parish in question. Even though I have said before I go to them all with little to no information, I do still know a few landmarks that I want to capture in most cases. For today's parish though, that was a little difficult to do.
Not through a lack of things there, but rather through there being far too many for me to pick from! I can almost guarantee that I will have missed something big out from this one, because there is far too much here to squeeze into a video, or at least a video under 30 minutes long, which is what I aim for.
So what is here? Well, the biggest landmark is a massive mansion, set in 87 acres of beautiful parkland, and that's parkland which is open to the public, so expect to see plenty of those things in this video. There are two churches, one old and one new, but both bearing the same name. There's also two pubs, one of which is hotel as well, and don't even get me started on the village's garden centre and family farm. There are tourists aplenty in this place and for good reasons.
The abandoned Lady Mabel College is an interesting feature too, as is the small manufacturing hamlet which still has a fully operational blacksmiths. The Village Shop, the unique Post Office and Wingham Wool Works are all to see as well and we haven't even left the MAIN village...there are two others in this parish too, including one with a notorious stretch of road. The fact this video is less than that 30 minute threshold is a minor miracle. I hope you enjoy watching this one as much as I did making it.
This is the village that the borough of Rotherham likes to show off more than any other. Welcome to WENTWORTH.

A Visitor's Guide to Wharfedale, Yorkshire
The film follows the infant Wharfe from its head on Langstrothdale. Further along it then turns to enter the dale (valley) properly near Hubberholme / Buckden. The full commentary shows what you are looking at, as well as the history and things to see. It follows the dale down to Kettlewell, Grassington and ends at Bolton Abbey - and looks at everything inbetween! Filmed over many years and involving numerous organisations, it gives a full insight into what many consider their favourite dale in the National Park.

THORP ARCH: Leeds Parish #18 of 38
So today there’s a village to walk around, but first we’ve got to get there, starting from where we left off last week. That means our first landmarks are not within the village. First up is HMP Wealstun Prison formed by an amalgamation two prisons built in 1965. The amalgamation took place in 1995 and it was an historic development for the Prison Service
The resulting prison had a category C closed side and category D open side within one establishment. Further building development has taken place at the prison in recent years. It’s now a category C prison fully, and opened as such in 2010 after building work was completed on the former category D part of the prison. Wikipedia lists one notable inmate – Owen Oyston
The village is on the north bank of the River Wharfe which separates it from Boston Spa to the south. This will be the very first time we’ve encountered the River Wharfe on the channel. The Wharfe is 65 miles long making it the 21st longest river in Britain. It is a public navigation from Tadcaster to its junction with the Ouse near Cawood and its tidal from Ulleskelf to the Ouse.
The village is quite small in comparison to the area that the parish boundaries cover. It has relatively few amenities but it does have a primary school and public house. The first written record of the village was in the Domesday book when it consisted of three farms, a church and a mill. It was recorded as “Torp”.
After the Norman conquest, the village became part of the lands which passed to Osbern of Arques and as a result became known as Thorp D'Archis and this eventually became THORP ARCH.

HAYTON: East Riding of Yorkshire Parish #80 of 172
EAST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE PARSIH #80: HAYTON
Hayton is situated approximately 2 miles away from Pocklington and 4 and half miles northwest of Market Weighton in the East Riding of Yorkshire
The village is just off the A1079 – the former Roman road from Brough to York, at the foot of the East Yorkshire Wolds escarpment.
Hayton was once an outlying estate or berewick of Pocklington. It’s one of two villages in the parish – the other being Burnby.
There’s also a small hamlet with a Roman connection - Thorpe le Street. Although the civil parish’s name is officially Hayton its parish council is styled Hayton and Burnby Parish Council.
In 1935 Burnby and Thorpe le Street parish was abolished and merged with Hayton. This is another one which has very sparse information about it out there, for both Burnby and Hayton.
That said, I think I’ve found some good bits. There are two churches – one in each village, there’s an equestrian centre, a shop and a petrol station, and a popular pub, hotel and restaurant
Hayton’s best feature though would undoubtedly be its countryside. You’re surrounded here by beautiful rolling hills to the East and by a flat open valley to the West. Its not to be sniffed at,
Let’s get walking once again here in the East Riding!

