Many of the places you visited were there in my childhood. It was great to revisit the area of my childhood. I look forward to seeing more of your videos visiting "my childhood". Thankyou

Is that Toyah Wilcox narrating.?.

Revisit Tweedale ind estate, looks so much better.

Worked on the chimney and the 4th cooling tower and watched them get demolished.

Shithole now

Telford Plaza! I worked on elements of that in the early 90s…….does it have tenants now?

It looks so dreary and souless. The very definition of an anonymous, and bland provincial town that grew too big for the services it had/still has.

I grew up just around the corner from there on randlay... me and my mates have been inside and explored all the tunnels and chimneys the old brickworks is good...

Have you done Aqueduct? My Sister lives there. Just off Majestic Way Steve x

Cool Video Steve, Love Historical information ❤😊

Brackenfield...cant fault it 1996-2005.

You have forgotten the other parts of Madeley Upper Road and the Hall barn area St Michael Church & surrounding area , lived in Madeley for all of my childhood & adult life

Thanks Steve & Marcus for bringing all these historical details of Stafford Park in Telford which help us to outstanding more Telford's history and explain why we love very much the modern Telford Today🥰

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing a look back at local history!

Needs meysl detecting taggs rough over the roaf has a moat too steve great video

Great video. Thanks

Great video I love history did not about stafford park from lizzie Telford

At 17 minutes, i witnessed the railway cutting being filled in when the factory to the south was built, I worked in the factory to the north and used to mooch about in the cutting at lunchtimes, I have a long length of hand formed square link chain that i pulled out of a rotten tree stump down there l

Very interesting, thank you! From Telford.

nice captures and wow you just explored it all with your drone :D

I worked at Priorslee Hall - still the happiest days of my life.

Has anyone tried to remake this film, with current locations, angles, well for those that still exist

Lived in Bembridge and Burtondale in my house-sharing days in 90s. Brookside now has the worst reputation of the three big estates for asb, drugs and teenage gangs who think they are in the mafia.....

The estates are now a rabbit warren for gangs, anti social behaviour and drug dealing...

Please stop cluttering KZbin with this vertical trash! Unwatchable. Disliked, Not Watched, requested no more feeds from your channel. Why not use proper landscape mode; evolution has given us a wide field of view, not a crap pair of blinkers to cut out 60% of our vision! 👎🤮🚮

Very interesting! I lived in 7 Sunny Mead for a while in the very early '70's with my parents before we moved back to Wales when I was about 14-15 years old. I loved it there. My mother liked the design of the house. I find it quite sad hearing about the social problems that later blighted the area.

Hi H.

Very pretty and magical, thank you Steve 😊

Well done!!!!!!!

Excellent footage Steve and well put together mate.

Excellent video. I have never seen Telford looking so beautiful & a big thank you for all your amazing research on this fascinating area👍

Superb Steve, must meet up for these walks sometime.

Great Britain is going to be "GREAT"..... Halesfield is a ghost of its former self, no jobs and people in more debt than ever for the car and the house. What a dream.

Too many houses are now being built and there are a ton of issues regarding anti-social behaviour on the three main estates......

Great and informative video. I left in the early 90's. Went back on a few visits and appalled at what Madeley has become. Bastardised by a corporate brand "TESCO" and it's ripped the heart from the community. It was the epicentre for all to meet,play and be a nuisance to the shoppers on Saturdays at the Market dropping devil bangers on them from the library spiral ramp. It was cutting edge...now it's just mediocre and that's being polite. They ripped the Merc down too (sacrilege).

This is great. Had family ancestors around these areas...darby road..... working at the dale works.... went to those churches.... really interesting!!!

Another really interesting video. Can I ask if there are still any plans to get the Stirchley & Randlay edition of Ultimate Guide released?

My first memory of madeley was in 1961 .I was 5 years old then and I lived in Coalbrookdale and I went shoping with my granny every saturday .when I was 14 I got my first weekend job working at key markets fridays saturdays and shelf filling on sundays when the shop was closed in those days .I met my first ''propper' girlfriend at Woodside disco who lived in Madley . I went to the Abraham Derby school when my familey moved to Woodside around the same time. I still live in woodside now and Madeley is within easy walking distince .I have seen all of the changes happen in this area not all for the best .But the sadist part I find is the decline of Madeley market which now constists of 3 stalls and a dog on a good day .All in all tho it's been a great place to grow up in for myself and my familey.

I moved into Woodside from Coalbrookdale in 1970 when the Houses were built but the footpaths still under construction . I still live here 53 years later .Woodside has not been without it's problems over the years .But to call it rundown now in 2023, is somewhat of an exageration.The courts were indeed a ''no go'' area at one time and we often lament the loss of the old shops and some of the green belt area that has now been built on .Myself and my familey have grown up and grown old here and with zero regrets .

Brilliant video, Do you do tours , Would have been great to be with you

Great video 👍🏼 this area has always interested me and still does, just a shame you can’t go back in time to really see and feel the environment

Brilliant video. The history of Telford really fascinates me

Thanks Steve, that was very interesting and entertaining. Great editing btw.

Amazing video mate, thank you for the mention ❤

Walked this Culvert in the 90s 😉

👋from the USA

Is this no longer accessible?? Surely they could of done something with it...

Your vids are very informative 👍... we've just bought a cpl of e bikes so will be a joy to follow your routes...I'm from Telford but had no idea of these paths...I blame the car lol..😁

Was the look out above the rocks where there is great concrete slab? Love the guides. C
