Wow wow wow what a fantastic video. Love the blue plaques, the buildings in fact everything more like this please so keep on walking 🚶🏻♂️👍👍
Thank you, I will!
❤❤ Ludlow one of my FAVOURITE Places to visit 😊
Same!
Love Ludlow. Have stayed there over 30 times. One of my favourite places in the UK.
This video introduced me to Ludlow. Thank you. Have watched it many times this past year and will be visiting Ludlow from Texas in September
Amazing!
You will love it there
Ludlow stunning bet some of those buildings could tell a tale, Thankyou 👍
Beautiful place Ludlow ❤❤❤❤
Agreed!
Wow, I'dve never thought of ever visiting here. I think this definitely warrants a Christmas visit in future!
I worked at the Feathers in the mid 1950's for almost 6 months. I was told it was one of the remaining Inns that Henry VIII had sanctioned. That an Inn could not turn away anyone, they had to give the at least bread and water. It sounds very different now. I remember a small town with weekly cattle auctions downtown, 42 pubs and during the second World War surrounded on one side by an American camp and on the other a German prisoner of war camp. I hope the inside is still incredible with carved ceiling in the dining room. There was a lady who did nothing but cleaned all the brass and copper, it took her all week, and then she started again, next week. The people came from all over the UK, Europe and USA. THE Christmas Holidays were fantastic.
Morning. Great to see my home town Ludlow on Gimbal Walk. I'm very happy living here. 👍👍❤️❤️
I love it there! Will be back soon for a more in-depth video
@@GimbalWalkTV Looking forward to it 😊
My late parents lived in Ludlow in the early 1980's and had a business in the Buttercross doing clock, watch and scientific instrument repairs. The Church Inn was my local when I visited. A great pub way back then!
I made a comment about the houses in Chester and you said "Just wait til you see Ludlow." You were right. Truly amazing.
Love those blue plaques. There are more here than any English town I've been in. I remember seeing quite a few in Ripon, but not this many. They really tell the story, and in a historic town, that's what people want to see.
I noticed in that cheese shop there was a Yorkshire cheese from Thirsk - the home of James Herriot.
Loved the Feathers! Thanks for a great walk. Oh- I don't know what the sport car at the end was - maybe a McLaren?
What a beautiful town love all the old buildings another one on my list to visit can't wait to look around the castle thanks Neil
The castle is interesting with a great history but is pretty derelict. For a more intimate experience in the same area try Stokesay Castle (a fortified mansion house) outside the enticingly named town of Craven Arms just up the road from Ludlow. 😊
Love Ludlow visited last year it is a step back in time. Hope to return!
Ludlow is lovely for a day out, besides it’s historical features it also has some very nice shops and cafes. It’s also been used for TV programmes.
Wow beautiful place👍
It really is!
Another great & fantastic & interesting of LUDLOW!.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks again!
Thank you for all you're great walking video's. You bring these places to our living rooms/tablets , making you feel like you're actually there! . I stayed in Ludlow only a couple of years ago , what an amazing place it is , steeped in history.
The feather's hotel is very haunted!
And I stayed in the Church in, in which you also showed !!
Got a picture taken with my dog on the castle ramparts about 35 years ago. Lovely place.
Another smashing video!!! We’ve stayed in Ludlow years ago and really loved it.
It’s definitely on a par with Chester. Thanks again for the video xxx
Fascinating tour of this stunningly beautiful, historical place! I watched in anticipation of a visit here this weekend an I am now even more excited! I am from Worcestershire and would recommend a trip to Worcester. There's the cathedral, the River Severn and crammed full of stunning architecture and quirky side streets. Also loved your Whitby videos, they really gave us a great insight before we went on holiday there over the summer. Such a great channel!
You need too do a walk of Tewkesbury , some really interesting historic things there .
When I saw the "Ludlow" video on your list I am ashamed to say I had not heard of it, nor did I know where it was 😏
I thought 'oh, he was in Scotland recently so it must be up there' - how wrong I was !! And what an incredible town, I just loved it !! If I manage to get out and about this Spring/Summer I shall defo go there for a day or so, it's just fabulous, and I loved all the coaching inns, but had to laugh when I saw "Old Street" cos I thought "well, they are ALL old" 😁😏🤔😀
Many thanks for the trip Mr Walk, keep em coming 💟😍✔
Sports car at the end looked like a Lotus Evija, the classic car near the start was a very early example of a Morris Minor with a split screen and chrome flick out indicators located on the door pillar
I was expecting a good one but this turned out to be a stunner ! Great film work . Please keep it up .
Thanks, will do!
Morris Minor, and a beauty!
This is such a beautiful place. I would love to visit here someday soon. Thank you so much for these videos. You are very much appreciated!
Another one of my haunts 🤣 love Ludlow it’s a quaint little town I took my driving test there years ago as it was and still is one way 🤣 till the next one 😊
Wow what an amazing town....would have to spend a few weeks there to take it all in...thanks for filming this one!!
You’re welcome!
