I love your attention to detail. And the graphics bring the elements and history to life. Great stuff👍👍👍

I accidentally stumbled across the channel, and not only is the restoration of the basin 1st class , you wouldn't ever known it was in such a dilapidated state. I am from Wales so I don't know the area, But it's beautiful. The way you have tied the photography of the old and new shots is also remarkable. Just subbed 👍👍👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧🇬🇧

Terrific history, well done, takes me back to my work at BW in that area including part relining of the arm from the Peak Forest to the basin, fishing a 70 tonne crane out of the canal at the site of Tesco's bridge, first stage repairs to Foulridge river and its feeders including underground trek from the res to the junction in the feeders, happy days.

My Dad was born at Bugsworth, and was on board Sue Day's horse drawn boat for the second reopening ceremony, I was steering.

We spent 3 happy weeks there last year thanks to the failure of Lift bridge 24. My gratitude to all those who worked so hard to restore it

I see I'm not the first to be amazed by the quality of your videos awesome work 👍👍👍👍👍👍

I have great admiration for all the men women and even children who as volunteers over the last few decades have lovingly restored our waterways. I think we all owe them a great debt of gratitude for what they all achieved. I just wish the government could see how important our lovely canal system is to the majority of the people.

Great video I'm really enjoying 👍

Very very relaxing to watch ..thank you. ❤❤ all the best 👍

It so beautiful i love canal

What an absolutely brilliantly researched and presented video. Thank you very much for taking the time to edit and present this look at our local history. I remember playing around the lift in the 80's when it was abandoned, looking back now we used to play underneath the viaduct, which is where the weights used to hang. If we had realised then how much weight was in those counterbalance weights we may have thought twice about playing underneath them. 😳

Thoroughly enjoyed watching this upload, thanks for making it. Living in the area the lift was our playground in the 70's and during school holidays we would try and get as many rides up and down as possible off any boater that would let us onboard. thanks again, Regards Steve

Excellent; thank you very much.

Excellent work

Very informative and well put together. It is sadly obvious from your commentary that rebuilding some of the kilns to original working condition would be prohibitively expensive.

I am sure from childhood memories, that in the early 90s a mobile crane use to setup here and bungee jumping used to take place over the canal. Does anybody else remember this?

A wonderful historical record of Bugsworth for all to see for many years to come, thank you !

Thanks, very interesting history. I've worked in Furness Vale since 1998 and when in the office regularly run along the canal from there to Whaley or Bugsworth basins. Fascinating stuff and looking forwards to more info. Keep up the good work!

very enjoyable, so much was lost in the 60s and 70s, now all we have is a concrete world with no personality.

Well done great use of the AI in enhancing the photographs.

Really enjoy seeing so many folks enjoying the hobby. Here in the States, the heavy handed rules and cost to even get any required code repairs to any boilers has almost totally shut down the steam hobby. There's a few places that will still do that work, but at what cost? Any new make boilers can easily get into 6 figures, and even then there's a 3-5 years wait. A neighbor was quoted close to $79000. just to do a firebox and lower front tube plate! I know that it's a lot of work, but what are they getting paid per hour? If your in that business, one would expect that they have the tools and required skills to accomplish this work in a reasonable amount of hours!

Great video! Loved seeing all the steam power. Thanks from Canada.

This is without a doubt, one of the best, most informative and fascinating films, detailong our beautiful cities indiustrial legacy i have ever seen. Please, PLEASE share more of exactly this. 11/ 10 💖🙏💖
