- A brief history of Bulwell Bogs.
This is the first time I've tried anything like this before, so apologies for any amateurishness about it. I've learnt a lot whilst compiling this.
If reaction is good, there will be another Bulwell video over the next few months.

I am 90 yrs and live in New Zealand, Been here for almost 60 years, Still got m pommy accent. I love the girl reciting the poem in Nottinghamees. Well done.
Great effort. Best wishes from Canada!
Many thanks 👍
I've just found this its been great to refresh my mind of great days being a Bulwell lad now living in Barcelona
Still miss the place as it was such ashame things changed so drastic
I have learnt things I didn't even no about Bulwell so thanks😁👍
Pleasure... Don't forget to check out the rest of the Bulwell videos on my channel. Will keep you occupied for a few hours 👍
another great work Paul, thanks for including the poem-important to save the accents which increasingly become milder with time
greenrosenz many thanks. Don't forget to check out all the other Bulwell videos on my channel too 😊
Played in there as a kid. In the early 80s
Awesome video, I'm proud to be from Bulwell, Not many folk can say that nowadays.
Ditto, lived in Bulwell until I was 20, and worked there until I was nearly 50. It doesn't deserve the stick it gets !
Bulwell bogs is the best park ever I been
I used to take my three children to bulwell bogs with jam jars to catch toddlers forty years ago
well Done - you are a brave man for trying and succeeding.
I’ve lost count of the number of time I’ve fell in the river there, and the boating pool as well. It was usually a Sunday on the way back from Sunday school by the fire station.
I remember the lido where every part of it was an object you could crack your head open on and it was dead slippy lol
THATS WHERE I LIVE BULWELL,NOTTINGHAM
I seem to remember a theatre facing the bogs. I saw a pantomime there many , many year’s ago
That was the Olympia. Check out my video on cinema etc in Bulwell
Who'd av thunk it, even Bulwell 'as kulcha.
As one of the Co-op's erstwhile trolley boys, I've fished many a shopping cart out of that River Lean
Be fair... you probably pushed it in😉🤣
Excellent
Thank you for preservating the past
Hope someone knows why daavids Lane is so called. Would love to know the history behind it ...
I think it's very good what your doing here,not enough is emphasized of Nottinghamshire whereabouts,you wouldn't happen to have anything going Beeston area by any chance,thanks Bob
Nothing on Beeston at the moment, but that doesn't mean that there wont be in the future. Bulwell is where I grew up, but there's only so much you can do on Bulwell, so I've done a range of videos just about Nottingham... eventually I'll move on to other areas given time.
This is really great I just love it. Can I get it on dvd. I know alot of people who would love to see it but don't have a computer
Hi Robert. I've not done anything on DVD yet, but I'll put something together with all my videos on, closer towards Christmas if you're interested :)
Hydro Power of the Past.
Would I be correct saying that there was a scrapyard where the children’s play park is now, that I believe was in the early sixties, possibly called Henderson’s ?
That's correct. It's also shown in the film The Ragmans Daughter
My partner is also a big fan of yours too,
Never thought I'd have fans when i was at Sankeys lol
Hi I live in bulwell me duck
Is the Richard Sankey plant pot factory still in existence Paul
The original one burnt to the ground in 1980 (there's a housing estate there now). The one which ran from 1980-2016 on the Blenheim Industrial Estate is now used by UK Mail. Richard Sankey & Son Ltd sadly no longer exists, and Sankey is just a trade name
Thank you Paul,my old work mate,no.17 driver??
Ay up Bob, how's it going ???
Glad you like the videos mate !!
Have you seen the state of the bogs now. Last time I took a walk down there knots of rats were in and out of the bins. It was never like that in the 70’s and 80’s Nottingham city council hang your heads in shame
Very sad to hear that
bulwell bogs is aid a trampy place it's horrible
