Really enjoyed this. Wish it was closer for us to explore for our own channel.
Looking forward to more.
Thaaaaank you!!! Someday, if you can, go do a trip to Norfolk there are SO MANY crazy incredible places. Look up All Saints Church in Billocksby. It got struck by lightening in the 1700s. The crack is still there. Bananas!
Great video...Thank you...Have been a couple of times and loved it there...
Thank you so much Mark!! So appreciated. Me too. Never get tired of going there. Such a fabulous place. ☺️
I recognize the person in the blue jacket 💙 I Absolutely love this video !
Fantastic video, beautifully done! I love this place. It looks very magical, and with that tree right in the middle. You wonder how things were back then, when the church was the place of gathering for the community. What secrets, and tales have been buried there.
You really transported us, thank you!
Ahhh David thank you so much for this lovely message. I’m totally with you. I love imagining what the people were like in these amazing buildings. So glad you felt the mystery like I did!
So beautiful ❤️
Great presentation,Evelyn.
Thank you so much!! 💚☺️🙏🏻⛪️🏴
Another great one. Thanks for your scholarship, Your Majesty!
Aww shucks. Coming from you that means a lot. Thank you Sir William! 💚🙏🏻⛪️☺️🏴
@@EvelynEdwards Condensing and delivering history--it's an art!
@@williamcarpenter9457 oh man oh man! Little did I know when I jumped in to this venture!
Really enjoyed this one, fascinating! I will stick with the squirrel version though! 👍
Beautiful place
Isn’t it? I am in awe every time I go here. :)
Each episode is a mini escape
Ahhhh yay!! I love this! Thank you!! 💚☺️🙏🏻⛪️🏴
Lovely little video. Beautiful, haunting place.
Thank you so much! A truly incredible place. I always feel in awe when I go. 💚⛪️🙏🏻🏴☺️
Fantastic as always. From above you wouldn't know it was there :)
Thank you friend!!! Right?! To be honest you wouldn’t know it was there from the road even! I had to have someone take me there. I would have totally missed it!
@@EvelynEdwards Wow, even from the road! Great find :)
This was great
Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed!! 💚🙏🏻😁⛪️🏴
Amazing episode and church! Kudos to Chris and the drone work, especially the straight down views. I’ll be waiting for the nighttime episode! 😳
Hahahah! There are some photographers who won’t go here alone. I never get the creepy vibe from any of these places. I think my haunted button is broken. Chris will be VERY happy you liked his droney bits. ;)
I absolutely love your videos
Thank you so much!! 💚💚💚
Love this! Amazing to see the person standing next to it. It’s much bigger than I thought!
Both the tree and the church are actually quite large!!
Loved the mood ! I wish I could visit it at night now... I guess ghosts have a lot to tell !
THANK you Stefan! It is such a cool spot. People who have gone at night have lots of crazy stories. I’ve always gone during daylight. No 👻 for me thanks!
@@EvelynEdwards Thank you for taking time to answer ! Thank you for your videos. And happy new year !
@@stefangonzalevski9532 my absolute pleasure. Happy new year to you Stefan!!
Myths and legends, the world would be a dull place without them And the English excel on that score. The presence of so many ruins is a goldmine for stories of old. Just love them. Love castles, mansions, estates all dating back so far one can't count the years. Some of the frames if frozen make ideal painting subjects to adorn walls in galeries and homes. Lovely video. Thanks for the privilege of having this peek into another classic time. 🌷 🙏 🙋♀️
Ahhh! This comment warmed my heart so much! Thank you! We are kindred spirits! Love love love all these marvelous old spaces, the people who lived or worshipped in them, and their stories. This is a particularly special place to me. So glad you enjoyed! 💚🙏🏻☺️⛪️🏴
Your editing is certainly improving! 👍🏻
And love it, the place is sort of hauntingly beautiful.. that's why I love castles and old ruins
Ahhh thank you!! Learning learning ever learning. I’ll get good enough one of these days to let someone else do it!!! ;)
I’m an with you ! Ruins and castles all the way!!
Really enjoyed this one, fascinating! I will stick with the squirrel version! 👍
@@willbo2000 hahahahah! Good choice. Squirrels are much better than witches. ;) thank you so much Will!!
Couldn't see your breath...but that's OK. We're here for the awesome ridiculousness of this storytelling.
The only thing we can compare to it that we've seen is Mission San Juan Capistrano. Now, stick that place in a fairy tale in a hidden area 500 years beforehand, and you get these ruins.
Wow. That photo with the person inside shows how MASSIVE it was.
Love the San Juan Capistrano Mission! An amazing place! (I’m originally from California. ;) Thanks for watching!!
It is an amazing place, i lived in west Somerton just around the corner from the ruin. I used to visit on a regular basis and my imagination used to run riot 🙂
Awww amazing! Love love this area. The dunes. The sea lions... all of it! Thank you for watching Tania!
