Fantastic Place Wyming Brook Been Loads of Times So Beautiful All Year Round Cheers

[@solitaryrambler]

Nice one, many thanks for watching and commenting 👍

[@chrisbentleywalkingandrambling]

Wyming Brook does take your breath away. All those beautiful cascading waters. I hiked anticlockwise around Redmires, past the old water pump station and down Wyming Brook, then across the top of the Dams to Rod Moor Trig. I missed the Head Stone on the way back. It was 90° off the track, and I was pressed for time. I wish I had now. Another fantastic vlog, Patrick. Thank you for taking us along.

[@solitaryrambler]

I was blown away during the day I filmed this, just loved Wyming Brook. I dropped back down to Rivelin Valley before I reached Rod Moor, so I missed that. The walk off the path to the Head Stone wasn't a long detour to be honest, it's just a bit of a pain when you are en route elsewhere as you have to make that turn off to reach it. Thanks for watching and commenting Chris, all the best 👍

[@jobybean4754]

Another lovely video, thank you! 😊A stunning place to visit, and we will try your walk when the rain stops. Love your variations on a theme too, you dont seem to run out of ideas for your music! 🎼

[@solitaryrambler]

Many thanks Joby, glad you enjoyed it. I do struggle to come up with new music for every film, which I talked about in my recent Dronfield film, but other times I can get on a roll with the composing! 😀👍

[@cathoutdoors523]

Hi Patrick a very happy belated birthday for May 6th. I must say this is one of my favourite places you have been to. A beautiful Brook and stunning views. Thanks for sharing. Have a great weekend 😊👍

[@solitaryrambler]

Morning Cath, many thanks for that. I loved this area and Wyming Brook is indeed stunning. Thanks for watching and have a great weekend too 👍

[@cathoutdoors523]

@@solitaryrambler Morning Patrick. It certainly is a beautiful part of the world. Enjoy your weekend and look forward to your next video. 🙂👍

[@mickbutler9407]

Another lovely walk Patrick some great scenery as well

[@solitaryrambler]

Many thanks Mick, glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@naturewalks]

I enjoy watching stuff like this every now and then, it's quite relaxing!

[@solitaryrambler]

Glad you enjoy it, thanks for watching 👍

[@atrampinthehills.841]

Like you say Patrick...Absolutely wonderful...Several of those Bridges along Wyming brook were washed away a couple of years ago when the brook was in spate...It's a lovely area, really enjoyed your video...once again...Absolutely wonderful.,,,nice to see the Head stone, a few years back someone had painted a face on it, nice to see it has been removed.

[@solitaryrambler]

Absolutely wonderful indeed Steve. I can imagine how forceful Wyming Brook could be in spate, so not surprised about bridges being washed away. Not been to the Head Stone before so it was nice to go there. Thanks Steve for watching and for your support 👍

[@JustAroundTheCornerUK]

What a great and informative walk. Enjoyed seeing Wyming Brook.

[@solitaryrambler]

Thank you 👍

[@richardchan9595]

Wyming Brook is a place of incredible beauty. Thank you for another delightful video, Patrick!

[@solitaryrambler]

Glad you enjoyed it Richard, many thanks as always for watching 👍

[@Sam-x1f7w]

Such beautiful countryside, it’s so green, I’ve been following your channel for the last 3 years, we are so blessed to have such beautiful countryside in England

[@solitaryrambler]

Thank you so much for following! Much appreciated 😀👍

[@AliceChambers-i8m]

Thanks, always enjoy your tours!

[@solitaryrambler]

Glad you like them, thanks for watching 👍

[@richardjohn7991]

Cheers Patrick.

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks Richard 👍

[@michaeldenham9681]

What a lovely, varied walk - open moors, gritstone outcrops, wooded valleys, flowing water. And it's always good to walk somewhere completely new. I think you must have really enjoyed the day.

[@solitaryrambler]

Morning Michael, thank you for your comments and for watching. I enjoyed this day indeed and it was a bonus doing a new route again 👍

[@sylviarowley6668]

Stunning video Patrick, a really beautiful walk. Wyoming brook is one of the places I’d love to visit & your video has made me want to visit even more! Love the hat by the way! ❤x

[@solitaryrambler]

Glad you enjoyed it Sylvia, I loved filming this on the day as it was really beautiful. Thanks for watching 👍

[@jeffallinson8089]

Loved that, always great to do a new walk and that one was terrific! Great job as always.

