Deptford London Walking Tour - Salty Saucey Sailor's History Romp
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 06. 2024
- Deptford has now become one of my favourite London walking tours! It was established as a royal naval dockyard by King Henry VIII and has seen innumerable voyages of discovery set sail over the last 350 years.
Walk the streets with Joolz where sailors trod. Walk in the footsteps of Sir Francis Drake, Sir Walter Raleigh and Queen Elizabeth I!
See where the Jolly Roger pirate flag was born and where the ancient mariner is buried alongside Christopher Marlowe.
Samuel Pepys being unfaithful to his wife and the Czar of Russia, Peter the Great, being wheeled around a huge garden in a wheelbarrow!
There's also Dire Straits and Ha'penny Hatch, a beautiful piece of Victorian engineering.
Oh, and don't forget the usual helping of Mutiny on the Bounty and Mydiddee one of the first Tahitians to visit England.
See the old victualling yard and the naval officers' quarters.
Deptford is a terrific place for a walking tour with a salty sailor's theme!

😻💓😻
Done!
Mark knopfler. Was born in Glasgow..
Nice to meet someone else who is obsessed with the mutiny on the bounty. I went to norfolk island last year and have been fascinated ever since.
Innoculation and Vaccination are completely different things.
I guess you already know that too.
Loads of symbolism and coding in this video.
I love watching not only for the interesting history , but for the genuine fun you all have while presenting it. It gives one a lift in these gloomy time , Thanks so much and please , keep em coming !! Cheers from the USA.
The legend has returned !!! And that too with a bang !!! Nice to have you back Joolzy !!!!
Thanks. Yes, it's been a struggle of late
@@Joolzguides A reply !!! Made my day, or what's left of it !!! Cheers !!
its alright for some! i never get a reply from JG
deptford is a hidden gem of London .. it deserves much more
My father was rescued by HMS Deptford after torpedoeing in WW2. Give that ship a medal!
I am an original deptford boy and everything you said is great some stuff I never knew
Many generations of deptford born family .
Simon's BBC was spot on and amazing hahaha
You and Simon should do BBC host-offs more often. Very fun episode!
🙌 agreed! That was hilarious and right on the spot mimicry....
I love the story of the stretcher railings and the bollards that were cannons with the ball's in the top. When I go to London I will look out for these and Parish boundaries. Thank you 😀👍
That is one of my favourite pubs in London, it's called The Dog and Bell. Before covid every Wednesday evening a bunch of people would band together to play Irish traditional music just for fun, needless to say the atmosphere was greatly improved by them. I recommend this Pub to everyone, especially if you like continental craft beers as you wouldn't be able to try them all before falling into a coma and dying as the selection is quite extensive. Thanks for the great video
Ooh. Thx. Adding that to my list for my Christopher Marlow memorial trip.
I can vouch for the dog and bell, seriously such a great hidden gem 💎
outrageous establishment
'Irish traditional music???' how awful, I can't stand that rubbish, hope the place goes down the toilet ..... or gets taken over.
@@gregtaylor6146 a man of culture I see
Simon nailed it.
Finally a new Video!!! Hurray my Sunday is saved! Three most famous food market in Munich Germany is called Viktualienmarkt.
I believe Peeps wrote his diary in his own shorthand code so his wife couldn't read it. You put yours on CZcams and everyone sees it. The best 24 mins of the day.
Yes, that's right. I was going to put that, but you beat me to it. Even though it was coded, he wrote the naughty bits in French, as I expect you know.
You got a like before I even watched the video, because your that good.
That's kind. There's also someone who gives me a dislike as soon as I've uploaded! (Maybe it's my mum😂)
Yep. as a Londoner and proud, I'll 2nd that! Fantastic tour.
Welcome back Simon & Joolz - yourself. Great to see you again SIR. 👍🙏💗🪐
Following you everywhere - not stalking, as I prefer the fairer FEMALE sex - having said that, be well. You are an inspiration. 👍🙏😊💗
I love England. Was there once for a week. Would love to go back but can't right now so your videos are my way to vacationing. Thanks
We look forward to your visit Sir, perhaps your ancestors are from here?