17 monarchs. Neato! Thank you Evelyn, for your evocative journey through the past, via St. Mary's skeleton.
Hahah! Yay!! Thank you so much for coming a long with me Beth!
really nice video
What a Magical Church ,...Thinks God's Still there 🦋
An amazing place!
Awesome video! The view of the archway and the tree growing up through it, looks just like the scene in Ever After. It such a beautiful place!
Outstanding! Sentimental, educational and humbling, this well spoken film brought my mind into a different century from my cozy Christmas home! I was so enthralled I almost burned the onions I had set to sweat!!
I’ll be dancing three turns around the Christmas tree in hopes of raising the spirit of St. Nichols... God Bless is... Everyone 😇🙏🏻
Ohhh Laurie!!! THANK you!! You’ve absolutely made my day. Thank you friend. That means so much!! 💚💚
Hahahh that’s a great idea!’ 3 times around the Christmas tree!! Love it!
I like Norfolk castle and I like the stock
Thank you so much Josh! Me too!! Not quite sure what you mean by stock... but I’ll take it! ;)
@@EvelynEdwards Cheers Evelyn great channel keep it up!
@@Josh-mon thank you!!!
I’ve watched all your videos, when will there be more?
Love your videos, informative and professional productions. Your passion for history is infectious.
Ahhh Dylan! You’ve made my day! Thank you so so much. So glad you enjoyed! 💚🙏🏻☺️⛪️🏴
Through your explanations the story comes alive, and how the tree could grow there, great video!
Thank you so much Isi!!! Thank you for
Coming over and watching!!
Absolutely breathtaking. Ruins to me just have some extra magic about them. Thank You so much for your amazing videos. They take me to my happy place. ❤
💚💚💚 I’m with you! Ruins are my absolute favorite!
I've been viewing more of the CZcams videos, especially when I miss a live (CC member) 🙂 Came across this one by accident. Love this ruin.
What a great Christmas present to watch. Bama love love loves to watch these. A bit better than exceptional I must say. Can't wait to see more! Merry Christmas to you and Chris. We love the Queen of the Castles Calendar. A perfect gift.
Thank you so much!! So glad you liked it! Merriest Christmas to all of the LaLondes!
Looks like a really interesting church. Theirs a kirk (Church of Scotland) in the village that I grew up in, which is built on the site of the chapel that served the village, before the Reformation. It is claimed, that the Gothic styled window at the back of the kirk, is the only surviving part of the original chapel.
Ohhh fantastic!! What part of Scotland do you live!? One of my favorite places on earth, Scotland. Have missed being able to go during lockdown. :(
@@EvelynEdwards I'm in Renfrewshire. I love exploring Scotland as well. There's few things in Paisley that are worth seeing. There's also a mural trail through the town, and an observatory.
Amazing! As soon as we’re allowed to go to Scotland again I’m in!
@@EvelynEdwards Fingers crossed this will be over, sooner, rather than later. I'm itching to be back out exploring again as well
Another GREAT! Spectacular footage, slow enough to really take in the Beauty of it all! Made me feel like I was there with you😁 And Always the right amount of interesting information, Love this Very much!!
Thank you so much Tiffany!! Ahh the balance of it all!! Thank you so so much for your kind words. Made my day! Happy holidays friend!! 💚🎄❄️🎅🏻⛪️🏴
Astonishing ! Thank you for sharing your passion for history and art with us 💝
ahhh my absolute pleasure! thank you so much and thank you for watching!
Thank you so much for allowing us to go on these journeys with you. LOVED IT!!!! And I was thrilled that it came in on an email and I didn't have to check in with CZcams to see if you had added another adventure. Appreciate these so much!!!
Thaaaaaank you Sheila!! I’m so tickled you liked it!! It just stopped me in my tracks completely the first time I saw it. So glad I could take you along by proxy! ;)
Well done. My favorite episode so far. Great history, background music and video. Glad you didn't walk around the witch's finger three times!! Thank you Evelyn.
Yaaaaayyy Jack!!! THANK you!!! I’m so glad you liked! No waking up witch spirits for me thank you! 2020 has been enough!! 😉 happy holidays friend!
Another good one. Very well filmed. Especially the camera move is excellent! I feel you put more historical facts in your stories?!
Thank you Frank!! We got a steady cam so as I when I walk around and take footage it looks smother. Thank you for noticing that!! 💚💚
I wonder what happened to the flooring and what it was?
This age of church would have been stone…maybe tile. 💚
COME ON, be bold and walk around it three times. Okay how about two and a half times, two maybe ???
You are so right! “I ain’t afraid of no ghost!!” 👻 😉😉
I’ve watched all your videos, when will there be more?
Amazing! Wow wow! I usually do one every few weeks. :)
