- Welsh History, an 18th Century Bridge, coracles and cake! Yes, Miss HubNut is back with a tour of another fascinating Welsh village.
@HubNut is the main channel for car things, @hubnotes for camping stuff and you can support what we do at hubnut.org should you wish to. Thanks.
As soon as I saw a Miss Hubnut video, I instantly clicked to watch it. You have such a warm charisma with your history videos, love them. Thank you Miss H and Ian.
Thank you so much William. What a lovely comment 😊
I also worry about the future of the coracles but am more worried about the future of the fish. I suspect that fish populations have been decreasing over the years, as they have in almost all rivers. It has been good to see a new Miss Hubnut post.
The Teifi is very well policed but you are absolutely right about fish stocks. Glad you enjoyed the video
There is a annual Coracle competition on the river Severn around Shrewsbury
Had a family caravan on coracle's holiday park cenarth for the last 16 years sadly had to sell it this year following the loss of my mother, always loved Cenarth and spent much of my childhood holidaying there , such a beautiful and historic area.
So sorry for your loss. I have wonderful memories on that park as well. It's a very special place
That bridge is gorgeous.. I've never seen anything like it! If you're into old bridges, go to Maidenhead, where the longest, flattest brick built arch bridge in the world (Brunel, 1839) still carries the GWR over the Thames.
It is beautiful. May have to go and see that!
Laughed out loud when you read that bit about 'discharge of conjugal duties' on Margaret Jones' gravestone, I mean, what the hell?! 🤣🤣Very instructive and enjoyable tour, thank you!
I was cheerfully reading thinking 'how lovely'...and then what!?! Glad you enjoyed the video
Thank you for more inspiration and a new place to stop and visit. 🙂
Besides making the bridge lighter, the spandrel holes also help prevent damage to, or flooding upstream of, the bridge. If they weren't there, once the arches were full in times the river was in full flow, the water would back up upstream of the bridge and either go over the river banks causing floods or over the bridge top. In the latter case the bridge would likely be destroyed by the excess weight of water piled up against it or flowing over it.
Aha thank you, that absolutely makes sense! Absolutely worth a visit
Also, being very pedantic, the holes themselves are only part of the spandrel. Spandrel is the term for the whole area between the arch and the roadway deck. Where the spandrel has a hole like this it is known as a pierced spandrel.
Absolutely brilliant video miss hubnut and Ian brilliant filming 👍Absolutely fascinating video and history of Wales it's absolutely beautiful country brilliant
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. It is such a beautiful country
Absolutely fantastic video. You are such a natural presenter. I find you very calming. Even my cats settled down with your voice. Thank you such for the lovely tour. Peace Love and hugs to you and Ian and of course the Hubletts .
👍✌️❤️🤗
Glad to be cat calming 🙂. Glad you enjoyed the video, thank you for the lovely comment
Busy day at work warranted a relaxing chilled educational video from you and a slice of cake...thank you
The two work well together I find!
I remember going there as a kid when we had family holidays in Wales. Beautiful place. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Very much a memory place for me as well. Beautiful spot
Lovely to see you back on your channel Miss Hubnut. Again, a wonderful video and I very much enjoy the historical facts and information. Hope yourself, Ian and the hublets are keeping safe and well.
Glad you enjoyed it - glad to be back! All good chez Hubnut thank you
I've always enjoyed the content of Miss HubNut videos with a cuppa. Well presented and informative as ever Carly with wonderful scenery.
Perfect combination! Thank you Ian
Always a treat to see a new Miss Hubnut video
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you for watching
Absolutely love the Welsh accent. And miss Hubnut speaks beautiful.
Diolch
Another terrifically entertaining video from Miss Hubnut, everywhere that's filmed I want to go to! Terrific video.
Can't go wrong visiting West Wales generally, it's lovely. Glad you enjoyed the video
Great video Miss Hubnut, another fantastic tour of lovely Wales, you are so spoilt by the beautiful landscape and bridges in Wales.
Thank you. We are very very lucky
Miss Hubnut should be working for the BBC excellent historical knowledge and documentary skills. She would certainly boost the ratings.
