For Andrew: Tree-hugging pups of the world unite - we've nothing to lose but our bark! That said, I once hugged a Sequoia so big around, a dozen ppl holding hands couldn't have enclosed it entirely. Some of the largest trees I've ever seen reside along the Northern Pacific Coast in the Petrified Forest, Yosemite, & other Redwood stands in CA, remnants of true giants, akin to Tolkein's Ents. I was visiting a friend in Northern California one afternoon when a huge Redwood came crashing to the ground rt across the driveway from her home, very near to where she'd just parked her new car. It literally shook the house when it fell. We ran out to see what had happened & found it lying there. It was massive & had felled several pines & other neighboring trees on it's way down. Once we'd calmed a bit, we went climbing on it to find it full of some kind of wriggling larvae (ew) which had eaten it alive from the inside, causing it's demise.

What a beautiful walk!...all the sights and sounds of Spring, and I bet the scents from the earth were amazing ~ waking up from a long Winter. I have an idea about the scissors on the church ~ there was a mentioned that Joan Wytte's ancestors were weavers, so it's a possibility a medieval cloth making (weaving) guild funded/sponsored the building of the church, hence their emblem being recorded in the stonework for posterity. Lovely uplifting video ~ thank you two so much.

Bit late watching this one this week! But what a treat! I liked the hugging trees bit..I am lucky enough to have a woodland garden with many trees in it including a huge pine tree which is about 150 years old we worked out. Just a peaceful tranquil place to be & although it wouldn't win any awards from gardening experts, we love it for all the wildlife around here, although we are missing the bluebells so it was nice to see them in your vid. Isn't it exciting when you find an isolated old church in the middle of nowhere & then find it's open too! Loved the history around it and the scissors & Jane's little headstone. Lovely walk you two.

Very good video Sarah and Andrew - Thank you. Right after watching, I went to the video of the floods in 2004 (hard to believe it was that long ago!) just to see the comparison of now and then. Believe it or not It's even more shocking!! I think for those around the world who might not have seen or might not know even - Its worth watching. Just to see how nature has restored her magnificent beauty and what a mammoth task those people had getting their homes and business back to normal again.

Kildetekst I loved this. And it is remarkable how little changes there are after 100 years. And thank you for the touching story about the poor Joan Wytte. I have visited Boscastle, but we just had a brief visit to the Whichcraft museum (which we found so eerie that we didn't stay for long) and had a lovely cream tea and the soup of the day for lunch at the Harbour Light Tea Garden before walking further on to Tintagel. It is sadly impossible to take a rest day in all the lovely villages along the path, so we are missing a lot of interesting things. So I love that you are showing all these amazing details :-) Thank you. Torunn :)