What a beautiful place!!
We agree!
Gorgeous place❤
Amazing i was there i never will forget Ludlow
I went to this lovely town recently. Saw an otter in the River Teme! Amazing sight!
My home town, miss it so much as moved as a teen to the Lake District … was lovely walking with you as when living there you forget the history
Mr Gimbal you surely struck gold with Ludlow! I'm a sucker for those white and black beamed houses -every time! What a lovely place!
Love Ludlow quite a while since we were there
Lovely isn't it Jean! I was lucky with the weather for this one!
what a wonderful history packed place, great video mate.
Many thanks!
Amazing place lovely buildings.. The feathers Hotel was on Britain's most haunted boo. Love Reading the blue plaques thanks for great vid...
My home town, you should have gone straight on and through the town gate, you'd have come to the medieval bridge, come back in the spring and watch the salmon jumping the 900 year old weir.
Definitely! Can't wait to return it really is a special place to me now!
Yes , looked at a visit and stay a few times. This as confirmed I need to do that trip.
We spent new year in Ludlow, and seen in 2023 in the Church. It was raining, so no fireworks. The nearby bells rang instead. I was thinking about going round the Castle, but didn’t fancy paying the entrance fee. On New Year’s Day, we did a ramble round the surrounding countryside
Another added to the bucket list! 👍 Have you been to Leyburn in North Yorks? Might be worth a look my friend 👀
Never been to ludlow i have now!
Thanks
Absolutely fascinating
Going to watch again!
Ah thank you Julie!
Hope you are safe and well!
Yes I would definetly enjoy a day out in Ludlow.👍
It's a fab place - really lovely!
Your video always encourage me to learn English! I wanna go there by myself.
You should!
Love too see what equipment you are using as the vids are such good quality.
Your filming is absolutely on the ball from Scarborough Pickering Ripon Manchester your nailing it pal love your vlogs so professional I'm sure these posts will show future generations how life was in 2022
Thank you so much ❤️
Saved me another plane ticket !! Thanks !! Great Video 👍
Any time!
You were able to climb the tower of the church . Great views.
Yeh was fun!
Hey Neil wow wow wow that was a awsome walk and vlog mate that one love it great old buildings lovely shops mine sort of thing too do thanku 💯😊
Thanks mate! Hope you're having a top weekend!
Hey Neil yes it was good mate thanku I look forward too your next vlogs
My, how I loved thar car, lovely colour, been lovingly restored, my first guess would be a Morris Minor, but I have never seen one with a split screen like that one has before. Thanks for lingering on it a moment or two. Classic cars are a fave of mine - only wish I could afford to buy and upkeep one (or three !! 😁)
Oh yes! Lovely car!
Think it's an 850cc split windscreen Moggy!
A place I should visit has well as Leomster and Ledbury great vidieo
i was watching Drew Prichards antique site & he was at Ludlow, & i thought has Neil done a walk around this amazing place & Hey Presto here you are !!! i have never seen so many wonderful buildings .
Am going to go back I enjoyed this place so much
Been there a few times, and always found something interesting, there is a lot on the edges of town.
So true
I really like it there
Lovely, interesting video of Ludlow. The parts without the background musice were more enjoyable. Thank you.
We have similar thinking John! I intensely dislike it when some arty type decides to drown out the natural sounds with Muzak! If the general audience thinks that it would sound better with an overlay of Mozart or Megadeath they can add it via headphones. Those who beg to differ have no recourse when some Wally has already blighted it! 😱🙄
You promised us a full tour of Ludlow Castle. I'd love to see that.
Heya
It’s on my channel
@@GimbalWalkTV Thanks. I'll try and find it.
Nope, we can't find it ☹️
Stayed there at Carlton Arms for 3 days in Summer 2018. Was holiday and business trip in one. Visited the agricultural company McConnel and the royal welsh show😊
You asked about the buildings are haunted. Yes they are I can tell 😊
Really fab , enjoyed alot . But you didn't show us the local parish church i just saw the steeple , so thats an excuse for the hubby to take me ,, 😉👍 loving your videos thanks alot
There was a road in old Delhi called Ludlow castle road. The import of such name indicates an high official during colonial time must have posted there. Very interesting historical town, a must see place.
I visit here quite often it’s a lovely town, just the down side it’s out of the way xx but it’s quiet x
My mum was doing her stall on the market that day😂😂
Ahhh hope she waved!
A question for you...why are the trees pruned so drastically? I notice them trimmed like this in many English towns and villages and wonder what the reason is. Loved this tour! Gorgeous town! Where to film next? Rye???!!! 😊
It's called pollarding. Done all over Europe - Google it for a full run down. A beautiful little town this. Nice to have these videos to bring back memories of a week spent there during a summer vacation in Europe many years ago. I was hoping to see the descendants of the squirrels from back then still eating the flowers off of the graves behind the church. 😉
Is there a river nearby. Greatly enjoyed this. Thank you. Connie. Brighton. Sussex 😊
Thanks so much - yes I think there is
💘💘💘💘💘💘💘
❤️
A British treasure, Long may it stand !