Thank you Christine that's a lovely thing to say
@@misshubnut Thank you , Hope to see more fab Documentaries soon xxx
Am I the only one who wants to see a HubNut review of a coracle? Surely the most HubNut of water craft.
Perhaps when the Teifi is a little calmer 🤣
I just want to see Mr. Hubnut spinning around in circles in one! LOL.
Or build one.
Thank you for another great informative video, I love that area of Wales, brings back such enjoyable memories. You bring the area to life with local knowledge and such enthusiasm, wonderful 😁Keep these vids coming please 🙂
Thank you Robin. Intending to do them more regularly hopefully
Miss Hubnut love of Welsh history is wonderful.By the way the cameraman did a good job.

Tea, cake, blue cheese, that's me sold on it! It doesn't hurt that it's a beautiful and ancient place.
It's the perfect combination
The return of the excellent local history/food videos. Welcome back, Miss HubNut!
Glad to be back. Thank you
Great to see another miss hubnut vid!
Fascinating as ever
Thank you Neil. You're one of those that inspired me to get another one done!
@@misshubnut I do like to see you talk about local history of your neck of the woods
@@neilpye6089 Thank you, I love making these
Hurray! Miss Hubnut returns.
I do indeed 😁
You are the cutest lady I’ve ever seen, thanks for all you do ❤
Very nice to see Miss Hubnut back on tour - with weather-proof enthusiasm!
Lovely to be back. My goodness me the weather was Welsh!
She's back! Finally light in my life again (apart from the cameraman's equally great contributions to joy in life of course ;-)
Ha brilliant, glad to be back!
Well done Carly a brilliant video again good to see another miss hubnut video back it’s so beautiful there and a very interesting bridge too must put it on my list to visit kind regards to you Ian and the family
Very glad to be back. Absolutely worth a visit. Thank you for watching
Wonderful video as ever, Miss HubNut! When we're back in west Cymru again we'll certainly take a look at Cenarth; and nice shout out to Henllan, too! And thank you for also clearing up something that has bugged me for a while - what exactly a "Spandrel" is...
I love Henllan. Used to live very near. Well worth a visit. Glad you enjoyed the video
As ever a joy! Thank you.
Thank you
Absolutely brilliant video, soon as I seen you uploaded I had to watch. Your fantastic at being a tour guide, I love your videos please keep doing them.
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully I will get some more done ASAP
@@misshubnut Please do, I come from Northern Ireland and your videos really make me want to visit Wales.
Another cracking vid, Miss HubNut. Diolch yn Fawr
Diolch am gwilio
Proud member of the Coracle Society here, from the US. You did a great job explaining the history and future of the Coracle. They are the oldest recorded watercraft, even Moses had one.
Glad to hear I did a good job. I didn't know Moses had one, that's incredible
So good to see another Miss Hub Nut video. You are brilliant at presenting and make them all so interesting. We love West Wales and visit from Devon every year. We did have the pleasure to meet you and Ian at the Re-Fuel car meet in Dunkeswell and asked if you could do more videos please. Would love one on Crymych if you know enough history to make a video or of our favourite beach, Aberporth. Thank you in anticipation :)
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it. We're contemplating venturing into Pembrokeshire soon so Crymych may feature. Aberporth is lovely
Yay, a Miss HubNut video!
Oh yes 🙂
The spandrals in the Cenarth bridge are not only to lighten the structure, but also are extremely important to allow flood water to flow through, otherwise the bridge could be under pressure and could collapse, I used to work in the garage in Cenarth during the 1970,s and have seen the water level rise until it poured through where you were standing! I also knew Bernard Thomas, he lived in Llechrhyd, near the bridge, and he had a workshop there, and hand-made the type of Teifi coracle that you portrayed, yes poaching has always been a feature on the Teifi, we lived in Cilgerran, downstream from Cenarth, and this village was well known for poaching! Thank you for this video, it bought back many memories of the area, we moved from this area many years ago and we are now in Brittany, France. Dioch 'n fawr.
