I had a friend who lived next door to a graveyard. I asked her if she wasn't afraid to live there and she said no, the dead are lovely quiet neighbours - and the burglars are too afraid of the spirits to burgle her house!
I grew up a 30 second walk from a cemetery and later moved to a different location overlooking a different one. We always joked about "quiet neighbours" and there was never any trouble, either with the supernatural, or any kind of antisocial behaviour. Both cemeteries were very old but still in active use.
Thanks for sharing. In 1988, Me and some friends sat on and around a bench in a local churchyard talking from about 10pm then they left after midnight and me and this girl I knew continued talking till 8am. This was during winter and a tad below freezing. There was frost all around us including the bench we were sat on. Watching the town go to bed and get up was a strange experiance.
Hi there, when I saw this video for the first time yesterday, I was deeply impressed. This graveyard still has plenty of space for funerals, but it seems to be abandoned. That means, all the people who are buried here, do really rest in peace, some since many centuries. I love visiting graveyards and cemeteries, it's so quiet there, mostly you can only hear the birds singing. I subscribed only yesterday, but I will watch all of your videos as soon as possible. Thank you for taking us there.
This is an anglo-saxon building (meaning it was erected sometime around the 8th century A.D., that's the 700's), but it was built on the foundations of a Roman bath house, and the stones and bricks of the Roman building were used to build it, which puts the foundations and materials of this place even further back in time from around the 1st to the 4th century. A.D. I am always in awe of how the British take such a huge pride in the conservation of their buildings and monuments. This church is over 1200 years old!
Great video. Did you know that the church is largely built from stones from the Roman City of Virconium, less than a mile away? It was the third largest city in Roman Britain. Check out the exterior walls, and you can see the varied colored blocks from the ancient city. Cheers!
Yes it's actually within the southern portion of the walled city (visible on satellite maps) Also those are original Roman column's alongside the church gate
I watch from the US. Your videos are great since I’m in a “new” country. One of the best things you do is include dates. Amazed by how far they go back plus the design of the headstones & mausoleums.
That was fascinating. Thank you for the tour! It appears everyone behaved themselves as you had hoped. I was a bit terrified for you. That wedding was loud enough to wake the dead so, I'm surprised you didn't have a visitor or two. It makes me wonder who or what tried to open the church door. Looking forward to your next adventure. Stay safe.
Some of headstones that you can't quite read if you take your torch or flashlight and hold to the side of the lettering it can make it possible to read.
I give you credit, sir-I could never bring myself to spend an entire night alone so close to a graveyard! Also, as a writer, I can tell you that you are NOT pronouncing “lichen” incorrectly. Your pronunciation is the standard British pronunciation, where as we Americans pronounce it “LIKE-en,” which is now also becoming acceptable on your side of the pond. Thanks for another great video!
This was so cool seeing your "chill" version of "Champing"( which to me seemed both interesting and relaxing as you took the time to explore the Church & cemetary. I say this because (in this same church), a few months back, YT channel Sam & Colby brought some friends to that Church for an overnight Paranormal investigation. Their version was the opposite of "chill" which included a lot of screaming, scary music and running around (lol).👻
Beautiful Church, but soooky someone tried to open door or something did 👻 😉 cute pup& hedgehog ❤ I would love to stay there ❤ last full moon I enjoyed feeding a couple of foxies at a beautiful graveyard & heard a beautiful owl too, very magical peaceful ✌️ ❤
Sir, I love your videos i have gone through some of England's bone yards But also as well New England has some excellent yards and burials like this one over here in the states I really support your channel and I'm amazed thank you for taking the time to show us your tours they are amazing . Thank you for doing these videos your excellent sir.
Very awesome tour thank you for taking us along with you. Can I ask why are we sleeping in this Cemetery tonight? You are much braver than I am my friend. Can't wait for the update on your nightly Adventure. Enjoy and stay safe
New subscriber and I’m loving your content! You have a very soothing voice which compliments your videos immensely Many thanks for chilling me out after a gruelling day 😌
New to your channel. May I ask the tombs of the people in body shapes , are they buried under the floor of the tomb? You showed the open crack between them that it was empty. So is it like the Queen there is a vault underneath? Do they still hold service here? Love the old churches. Thank you for your tours. You have a nice voice. Will tell you it’s the live one’s you have to be scared of, not the dead one’s!