Amen to that
Okay, you convinced me. I need to go back and see more of Scotland, It's just gorgeous! I want to visit the castle. I would love to go through all the nooks and crannies, so many. Yes, on my bucket list for sure! :)
Shropshire , not Scotland .Says so on the intro .
@@gazzertrn sorry this American didn't know he had left Scotland. Me bad :(
@@dehewitt341 You no bad .
@@gazzertrn :)
If you ever see “half-timbered” architecture, it’s not Scotland, as they do not have any there. This is an English town like the other person mentioned.
My own town, interesting to watch; it should be remarked that the camera distorts distances, making streets and other spaces seem much wider than they actually are. A good tour though.
Thank you
just a few words......you can have lunch at the feathers upstairs..and as you walk the floorboards creak.......im so sorry you did not continue down broad st...because you come to an arch.which in fact is a town gate..just like beverley.....has.....advice try leominster which is in same area.....
The sports car was a Noble M600.
Please can you recall the music for this and your 1st Staithes visit 😊
Hi there,
I can recommend an app for your phone (it's totally free) called Shazam
Just open the app, press the button as you're watching any tv show, film or youtube video and it will tell you what music it is and who sings it etc!
Have you done Hereford?
The car in the alley is a Morris Minor Series MM.
Thank you! What a lovely car
Very early Morris Minor,prob around 1950 or so
😁
Morris Miner for the bonus point?
Oh yes!
Just had a thought....have you been to veryan. Village in Cornwall?....round white houses to stop the devil hiding in corners....and crosses on roofs.....a must see....
I used to work here 20 years ago but had to commute 30 miles every day because I couldn't afford to live here as well. I had to quit my job before Ludlow bankrupted me.
yeah, great filming, maybe don't stand in the roads or streets and then you won't get beeped at. Believe it or not but people live here and need to get to work so maybe consider that on your next visit to a historic town.
Dont' worry about it - i'm sure the 2 seconds longer it took for them to get to work wont' bother them
Can you film oban
Just watching your video and the car was a morris minor
Thank you Andrew - I did think so but wasn't 100% sure!
Good but you missed Pricklebums Hedgehog rescue in centre
I did
That is a Morris Minor 4 door, from 1952 to 1954 cheese grater grille MM ;-) wrong colour, turquoise wasn't used until later 60's to 70's
Great video, pity about the sound.
Was frustrating
All round the town was that construction noise and mad mad wind!
Better watching without the added music.. just sayin!
Thanks Violet! Agreed!
Split screen morris minor
Morris
Morris minor.
Thank you!
Lovely little car!
All the wealth in UK is colonial. India was jewel in the crown.
Beautiful town! But it looks like you need to be pretty wealthy to afford to live there.
It does! Although I looked in the windows of the estate agents expecting to see really expensive housing but the homes weren't that expensive compared to the big cities really which surprised me
@@GimbalWalkTV I live in the US but have always had this unexplainable obsession with the Black and Whites, ever since I was little.
This place is total eye candy.
Good to know it hasn't totally gentrified yet, the sports car had me worried. But you never know, it could still happen. The middle class town I grew up in is so gentrified now that you need to earn 6 figures a year to live there. I blame all the old Victorian homes.
Shhhhh... don't tell anyone it's there. 😆
A few years back a lot of wealthy people from London and the south of England started moving in, Michelin star restaurants started popping up 6 to be precise in this one small town, the problem for them there's no motorways in South Shropshire and Ludlow isn't on rout to anywhere, Ludlow was voted the quietest town in England, the influx of the rich slowed right down and property prices got back to normal, the small cottages in the side streets aren't overpriced.
Spoilt by some drilling noise.
I can’t help that sadly
We live in Ludlow… and it is following the steps of some Cornish villages. Unless Ludlow changes and adapts to bring in younger people, better shops it is doomed. The shops are so overpriced, the gin overrated and overpriced … There is nothing really for the children to do and it’s a shame. It has the castle but it’s not Arundel, it has a great river but does not promote water sports. The forest is great but where is the bike hire? Ludlow needs an infusion of new blood , new modern shops and councillors with vision.. there was a lot of negative feedback from this years food festival and rightly so…. Fingers crossed we can save Ludlow from the past
Hope so
It’s such a great place
I live there too, I think that one has to recognize that this is a town that has a highe percentage of retired people, and appeals (quite well) to a certain kind of visitor, without coming over as being at all touristy. I don't think that the shpos are more overpriced than in comparable places. It is neat and well-kept without many of the ugly shop-fronts that one can find in other towns in the area. I can't see it as being 'doomed', I think it will continue in the same way, as a pleasnt place to live in with many relatively prosperous retirees; it is not the kind of place that will ever have a much higher percentage of children being reared there (although I would like that). There is only a short stretch of fairly level river, it would not be practical to have water sports ther other than the occasional canoe. Its attraction lies in it being an attractive place to walk along, with the wooded common behind.