Brittany, how lovely! Are you in any of the areas that twin with Emlyn and whatnot? Lovely to hear your stories about the Teifi and thank you for the bridge information
@@misshubnut thanks for the reply, our area of Brittany is called Finisterre, and is more twinned with Cornwall than Wales, as there is a Brittany Ferries connection from Plymouth to Roscoff, the British have been visiting here for over a hundred years, but since Brexit that has drastically affected the number of British people who want to live or have holiday homes, we have many other summer visitors from all over Europe, which give our region an International flavour.
Thank you Carly lovely video. You & Ian cheer me up no end.
It really makes my day when you have videos ready to view.
You are both so nice. Thank you again.
Aww thank you Alan. You always say the nicest things
I really enjoy these videos. They are so relaxing to watch and really show off the beauty of Wales.
Thank you. Lots of beautiful places to show
Ah, I've really missed your videos. I love the way that you see the things that other people might miss and the passion that you have for the places that you are from and for your own history. So similar to Ian in that way. Thanks for sharing and I hope you can find time to keep them coming.
Thank you for a lovely comment. I love sharing the little magical bits of my area
Fidelity was indeed important years ago and some of us believe that it still is. Nice little video with lots of information thank you, Miss H. By the way, Bannock Burn is a place, near Stirling. I think you meant to say 'Selkirk Bannock', which is a fruit cake, much like Barra Brith. - welcome!
Thank you, as I was saying it I wasn't convinced it was right. Fidelity is indeed so important. She sounded a wonderful woman
Hurrah, a Miss Hubnut video, love your informative productions, makes a trip to South Wales much better as we know exactly where to go. We love Miss Hubnut.
Thank you for such a lovely comment, glad to be of help
The spandrels are deceiving, they don't look that big until you stood inside one. I love watching your videos Carly because your knowledge and passion really shine through and you're such a natural in front of the camera.
What a lovely comment! Ah I am quite small...but yeah, they are large!
@@misshubnut I met you at the first Motorist HubNut social Carly and I figured from that memory that I too could fit in the hole. Question though, How do we get into it in the first place because that is quite high up?
@@graemew7001 There are two footholds but it does still involve lady like shove upwards!
Well this was a plesant surprise, A Miss Hubnut video! 🙂
I hope you enjoy it 🙂
@@misshubnut I'm halfway through and I'm finding the video very interesting, thank you. 🙂
@@waynekerrgoodstyle Thank you so much for watching
@@misshubnut Thank you so much for making the video.
There's something magical about Wales. North Wales is just like Devon or Cornwall scenery wise but without the tourists. Thanks for sharing and well put.
It is very magical, you can feel it. Thank you for watching
I really enjoy history and I'm quite impressed with your ability to be a great presenter. Well done!
Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed the video
Every time we went to visit Cenarth on holiday my dad would tell us about his family holidays on the Cenarth Falls campsite nearby. I always like this area for the nearby little railway the Teifi valley railway.
Coricals were also a popular little vessel on the river Severn.
Ah the Teifi Valley Railway. Can't tell you how many times I've been on that!
Loving the hubnut franchise!!
What a lovely video we live in Pembrokeshire for 10 months of the year excellent well done miss hubnett
Pembrokeshire equally lovely! Thank you for watching
Fascinating video, thank you 😃
Thank you for watching
been there many times loved it
Wonderful video Miss Hubnut we have missed your tours!
Thank you, glad to be back
Had a very pleasant stay in a cottage next to the Coracle Centre about 15 years ago. Some lovely walks in the area.
Lots of lovely walks all around Ceredigion
Another great video Carly, really enjoy learning the history and hearing the stories from all these places that you take us too. 👍😊
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video
that's a very interesting video - thank you for your hard work putting it together 🙂
I'd love to take a picture of that old mill, could you perhaps provide a map reference for its location?
thanks, Nick
Hi Nick, You're very welcome. I shall see what I can do about a map reference
Miss Hubnut is an excellent public speaker.
Thank you, very kind
I love local history, wherever it refers to. Thank you for a great and informative day out in wales. Big thumbs up for more like this.
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video
Thanks miss hubnut for this video welsh history is so intresting i love cardigan i go there quite a lot is a beatiful little town!!!
