A MEDIEVAL VILLAGE WALKABOUT - KERSEY, SUFFOLK.

While staying in a rental house in Kersey, Suffolk, both Oana and I went for a walk to explore this ancient medieval village. We highlight some of them and even get to see inside a former weavers' house in the process of renovation.

Absolutely love this videos....I especially love watching them at 2AM while sitting in my office garage with the doors open and the temperatures dropping.

[@HauntedEarth]

Thank you! Hope you don`t get too cold though watching. :)

Oana looks a breath of Spring ❇️🌸🌹🌺🌻🌼

[@HauntedEarth]

She certainly is, Earthcat! :)

A marvelous tour of Kersey, deep in detail and much more than I can remember as a child on my bicycle back in 1967. Its good that many ancient houses are renovated…even if as second or rental homes…it preserves at least these great buildings for prosperity 😊Thanks for taking us with you! 😊👍👍

[@HauntedEarth]

Thank you my friend :)

[@Lorriann63]

It's a cozy-looking village, I understand why people would want to come there and stay for a while. Too much pressure and anxiety in the modern world. Than you for the walk-about. I enjoyed it very much!

[@HauntedEarth]

Thanks, Lorraine. It`s a lovely place! :)

[@paulukjames7799]

Lovely old buildings of this great village

It’s always good when there’s an upload from this channel. From Darren in Australia 🇦🇺✝️🇦🇺

[@HauntedEarth]

Thanks, Darren. Really appreciated! :)

[@bethwaltz2607]

Your explorations of the back lanes are always rewarding, Chris. Tidied away from the public view are such quirks as letter boxes in walls at knee level (?) and a herd of mini-horses hosting a pet chicken. (But where are the cats? Oh, of course, there's Poppy...)

[@HauntedEarth]

It`s these `off the road` areas which has so much surprising interest, Beth. :)

[@kariwellborn5083]

What a pretty little village. I am so glad you and Oana got to stay for a bit. Thanks for the walk about.

[@HauntedEarth]

My pleasure as always, Kari :)

[@paulmelton8669]

Thank you for bringing Kersey to life in your video. A branch of my family used to live in the village in the 18th and early 19th century, so I really must visit one day.

[@HauntedEarth]

You should, Paul. It is very quiet and still very historic :)

[@nigeldewallens1115]

That was utterly delightful! thank you Chris. what amazes me down here in France, all the villages, still have the specific washing places which also have a roof to protect the folks from the sun! Seeing the one you pointed out was most interesting! As the ones down here are quite huge and rectangular too! I really loved all the old buildings and the immense age of some of them too!!

[@HauntedEarth]

Thanks, Nigel for sharing that. Rural France is still such a beautiful part of the world with many preserved traditions. :)

[@elainebines6803]

I've been lucky enough to visit kersey and Lavenham. I want to stay now! I shall be following your Romanian adventures... Very exciting for you both

[@HauntedEarth]

Thanks, Elaine. There is still a lot of history there to enjoy! :)

[@TheSWolfe]

What a lovely little village, and so quiet, even though your walk-through took place during the day's three (perhaps four) vehicle rush hour lol. I adore the thatch-roofed crooked houses, flowers and period remnants. I do believe I'll keep my modern plumbing, electricity and contemporary laundering techniques, but in many other ways, modernity is oft overrated. Beautiful day for a walkabout!

[@davidgreen2801]

Looks absolutely splendid. :)

[@HauntedEarth]

It is very much so, David. :)

[@zhouzhang9102]

That was great, a nice insight, thanks Chris. Villages are villages all over the world, which makes it interesting to see the similarities as well as the differences. I have seen thatched roofs in North China, near the sea, where sea reeds or grass of some sort seem to be used. By the way, I hope you have taken your famous hat to Romania with you.

[@HauntedEarth]

My pleasure, Zhou. You are correct about village life across the world. There are many similarities in how people live. Appreciate your comments, thank you! :)

[@Useaname]

Very nice. Thanks

[@HauntedEarth]

It is a pleasure, thanks! :)

[@tectorama]

Nice to see you again Chris. Kersey is somewhere in Suffolk I haven't visited.

[@HauntedEarth]

You should get over there. It is worth the visit. :)

[@Captain_wolfman]

Another great video been here many times as just down the road from me did you do one on Lavenham?

[@HauntedEarth]

Thank you! Yes, I did a really interesting show on Lavenham a few months previously (well, October ish, last year. :)

[@tonymcnamara9368]

England once had great marshes too, until they were drained for either farming, or building. Then people wonder why so many places are prone to flooding.

[@HauntedEarth]

Exactly, you hit the nail on the head there, Tony. :)

[@richardcurant454]

I'm not sure but I think that the lane with the washing place was used in the 1968 film Witchfinder General.

[@HauntedEarth]

I will look for this, Richard. Thank you! :)

[@richardcurant454]

[@lemfarba4827]

Kersey England - where you can go back in time..... literally.

[@Captain_wolfman]

The Apache attack helicopters are from RAF Wattisham. That’s a British Airbase and our British helicopters.

[@HauntedEarth]

Thank you. :)

[@Laura-ys7bx]

Could do without the music.

[@HauntedEarth]

I always listen to viewers' points on my shows, so thank you. :)

I grew up in River House Kersey, i attended the local village school. We had our lunch at the village hall and spent our pocket money at the sweet shop . the village was full of life and locals now it`s dead

[@HauntedEarth]

You are perfectly correct about Kersey, today.It is a holiday let ghost village with a handful of wealthy retired residents. River House? Wow, that is a lovely old property. Thank you for sharing.
