    Thank you Adie for making it possible for me to see these places that I'll  never be able to see otherwise. I'm on the other side of the big pond.  It's so valuable to document these places for future reference.  You're providing a valuable service.

    What a wonderful way to learn about the history of this amazing place instead of reading about it in a book. I love reading but your videos are so much better! I for one am so grateful to be able to visit these wonderful places without having to fly to them, lol. 😊 You always make them so interesting. Thank you!

    I really enjoy your videos, so much information and detailed history. I've been inspired to find historic places in Lancashire, and then beyond. Thank you for the effort you put in to your videos.

    Visiting historical places, either in person or in videos is worth way more than any classroom lesson. Seeing where the action took place really imprints it on your memory. We went to Pearl Harbor many years ago. It was a beautiful sunny day as the tour guide was describing what had happened there. It was hard to imagine how something that  terrible occurred there, but the photos and audio presentations left a lasting impression. We also stood over the USS Arizona which was sunk there, and it brought the reality home. It was the best history lesson I've ever had, and I'll never forget it. Thanks!

    Pevensey Castle survived me and my mates growing up there in the 70’s through to the 90’s…… that’s miraculous!

    The Pevensey marshes are littered with military defences from WW2 even the concrete tank traps at Rickney Farm .You‘ve picked the right county for history,more than you can shake a stick at Nearby Herstmonceaux castle is worth a visit especially when there’s something on .Thankyou for the video ,yes it is a pity we lost the battle of Hastings,the crowd still cheers more for the Saxons at the re-enactments 😊