My grandmother always said to me that it is only the living that hurt us I would like to live in a converted church with a small Victorian grave yard for a garden 💜
I don’t really care about sleeping on a camp bed, when I won’t be sleeping on it … 😂 I never knew this was a thing. I am intrigued by it I have to admit.
Dan I enjoyed the walk through the church and and the grounds. You're cute Church Pekingese dog was a good friend to have at night. Anyway thanks for the tour.
That's a great deal, being able to sleep in one of these old churches. And it's a good way for them to raise money for upkeep. Was there a concert nearby? The music, mostly the bass was heard throughout. Nice dog!
Very cool tour and readings. It’s a beautiful church. Now May I call my therapist for you ? I think you might need to talk to him 🤣 . So happy u survived sausage. Great job 👏🏼
No, it wasn't someone trying to get into the church, while you were in there, someone posted a "Champing in Progress" sign on the door. It wasn't there when you first entered, but it was there after your night walk. It would have been great to see some footage of camping in the church overnight. What do you think is the attraction to the idea of 'champing'? Can you also camp in a mausoleum or crypts overnight?
The true magnificent tranquility suroundings shoud mesmerizing the people living in those place those time..quite loveable Reflection old English.short fantastic video you have mad w death G.walk
What a beautiful church. When you flipped the lights on it looked like just a regular church. But it’s also obvious it’s a very old structure if you get my meaning, like a hybridization. It’s kind of unsettling though at the same time, it’s so quiet lol
Myself and a few friends often go champing the churches are very well equipt for your stay. We have heard unexplained voices and we really enjoy the graveyards especially around 2am very spooky. 😂 loved your video your welcome to join us anytime.
"Litchen" is the UK pronunciation. "Lie-kin" is the American. When and why they split, no idea. But I think this follows a fairly common thread in the pronunciation differences between the two "dialects" of English particularly when it relates to words received from other languages; "lichen" is based on a Greek word or words, and as such "ch" out to be pronounced more like a "k" as it is in Greek. For some reason, American English tends to follow the pronunciation from the original language more often than British English does, which tends instead to follow its own rules (such as "ch" almost always being pronounced as 'tcha" regardless of origin).
You learn something new every day on youtube Champing This is honestly the first time in my 58 years I've heard that term or what it entails. Were there toilets in there as well? 🤔
For us, we are a very small country, land are limited but we still can choose to cremate or bury but for bury, bodies must be exhumed after 15 years. So I told my son to cremate me and throw my ashes to the Garden of Peace after I die. And for bury, we need to pay to the tomb caretaker some money every year to take care of the tomb when we went for our tomb sweeping day or QingMing Festival. I love to visit cemetery too, Bukit Brown cemetery is very interesting too but some part are going away for our Public Housing. :(
100 quid a night ...to stay in a church over night .....okay!!!! In other words the churches are inneed of money 🤑 how to raise funds for maintenance ..i guess. I think it could be rather good fun. But chilly at night. I stayed overnight in a converted dungeon/ castle one time ..very creepy with original features. That could be a very romantic night for a couple - sleeping together in a church ....wow.. or the night of your wedding in a church 🤩 ❤
hi we live in a converted Chape surrounded by a huge graveyard...l it's the living you have to fear.. in this video when you filmed the tower door watch the keyhole!!!! it looks like something moved behind the keyhole...... 😂
I assume you are from Shrewsbury? I would love to do a overnight in a church, couldn't afford £100 though. I would love to join you on Graveyards walks as it is so interesting and I am interested in war graves also.
Did I hear that right, when reading a plaque, you said a man died in a flying accident in 1822 in Farnborough?? Interesting videos, thanks for sharing.
I enjoyed the walk. My grandmother that was born in 1891 always said, you don't have to be afraid of the dead, only the living.
That's exactly right, the dead will never hurt you, the living will
Mine said its not the dead that'll harm you it's the living...more less se thing 😉
I thought the casket of the husband and wife was terrifying, I thought at any moment the statues were gonna spring up to life
My Grama used to say that 😜🇬🇧
Descendant not ancestor.
I had a friend who lived next door to a graveyard. I asked her if she wasn't afraid to live there and she said no, the dead are lovely quiet neighbours - and the burglars are too afraid of the spirits to burgle her house!