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks for your kind words Jeff, pleased you enjoyed it 👍

[@kathrynbrock1558]

It was new to me too. Enjoyed it immensely. Thank you.

[@solitaryrambler]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching 👍

[@LindaKing-nq6ut]

Wyoming brook is a lovely place to walk

[@solitaryrambler]

It is indeed 👍

[@shaunmckenna1923]

Hello Patrick , another stunning walk loved it also some very nice music . I have just done a little bit of Rambling myself I took a trip up to Alaska :) amazing place . Thanks Patrick.

[@solitaryrambler]

Many thanks as always Shaun. I loved this walk especially as it was my first time here. Quite different from Alaska I would imagine though! 😁👍

[@OthmarsVlog]

awesome upload 👍🙏💯

[@solitaryrambler]

Thank you 👍

[@jackhooper3927]

Belated HAPPY BIRTHDAY=and many, many more.

[@solitaryrambler]

Many thanks Jack 👍

[@peterdzelmanis4370]

Another glorious video another glorious route downloaded to my OS app.

[@solitaryrambler]

Thank you so much Peter, much appreciated 👍

[@IvorH]

If you're in the vicinity of the Head Stone, it's worth cutting across west to Oaking Clough and following it up to the small reservoir. From there, you have a choice of the conduit back to Redmires, or a trudge across to Stanage.

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks

[@kellyshaw7271]

Wyming Brook was a revelation. I'm not surprised it was busy later on. It's so lovely and calming to walk beside a babbling brook. The fauna was colourful too. You're opening music reminded me of pan pipes, which i love. The music you create really does accompany the walk well. Nice hat by the way. It's always nice to see a hat. For a new walk, it was excellent and you certainly earned your birthday Indian later in the week. Thanks Patrick and i hope you enjoyed your big day. Where did that year go again though? Cheers

[@solitaryrambler]

I was very impressed with Wyming Brook, so yes indeed not surprising it gets a lot of visitors. Glad you enjoyed the pan pipes in my music. I've had that hat for a while, but have only really started wearing it more regularly. Need to keep my head protected from that sun! 😁 I enjoyed my birthday too thanks Kelly, and a lovely Indian meal in the evening. It's scary where the years go though! Thanks for watching and commenting 👍

[@jamiestables4283]

Another superb video Patrick! I've never been to Wyming Brook, but have touched on the Rivelin Valley earlier this year. I can highly recommend the Rivelin Pub if you're that way again. I've done the whole walking in trainers thing, long before I bought my first Karrimors 😅. I remember a walk I did a few years ago, near Carl Walk, I was heading to Over Owler Tor, full boots etc, and a lady passed me in high heels. It was me that ended up slipping on my backside! 😂😂 never mind. Hope you had the very best of birthdays!

[@solitaryrambler]

Thank you Jamie. Must look up the Rivelin Pub if I'm over that way again then. I've done walking in trainers too when I was much younger. This particular woman wasn't young from what I recall though! 😂 Not seen anyone in high heels as yet, but who knows! My birthday was great thanks. All the best 👍

[@dellabestwick5668]

That was a beautiful walk Patrick,I love Wyming brook, it’s especially beautiful in Autumn 🍂 with all the colourful leaves 🍁 lying on the floor like a carpet, so magical 🥰

[@solitaryrambler]

Many thanks Della, yes Autumn is a favourite season due to the colours. I enjoyed filming this walk too. Thanks for watching 👍

[@russ3994]

Incredible , absolutely stunning hope you had good birthday and a good week off !! we are writing this one down one to do when we come back in November Patrick ! we are going to be busy going to Chatsworth house Christmas market also amongst other walks ! great job Patrick.

[@solitaryrambler]

Cheers Russ. Yeah my birthday was great thanks and enjoyed the week off which included a couple more days of filming after this. You'll certainly have plenty of things to do when you're in the area in November! 😀👍

[@amberdy12]

Good walk especially going down the steep Wyming brook. Walking the full length of the river Rivelin is a fantastic walk, passing loads of mill ponds and derelict mills. You end up at Malin Bridge where there is an old mill where the wheel has been renovated.

