Old Hampstead Village is a charming village, straight out of the past. Autumn makes this even more obvious!!. The houses and pubs give an old-fashioned and romantic charm to this beautiful place. Dickens is not far away!! Ghosts must be common at night in the narrow streets. Beautiful ladies with hats and gloves and furs accompanied by gentlemen in coats and top hats must meet each other just by closing their eyes. The ginger cat in the cemetery could tell us some great stories if he wanted to!! The charm of cemeteries, even haunted, is wonderful. Thank you Friend WW for this beautiful visit to the past. 😀😀😀😀😀
Such a lovely walk, the houses are all soooo beautiful. How lucky are those who get to live in them. It seems like such a pleasant area with all those trees and the overgrown cemetery, such an atmospheric area. It was poignant to hear the children laughing and playing as you wandered past those headstones of inhabitants long gone from here. Thank you so much! 🙏🏻
It was interesting to see the grave of John Harrison. There are many well-known people buried in that particular cemetery. Including Peter Cook, Kay Kendall, Nicholas Parsons, Anton Walbrook , John Constable and Hugh Gaitskell to name just a few.
Hi great walk and at last you went through the gate in Holly Walk,so many walkers have past by with just a glance,such a revelation and I think it comes a close second to Highgate cemetery for atmosphere especially the childrens voices that can be heard in both,thanks so much it’s made my day.Mike.
Восторг,восхищение,незабываемые впечатления,как будто на машине времени перенеслась намного столетий назад,власти города и его жители очень любят свой город и его историю,если все так сохранено и ухоженно,они очень счастливы ,живя таком месте,это музей под открытым небом,благодарю за доставленное удовольствие,здоровья вам и процветания и всем людям,живущим здесь
I haven't been to this place since 1990. I went there to photograph the street scenes after seeing it used in an old episode of The Saint. There's a road called New End, where Roger Moore runs into Flask Walk.
Hi there, Thank you so much for doing this detailed walk around Hampstead village as you promised. Is there anywhere in London more beautiful, characterful and peaceful than Hampstead- I don’t think so. This was such a atmospheric walk, especially around the cemetery with the sounds of the children playing happily in the school playground nearby, but eerily not visible. There is still plenty of scope for some great walking videos in Hampstead. You could explore the many narrow alleys and passageways, also climb the many pretty steps. Hampstead just keeps on giving at each different time of year, at each different time of day, it never disappoints.
@johnorchin8567 It's my pleasure, thank you for the suggestion! It's such a beautiful area, I feel I will need to make a return visit to capture more of what it has to offer, are there any specific narrow alleys and passageways I should cover that I haven't yet?
Yes indeed. If you walk from the High street along Flask Walk beyond the pub, on your left is Lutton Terrace walk up there looking at some very early philanthropic housing, flats with open stairwells, continuing to Mansfield Place and Streatley Place. Walk up Heath Street on your right is charming Elm Row. Behind Christchurch is Christchurch Passage. On the other side of Heath Street there are two passageways linking up with Hampstead Grove. At the top end of Windmill Hill is Judges Walk going across to Branch Hill. Well Road and Well Walk are connected by Wells Passage near the Chalybeate fountain. So just to mention a few!!
WOW! Beautiful autumn/Halloween walk! You never disappoint, dear WW. I especially loved the cemetery, with the children's voices happily shouting and laughing in the background - a sharp contrast and shows the continuity of life; from birth to death, it's what awaits us all. Now I'm getting existential on you; sorry!! The weather there looks nice, but here in Chicago it's getting downright cold, with highs of only 40°F during the day, but at least it's sunny. Won't be so lucky on Halloween, tomorrow - it's supposed to be cold AND rainy. Oh well, it's getting into November where it usually bottoms out for a few weeks anyway. Looking forward to more of your walks as I sit cozily wrapped up in blankets with a mug of hot tea, coffee or chocolate!!❤
@micheleparker3780 Thanks so much, this was a lovely walk to film, I could imagine myself living in one of the beautiful houses there and going for a stroll to the shops. We have more rain coming here too, and I'm not looking forward to the colder weather, I think I'll join you with a nice hot chocolate!
@@watchedwalker Can you believe it actually SNOWED here in Chicago this morning?? On Halloween!! Even I can't believe it. Time for that hot chocolate ☕️🫖
Good to see Jon Moss drummer from Culture Club in the first few seconds of the video checking out an item in an antique shop then walking towards the camera 👍