Glad you enjoyed it Rhys
My partner and I have pictures in one of those holes taken on the same day we met Ian while he was out in Giselle. Nice treat for me as I was watching Hubnut vids all holiday lol
That's brilliant! What a coincidence!
Miss H sure has an eye for finding pittoresque places.
Very fortunate to live in a picturesque area
I've been visiting that bridge since long before you were born. 🤔🤭 In fact such a long time ago that I remember the sheep being dipped by making them swim across the Toby and I remember well helping the coracle maker. Beautiful place!
It's a lovely place. I'd have loved to have seen the sheep washing
What a lovely place, even in the rain, just beautiful and historic. Thank you for the tour.
Utterly stunning, I could have sat and watched the river for hours
love that bridge with the big round hole in it. cool😁
It's very cool
Spent a lot of time in this charming place,lunch in the pb is a must,especially if they have sea bream....keep up the good work...xx
Will have to give it a go! Thank you for watching x
A beautiful and very interesting video about some of the local history in the area, thank you for sharing and I look forward to more videos like this in the future too...♥
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully more to come soon
Quality programme , very well done
Thank you
very interesting. thank you. i love that old bridge. never seen one like that before. love the holes in it.. 😀👍
Thank you, It really is stunning
Very interesting, including those handbags!
Those handbags are glorious. I need one (several)!!
These histotical videos are very even to somebody the other side of the world move over Tony Robinson well done again Miss Hubnut the Welsh historian
Aww thank you
I love miss Hubnuts videos 😀
Thank you
I'm not a great fan of blue cheeses but the way you present it makes me really want to taste it sometime... Great video again!
I'd highly recommend it. If you're not a fan of a blue cheese they have lots of others that are equally as delicious
Great content. Amazing bridge. Always so impressed how over engendered they are to be usable today.
It's impressive with the traffic that goes over it and the force of the river
Perl Las - my favourite !
So so good!
Brilliant
Great video Miss Hubnut, really enjoyed that. More please! Oh, bara brith, yum!
Thank you, hopefully more to come. Bara brith is lush
wonderful to see you back
looking forward to your next video soon
Glad to be back. Thank you for watching
What an interesting video! Look forward to more.
Thank you, hopefully be another out soon
thanks for all the info it was very informative we used to cross that bridge a lot , we used to take our caravan to a site called Dolbryn near Newcastle Emlyn we loved the area ,
It's such a lovely area. Thank you for watching
Really fascinating video! Don't know how we missed the tea and cake last time we went...... Oh it was flooded out and the river was wild 😂
Thank you. It was pretty wild then - decided not to park Bella near the edge 🤣.
I've had the Perl Las from the Caws Cenarth dairy and it is indeed a lovely cheese.
So delicious!
What an engaging and well presented video, thank you. Fully expected Denzil (Geraint) Davies to come past on his electric wheelchair when you were in the cafe! We have spent time in the area as well as Pembrokeshire and would really like to move there, used to the rain as live in north west England! Well done.
Ha rain toleration is a vital part of living in Wales!
Great video, fascinating history.
Thank you
glad your videos are back
More to come soon
Great video, haven't been to Cenarth for a couple of years, but the food in the White Hart has always been really good.
Will have to give it a go!
Brilliant to watch learn me my son moving to Wales Newquay this weekend we can’t wait to explore were we moving to
It's a wonderful place to live. Best of luck with your move
Diolch miss hubnut. Really enjoy your tours.
Croeso, diolch am gwilio
@@misshubnut croeso
We visited in the summer (along with a lot of the other places in the locality). Stunning part of the world, will be back for sure. Looks a lot wetter now though 😂
It's very beautiful. It was decidedly wet on this day - but that does mean the river was stunning
splendid - love it
Thank you
Never knew where that timotei ad was filmed nice to finally discover the location .
And what a location!
@@misshubnut it's a fantastic looking location. I would like to visit wales day never been but always wanted too. And your fun interesting channel has increased that interest. Keep up the great vlogs.
Miss HubNut, it would give me the greatest of pleasure to see Ian paddle a coracle whilst fishing for Sewin. Please fix or for me! 🤔😬👀🤣🤣
Ha this seems to be a recurring request. I wonder if we can make it happen?