I love how you end up at the pub at the end of nearly every video. A tall pint of moisture to end the day. well done, sir!
Great to see your back Joolz.. As always your videos never disappointing to watch. Thanks Joolz.
Sad to see how our history has been trashed in places like Deptford , all the old pubs have gone and much of the old Georgian town houses .
Yes. Sometimes after work I used to go to the Duke in Deptford, on the corner of Gonson Street. It’s still there, but totally different from how I remember it. For a brief period, it was renamed ‘nail in the heart’ after that Jools Holland song. Same with other parts of Deptford.
My wife and I were married in St Nick's church, the alleged resting place of Kit Marlowe. Nineteen years ago. Bless you Deptford!
My local and favourite pub in London featuring at the end there! The Dog and Bell, highly recommend if anyone’s ever in the area. Lovely atmosphere and stunning range of craft and European beer
Bowler hat and umbrella in Deptford!Lucky you wasn't mugged mate!
Seriously,I enjoy your videos.
absolutely the best guide to London
That was bloody spiffing, old chap! Pepys wrote his diary in shorthand and code. He was smarter than your average philanderer.
Good point - he was a lad wasn't he?
Deptford is where Jim , from 28 Days Later lived. He walked there , along the train tracks to discover his dead parents.. Great Video again Joolz ..
I've lived here for 11 years and you've shown me places I haven't seen before.
Great to see a notification pop up from you. A pleasure to once again watch you explore parts of London that I otherwise wouldn't have known existed. And you do it so well.
Cor...it’s all changed there since I was a youngster! It was really rough and scary round there. Now it looks all gentrified! Haven’t been there in over 30 years.
Very enjoyable tour!
I lived there in the late 70s. It could be rough and ready, but I did like living there. Yes, it’s changed big time - you can see it on streetview. Not walked around those streets for a long time. I keep telling myself I should visit there one day. I’d probably still like it, but I can’t help feeling I’d be disappointed too.
Thoroughly entertaining whilst educational, too. Well done, kind sir.
If you want a "different" pub experience in Deptfors, check out the White Swan on Deptford High Street. In there midweek at about 3pm and they were playing some Hard Trance and everyone was on coke and pills. We stayed for a drink, then ran away as we were freaked out!!!! It's a must!!!
Me 24 minutes ago: "Deptford? Who cares about Deptford?"
Me now: "Grab your coat, we're going to Deptford for the day."
Looks like an interesting place to have a look around!
Deptford
@@0121doone indeed
I was brought up in New Cross 5 minutes from Deptford and even went to secondary school Deptford green school. However have moved out now but its interesting to see Deptford when my gran used to take me to the market every weekend for food shopping.
@R Trust me, Deptford is a trash! I live in Deptford, it’s so boring!
My Dad loved this. He was born in Deptford and was a child there during the war. It brought back so many happy memories for him. A big thank you from him and myself.
Another tid-bit about Albury Street... Legend has it that Lord Nelson used to meet up with his mistress, Lady Hamilton at number 34 Albury Street. Also, it’s a shame you missed the caskets stored in the entrance walls of the Crypt at St Paul’s Church. Last time I went there, you could see them clearly through a hole in the wall. They may have been moved now but it was well creepy.
Don’t suppose you could get into St. Nicholas church, but if you had, you’d have seen the most marvellous wood carvings by Grinling Gibbons.
Yes, I’ve heard that about Lord Nelson. I used to live in Albury Street just a few doors down from there. If only I could have bought that house! A great place to live. But that’s real fantasy land thinking of course.
Brilliant as usual Joolz, thank you.
I always enjoy your tours, but for some reason this was one of my favorites--good job to you and your compadres.
Stay Safe Jules!! Looks like it'll be a long testing Winter, hope you and your family stay healthy.
My Home Town In Good ol South East London. Rich in History. Love and miss it.
Another great video! 🎥 Thanks Joolz!!