Both cemeteries were very old but still in active use.
And besides, god is watching over the dead as his fallen children, you shouldn’t be afraid of churches, as god is always with you
I’d love to stay there!!! I wouldn’t be scared, people who are alive are scarier to me!
Thanks for sharing.

I love your tours.. I lived in England for 6 years many years ago and I used to do this on my off time.. thanks for taking me back to very good times.

You're welcome Ramona. Thank you for subscribing and I hope you enjoy my other videos
The appearance of space may be illusory. Many people could not afford grave markers and many markers disappear over the years.

O lume absolut tacuta ....., o lume care inca vorbeste ... o lume paralela ... 💎
The good bit would have been what happened overnight in the church
eu sunt roman si eu vizionez clipuri din astea gotice
You kept saying "we" and I didn't know why until I saw your pup! So cute!
He was so confused why we didn't go home that night ha
I watch from the US. Your videos are great since I’m in a “new” country. One of the best things you do is include dates. Amazed by how far they go back plus the design of the headstones & mausoleums.
Great Job and of course we love the sweet dog 🐕 as well.
Beautiful Church! Loved this one.

Deeeeeeaad güd woks!!! Oh how I love the walks.
Some of headstones that you can't quite read if you take your torch or flashlight and hold to the side of the lettering it can make it possible to read.
I hear hoot owls . Love your videos . Love your accent . Pray ya never loose it!
I give you credit, sir-I could never bring myself to spend an entire night alone so close to a graveyard! Also, as a writer, I can tell you that you are NOT pronouncing “lichen” incorrectly.

I had to google (youtube) them....Not to my taste but good luck to the young lads
What a beautiful church.
Beautiful Church, but soooky someone tried to open door or something did 👻 😉 cute pup& hedgehog ❤ I would love to stay there ❤ last full moon I enjoyed feeding a couple of foxies at a beautiful graveyard & heard a beautiful owl too, very magical peaceful ✌️ ❤
Watching this all the way from Botswana
Love your videos
Your historic content is amazing ....
Hope i can visit and see all this someday...
Thank you Dineo. Love to Botswana!!
Graveyards definitely changes at nightime, ikno logically it shouldn't but it f..kn does 🤣
It's so exciting to visit ancient places and it's one my greatest wishes

You will be safe in this church. I feel it.
It felt very peaceful Carol
Thanks!
Thank you for supporting the channel Elizabeth! Such a kind gesture x
That's the first I've heard of Champing, wow what an experience! hope you enjoyed !
Never again lol
😂😂😂@@deadgoodwalks
Great to be able to see the date on a lot of the older headstones. I don’t believe I’d be outside in the dark. Thanks for sharing
You are very brave! Thanks for the tour!
Thanks for watching!
Hi, spooky but beautiful cemetery, and you sir are very brave walking around in a cemetery at night.
Amazing never heard of this before now I need to go champing
Scary but awesome 👌😱👍
Looking forward to this👍💯
Thank you for the tour 😊 just i missed the live
If the church is still consecrated it should be the safest place you could sleep, if not that's another story
New subscriber and I’m loving your content!
You have a very soothing voice which compliments your videos immensely
Many thanks for chilling me out after a gruelling day 😌
Happy to help Jasmine, thank you for watching x
New to your channel. May I ask the tombs of the people in body shapes , are they buried under the floor of the tomb? You showed the open crack between them that it was empty. So is it like the Queen there is a vault underneath? Do they still hold service here? Love the old churches. Thank you for your tours. You have a nice voice. Will tell you it’s the live one’s you have to be scared of, not the dead one’s!
Really really cool
My grandmother always said to me that it is only the living that hurt us I would like to live in a converted church with a small Victorian grave yard for a garden 💜