[@solitaryrambler]

Glad you enjoyed it Richard. I loved Wyming Brook. The stretch I did of the Rivelin valley here I thought was amazing. Thanks for watching 👍

[@alisonmoxon7519]

Great vid Patrick . Loved it . . Thankyou.. liked the hat suited you.. Ali/R x

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks so much Ali, glad you liked the vid and the hat. I've had it a little while now, but only wore it once before in a film I made early last year, but am wearing it more often now 👍

[@steveball1959]

Hi Patrick, a bit late watching this one we've just returned from Hawes where we've been walking the Dales. But another great walk Wyming Brook looks absolutely stunning, you'll have to give the Staffordshire Peak District a go at some point, cheers again.

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks for watching Steve. Wyming Brook is stunning indeed. I'm still slowly working through a huge long list of places I want to film so I'll get to Staffordshire eventually 👍

[@paulbeachcroft3323]

Yet another great film of a great walk Patrick. Do I spy a new/different hat……

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks Paul. I've had the hat a while now, but only wore it once before in one of my videos from early last year 👍

[@ffrancrogowski2192]

Another most enjoyable video production, here, Patrick. I'd heard of the Rivelin Valley before, but wasn't aware that it is on the Western side of the city of Sheffield. It's almost adjacent to Hallam Moor, I guess. It's very beautiful gritstone area countryside, with the outcrops in places of that particular rock. I noticed on your film, at the time of 8:34, that totally impressive set of rocks on the hillside, you'd think it was a Devon scene! The Wyming Brook and the reservoir are most impressive, too. Many thanks for doing this film.

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks for watching Ffranc. Yes Rivelin Valley is next to Hallam Moor. This was a lovely walk to film on the day especially as it was an area I'm not so familiar with. Those rocks in the distance on the hillside you mention were one of the tors on Derwent Edge, the Wheel Stones I think. All the best 👍

[@alanlong1971]

Great vid Patrick, been there once before got a few great photos

[@solitaryrambler]

Nice one, thanks for watching and commenting 👍

[@CountrysideWalking]

Hi Patrick. I do like the hat! It looks similar to Michael's. Not familiar with Rivelin Valley or Wyoming Brook, but the clarity of your films are brilliant. Nice shots. I think its amazing the quantity of films you produce in such short times. Belated birthday wishes by the way for May. Much enjoyed your route, information and waterfalls along this walk with musical accompaniment.

[@solitaryrambler]

Hi Shanita, glad you liked the hat! 😀 I have worn it once before in a video I made early last year, and I remember you commenting on it at the time, but I've started wearing it more often now. It's a Tilley, so very like the one I've seen Michael wear. Thank you so much for your kind words about my films and the musical accompaniment. I do spend a lot of time on the filming, hence long days when I do the walks, but I find the results worth the effort. I enjoyed my birthday too thank you, it was a lovely day 👍

[@nickcooper1260]

Patrick, I think that the legend of the Headstone turning itself towards the rising sun, would be on the Summer Solstice, Mid-summer's Day.

[@solitaryrambler]

Ah OK, I'll take your word for that Nick 👍

[@stevenpason3758]

Patrick, nice rambling walk, and no boom, nice accompanying music, yo need a feather on the hat, then you sing some marching music, I do it if I get tired on a long walk, yankie dottle went to town riding on his pony,put a feather in hat and called macaroni or some pink Floyd or alice Cooper, my birthday close to yours, watch this slippery rocks!

[@solitaryrambler]

Thanks Steven, glad you you enjoyed the walk and the music. All the best 👍

[@Truthbewithyou]

Thanks Patrick, looks a great place and another one i have put on my list thanks to your videos 🙏🏼 Just curious, have you done a video on Luds church and The Roaches? Best woshes mate 🙏🏼

[@solitaryrambler]

Nice one thanks for watching. Yes I've covered those places in a much earlier longer video 👍

[@Truthbewithyou]

@solitaryrambler brilliant, thanks buddy. 🙂 I did go through your back catalogue trying to find one, but I didn't have any luck. But now I know you've done one, I'll have another go finding it. Best wishes pal 🙂

[@fishermansid8861]

What size is that Tilly hat Patrick.

[@solitaryrambler]

It's just a large size 👍

[@deanevans5346]

Another fantastic feature Patrick, loved the bit about the woman in white trainers 😅 amazes me that when I see the people wearing terrible footwear tackling muddy trails

[@solitaryrambler]

Glad you enjoyed it John. Yeah it was funny to see that woman in the white trainers delicately making her way over the rocky path 😅 Thanks for watching and all the best 👍