Oh my word I didn’t want it to end I enjoyed every minute walking along beside you even in the cemetery so calm and tranquil with all those graves spanning many years of people’s passing. Many of the areas seemed quite Dickensian and could probably be used as movie locations …. So many lovely houses which no doubt are now flats …. nonetheless an interesting area with lots of alleyways and steps to upper streets…. Thank you once again
My great grandparents lived in Hampstead, in a house on Heathhurst Road. But this was before the gentrification of London when Hampstead would've been seen as an ordinary place to live. Now it's very up market but then it was just a village in greater London.
@@watchedwalker : What I meant was before the 1960s those lovely Georgian cottages may have looked old and shabby because people didn't value quaintness like we do now. My old family house on Heathurst Rd is worth about 2.5 million now! But in 1937 my grandad sold it for just one thousand pounds. What an amazing rise in value!
1937 Coca-Cola stock would be worth (splits included) around $30 million, maybe much more. Also, inflation has to be considered. $1000 pounds was a lot of money.
Thank you for such a visually pleasant non AI video with its setting sounds. The bricks and trees are one of my soothing combinations on planet earth plus the aura of the Shakespeare Company breathing somewhere around the corner. One day Iwill walk those beautiful peaceful roads listening to Waterfall by the Stone Roses. Cheers from proper Los Angeles.
Awesome I love this very much thankyou., Makes Inverness in Scotland look positively tiny. Make no mistake about it these were definitely church bells as you entered Christ Church Hill , Its a lovely calm day so the bells will echo into the distance. 🔔 💛 🔔
Hampstead always looks lovely. My gran taught me not to fear graveyards, they were places of giving thanks to loved ones and happier times with them. Thank you. Saw 2 WW logos.
Темный старинный кирпич и белые рамы окон на его фоне. Часто применяется активный цвет для конструкций зданий. Характерно для малой застройки в Англии. Достойно применения и у нас в новом малоэтажном строительстве.
Such a lovely place and a great walking pace and an interesting route that allowed us to see the detail. I thought I heard church bells near the beginning but now I wonder whether it was scaffolding😄. Could you please do a Sunday morning walk close to a lovely church with church bells? I miss hearing them.
I've never been to England and your videos are fascinating. But for this one the walk was nice, up until the cemetery/graveyard portion of the video. Just got depressing. 😔. I know it says graveyard in the title. But great work on the videos. And keep them coming.
@@watchedwalker this was all in auto? impressive. I make walking videos of my city (Delhi) with same cam but struggles with sign and shop boards from harsh light in evening and night time. Some parts of the videos are completely blown out. I usually watch all your videos to learn how to shoot in nighttime.
@@wild-dhillon It can be tricky with harsh lights, I have areas blown out too, but I just accept that as when I've tried filters the footage ended up with even more problems.
I was born in Hampstead,and lived there for twenty years. Not been back for over thirty,but it's nice to see that not too much has changed under the surface.
I would imagine that this area is a postman's nightmare? Some unusual road names too. I only saw two logos but maybe I got somewhat bored in the graveyard section and lost concentration - it was a little tedious I thought. On the other hand it captured a depressive sort of mood and the squirrels seemed happy enough there! 🥱 I wonder who has the gardening contract!
I don't think you gave any understanding as to how life is outside of your own country. (I'm suspecting America). Your comment about it being "boring" in the graveyard is entitled and rude.
My comment wasn't intended to be disrespectful at all - only truthful from my perspective. You can either agree or disagree as is your choice. I find neglected graveyards depressing. As for having no experience of life outside my own country, you are correct. I don't even own a passport. I'm not American btw. Nor do I engage in internet slanging matches with people I don't know. @@bieni78

Много восхищения , впечатляет . Хочется пройтись по улице , вдохнуть насыщенной атмосферой старинной Англии . Спасибо за чудесную страну и прогулку .
London narrow streets are fun for walk about. 🇬🇧🇺🇸👍
A beautiful London Village!
Hampstead keep the fresh elegance and charm that invites to live there!!! Impress Place!!!

Great video, I hope to return there someday
Spotted 2 Watched Walkers on white vans, and two cats 🐈🐈⬛
Thanks for lovely walk, hope you enjoyed it as much as I did!
@KatTheScribe Thanks, I did enjoy filming this walk, good job spotting the logos and cats, the ginger one in the graveyard startled me.

Thank you we enjoyed we love the town at the end
The sounds of children playing whilst in the cemetery was creepy as hell. Awesome.
You’re right!

I want to really walk down theses roads very interesting
That was Jon Moss in his wellies right at the start...formerly of Culture Club... and soon to be with me at Horticulture Club...