I never knew this was a thing. I am intrigued by it I have to admit.
haha, yes go for it if you want the worse sleep of your life lol. I didn't sleep for more than 30mins at a time all night
Neat place! Thanks for sharing this location🪦
Great video. Looks like all the spirits were tucked in
Thank God
Dan I enjoyed the walk through the church and and the grounds. You're cute Church Pekingese dog was a good friend to have at night. Anyway thanks for the tour.
why not sleep there? Dead people do not harm you, it is the living you should fear
thanks for the tour, luv going to cemeteries 😊
Thanks for coming to the live Violet
@@deadgoodwalks wouldn't have missed it! thanks again 😎
I hope your night went easy! You are braver than I could ever be!
One could hardly read most of those inscriptions on the tombstones,may they all rest in peace.
That's a great deal, being able to sleep in one of these old churches. And it's a good way for them to raise money for upkeep. Was there a concert nearby? The music, mostly the bass was heard throughout. Nice dog!
😂🤭😉have fun!👏👍😎
Very cool tour and readings. It’s a beautiful church. Now May I call my therapist for you ? I think you might need to talk to him 🤣 . So happy u survived sausage. Great job 👏🏼
Yes asap please Linda lol
Wow, staying in a church for the night. Love it.

My mom use to tell us the dead can’t hurt you only the living.
Both versions of lichen are used in the uk :) so whether you pronounce it Litch en or like en it's totally you're preference :)
Wow your braver than me! Out of interest how did you sleep? I don’t think I would of got much sleep at all. But fantastic video x
Thanks
Thanks for your continued support Ian
Another great video, thank you.
What an awesome experience. I would love to do something like that.
Beautiful church 🖤

My mom always said, the dead won't hurt you, it's the living you gotta be careful around
Very enjoyable 👏
44 hours I can’t wait that long 😛
Get yourself an olight torch, they are extremely good, that torch is useless bro

Good luck

You are really brave .even thousand of gold there .I will never go there.
Keep up the good work matey
Love this channel.
Well that got creepy in the dark! 👀
Oddly serene 🥰
Your brave going outside in the dark
I love the dark :)
Fair play to you, no way could I do that, thoroughly enjoy your channel 😬
hi we live in a converted Chape surrounded by a huge graveyard...l it's the living you have to fear.. in this video when you filmed the tower door watch the keyhole!!!! it looks like something moved behind the keyhole...... 😂
a whisper at 23:03 I guess i heard
I would love to stay in a church over night and a graveyard/Cemetery
i like to stay in the church not so spooky like in the cemetery
Enjoy your videos. It's liken
I've been binge watching your videos... Lol... The idea of this video creeps me out... 💜💜💀💜💜
Thanks Jeremy
I only live about 15-20 mins from wroxeter, I live in Telford area. We have got good graveyard in the area.
The saying goes the dead wont hurt you its the living
I love you!
May I ask who’s dog that was ? Thanks for the lovely tour , would love to visit this and other old churches and cemetery’s in England
What would be the problem with spending a night here? Would probably be quite peaceful.
I could do it no problem at all because I am not in fear of things that do not exist.
Darker than 10,000 midnights!
I assume you are from Shrewsbury? I would love to do a overnight in a church, couldn't afford £100 though. I would love to join you on Graveyards walks as it is so interesting and I am interested in war graves also.
Just a bit further north up the M6. Sure drop me an email and I’ll let you know when I’m in the area next
@@deadgoodwalks OK I'll do that. Thanks xxx
I cannot sleep alone in this church..Its so creepy, there is graves inside..
was good in the church if was smaller without graves and have some books to read in a small library
Did I hear that right, when reading a plaque, you said a man died in a flying accident in 1822 in Farnborough?? Interesting videos, thanks for sharing.
Yeah, I think it was one of the plaque's inside the church
Apoyando compartido 👍
knowing that downstairs dead people are sleeping 😬 nope😳