I love all these videos about London, I love hearing how people from Liverpool played a part in the development of it too, loved the story of Ferranti, also His granddaughter Valerie Hunter Gordon invented what is considered the world's first disposable nappy and an early sanitary towel system.[1]
Quite a family
You should of been my history teacher, I enjoyed every moment. Look forward to watching the next history lesson
Welcome back, Joolz! Your shows are not only lots of fun, they are also educational. Best to you!

Great video as always. Love your strides!
The crew of the Bounty...were "dragged from the gin house's and gutters" of Deptford High Street...1932 novel Mutiny on the Bounty...great little video Joolz...I lived on the Pepys and surrounding area in the 70s, 80s and 90s...I currently live by Waterloo Station on a Peabody estate.. It's like living in a theme park...The Globe, London Eye blah blah blah...but not being able to afford the rides...Deptford is a real bit of London history...old and new..don't forget Deptford Fun City records...thanks for posting geez👉🇬🇧👉👁️👁️👉☑️
Another fantastic video. Your research is stellar and delivery even better. Keep up the good work!
I love your videos! I' ve learned so much about my favourite city - Thank you very much!
Great video as always Joolz!
Sadly they can no longer raise Ha'penny hatch ( or Creek bridge as I know it) due to the rail that runs across it being continuous and without the necessary break.
Love all your videos
As usual! An excellent tour 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 x fee
Brilliant, really fun and interesting.
"Way on down south, London town"! Yet another great, heart warming video Joolz!
Beer at the end looked AWESOME!!!!🍺🍻🍺🍻🍺🍻
Nice to have you back.
Yet another cracking, knowledge filled presentation.
What a wonderful way to start my day ... with the return of Joolz!
Another fun and fascinating video! You brightened a miserable Sunday lunchtime :)
Brings back many happy memories for me, I lived in Deptford for 13 years, looks like a lot has changed since I moved away. I did not know that about Dire straits though and my friend lived in that block.
good to have you back joolz & cheers
What a pleasant way to spend my Sunday morning.
Welcome back Joolzy. Great to learn so much about an area of London I know so little about. Well deserves a visit.
Great tour video. Brings the city alive. Plus Joolz is quite likable and very easy on the eyes.
Simon, Simon, that was brilliant! (Love you, as always, Joolz!)
Hi Joolz glad your back..more happy Friday lockdown nights watching your brilliants vids with a fine Ale or ten..Cheers!
Always good to see Joolz.
I had everything crossed there would be a new video today! I love your videos so much and they’ve certainly kept me entertained this year. I discovered them in March time I think! Perfect! Lots of ideas for when I can get back to London. Can’t wait for more!
Deptford Creek bridge, a listed structure, has been welded in the down position for many years. However, up to the 1960s, ship-owners could request it to be raised at times convenient to themselves i.e. when the tide was in, which was a tad inconvenient when this was during the rush hour. An Act of Parliament was needed to sort this out.
Could I please ask a question? It is mentioned that the bridge would be raised if a tall ship needed through. However, it seems a very narrow space. Is it just the view that we are getting from the video that makes it look small or was the space for small, sailed vessels? I was thinking more of commercial sailing ships when Jules was discussing the bridge
@@livingthegoodlifechannel The creek is very shallow, we would have been talking about a small yacht or motor boat, not the QE2 :)
Deptford Creek Bridge was up a few weeks ago. It’s part of my run route in the mornings, New Cross Station to The Trafalgar pub and back. It definitely still opens and closes.
@@denizmehmed971 Obviously welding isn't what it was!
Excellent accompanying music!
I’ve not been to London for about 30 years, but your vids are tempting me. Brilliant channel Jools.
So glad your back missed your cool witty interesteting videos
I really would have loved your channel when I lived in London, as there was so much that I missed. Glad to see all your wonderful videos of my old haunts.
Love your work Joolz
Wonderful! Great Virtual Tour! 👍👍😊😊 AWESOME! Enjoyed it!
Lived here for almost 4 years now and love discovering it's history. Such an interesting part of town!
Que ótimo assistir um novo vídeo do Joolz domingo de manhã!
Great video! I used to live in Deptford, and work there too. Nostalgia time...
One of your best. Perhaps its because its one of my favourite areas and well done.
Thanks for the new video. Have been ploughing through the previous ones several times now. 🤪