BISHOPTHORPE: York Parish #20 of 31
YORK PARISH #20: BISHOPTHORPE
I hope you like your history. This one’s got way more than its fair share. This is Bishopthorpe, a very historic village located three miles to the south of York city centre, close to the A64. Close to the River Ouse, a large chunk of the village is a conservation area, as has been since 1989. When you see some of the landmarks here, you kind of understand why!
Historically part of the West Riding of Yorkshire until 1974, Bishopthorpe is another York parish which has seen time as part of Selby, until being transferred to York in 1996. It was mentioned in the Domesday Book as “Torp” and came to be known as “Thorp-super-Usam” or “Thorpe-on-Ouse” in 1194. By 1275 the earliest written record of the name Bishopthorpe appeared, spelt Biscupthorpe.
In 1202, the first church was built here and it was dedicated to St Andrew. This led to the village being renamed to St Andrewthorpe, but in the 13th century, it was renamed again when Archbishop Walter de Grey bought the manor house and gave it to the Dean and Chapter of York Minster. The house would become Bishopthorpe Palace, the official residence of the Archbishop of York.
In 1323, Bishopthorpe also the meeting place of a great council which agreed a truce between Edward II and Robert the Bruce, whose forces had been harrying Yorkshire following the Battle of Bannockburn. Just your average village then, right?
Let’s dive in!

Bucklers Hard, Historic Maritime Museum & Village, Beaulieu, Hampshire, England ( 5 )
Bucklers Hard is a hamlet situated on the banks of the Beaulieu River in the English county of Hampshire. With its Georgian cottages running down to the river, Bucklers Hard is part of the 9,000 acres ( 36 km2 ) Beaulieu Estate. The hamlet is located some 21⁄2 miles ( 4.0 km ) south of the village of Beaulieu. The hamlet, originally called Montagu Town, was built by the second Duke of Montagu, and was intended to be a free port for trade with the West Indies.
Bucklers Hard was the birthplace of many British naval vessels, including many of Admiral Nelson's fleet, using the timber of the New Forest. The Hard, under the control of Master shipbuilder Henry Adams was responsible for building many famous ships during the late 18th century and early 19th centuries. These included HMS Euryalus, HMS Swiftsure and HMS Agamemnon, all of which fought at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. The industry declined in the nineteenth-century and today the hamlet is given over to tourism, with a small maritime museum, and a modern yachting marina. During World War II, the village was used to build motor torpedo boats and the river was a base for hundreds of landing craft for the Normandy invasion, Operation Overlord. Bucklers Hard was where Sir Francis Chichester began and finished his single-handed voyage around the world in Gipsy Moth IV.
Discover the fascinating story of Montagu Town as it was originally known. Founded as a free port for the trading of sugar from the West Indies, the newly re-designed Maritime Museum tells why the ambitious plans for a new town were never realised and why its name changed to Buckler's Hard. Learn about the machine gun that fired round and square bullets and see characters from the village at the time of Henry Adams, the Master Shipbuilder who lived and worked at Buckler's Hard. Buckler's Hard developed as a thriving shipbuilding village where warships for Nelson's Navy were built, three of which took part in the Battle of Trafalgar. See models of these ships including HMS Euryalus on which the dispatch was written containing the news of the great victory and of Nelson's death. View Nelson memorabilia including his baby clothes, made for him by the citizens of his birthplace, Burnham Thorpe, in Norfolk.
In more recent times, the village played a significant role in the D-Day landings. Learn about the activity on the river during the years of WWII, the building of segments of the Mulberry Harbour, which were towed across to the Normandy coast in preparation for D-Day, and the many hundreds of landing craft that sailed from the Beaulieu River to support the Normandy landings. A film presentation tells the story of Buckler's Hard at war.
