Looks like there's plenty of empty homes ? Ideal for when the dinghy invasion arrives !?

I didn't get a notification for this! It's not the only building that's commuted around the place, the Shakespeare pub on Fountain St started its life in Chester and was moved to Manchester brick by brick. From the woodcut of the Welly you showed, it looks as though a spectacle maker also had a workshop on the premises. It's a pity that it had to be moved because of safety issues after the bomb but it's still around and that's the important thing. ✌️

Good video, need to sort your sound out though

Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed the trip down your city very much.

This is an Aladins Cave, when I'm visiting I spend many minutes wondering through this shop. Stuff you would not find anywhere else.

🌽 corn?

Another fascinating, mini history video, on the first Leeds Corn Market, by the excellent Blue Harvest History Channel.

Excellent, love a bit of liquorice and those old sherbert/liquorice dip sticks.

beautiful building if it was cleaned up to it's former glory

Picture no7 Branch Road Batley was home to the Salvation Army between 1881 and 1983 when it moved to Bradford Road. You can just make out part of the Salvation Army on the stone over the entrance. I think the building you're talking about was down St James street on the right.

I think the days of small independently run local cinemas are well and truly behind us unless there's some kind of very specific global disaster that only destroys Cineplexes.

B.i.n.g.o. an bongo went the cinema hall💪🚬🤠

These tastes very bad

If you visit the piece hall take a look in the library. it's new in there and has been built around the spire which now comes out through a glass roof. And the a lovely rose window in there. It's clever how they have married new and original

13:15 the woods is said to be private property from what I’ve been told by the dirt bmx riders who built the track you saw entering the woods

Caddy's was the best. 1 shilling and thruppence for a gra pefruit pop with a scoop of icecream. Was a Saturday treat

Tried one once, disgusting. Almost as bad as sucking on a fisherman's friend.

How much sugar in each pie ?

I think you might find that these “empty” listed buildings are actually infested with sinister foreign types who are slowly but surely destroying what is left of our town.

Grew up in Dewsbury Caddy’s was lovely ice cream there was also Crossleys in Ravensthorpe who had an ice cream van that came round the streets and who remembers Cider Lolly’s

18:33 What was the word,please? Was it SAX ?

When did it finally close ?

Thanks for sharing your Monopoly Takeover adventure in Leeds, Marc. Fun, entertaining and informative! :)

Did I just saw the red huggy wuggy at 0:00

A Great video and research of what you have discovered,,, neat the end where the tires where dumped ,,, the holes have been left in to encourage Bats to search for shelter during the winter months ,,,, magnificent coverage 🤗👍

Shame …it wont be in london

We'll never see the likes of Woolies again, you could get almost anything from our local Woolies and it was only a small town branch. The toy section was very nearly as well stocked as a lot of actual toy shops, selling a variety of cheaper rack toys as well as the major manufacturers lines!

Great Otley Woolworths video, Marc. And what wonderful Woolworth anecdotes! :)

My home town too, what a mess it is now.

Nice 28 Years Later location update video, Marc. Thanks for sharing.

Dewsbury is a foreign country now, we simply do not care about the dump!

Great video thank you. Amazing how nature reclaims all evidence of our existence so quickly. www.railmaponline.com/UKIEMap.php can help rediscover this stuff, it reveals links to archives with photos and original maps including this photo clearly revealing the route of the Dewsbury tunnel www.lostrailwayswestyorkshire.co.uk/images/donations/Stephen%20Helm/Dewsbury/Old%20Dewsbury%20Aerial%20town%20Centre.jpg. I’m inspired now to get my bike out and revisit my birthplace, thanks again.

some real crackers there Blue , thank you :)

Another fascinating Haworth video from Marc, for the excellent Blue Harvest History Channel.

Hi Marc

A great " Monopoly Leeds Takeover " update video by Marc, for the excellent Blue Harvest History Channel.

Thanks for providing new audio, Marc. And thanks for sharing this fascinating mini video.

As a child growing up in a small rural town the 70s Hostess pies were really something super special! Just like moon pies or Hostess Twinkies....!

Morning Marc mate. This was a very interesting video to watch. Thanks for posting it and catch you later on your toy auction stream

Great Morecambe time lapse video, Marc.

lol Sorry mate but the market stalls on a Sunday haven't been £10 for donkeys years. it's a fair few years now since my missus and I did a car boot down there but it was £25 then and it's probably a lot more now. Last time my missus enquired at the office they said they were shutting it all down and renovating, so when they get round to that is anyones guess. Keep up the good work anyways... Oh yes before I forget. remember when you were looking at the furniture near the bottom of the market, well I doubt you'd remember but the first two stalls at the very bottom used to be fruit and veg and no other but Eddie Waring the sports commentator used to work there. back in the sixties.

A friend of mine, Kat's (not that one) just been to Scarborough for a working holiday, when I asked her what she'd got up to there outside working hours, she said "Nothing much, it'd been rained off"! 😂

Great Then and Now pictures of Scarborough, Marc.

Really enjoyed this compilation. Many thanks. ……

Nice video mate. Got my first work overalls from colin in 1966.

Do you remember in the sixties and seventies the Longcauseway was always full of folks having pic-nics..
