Early Morning Walk During Heavy Rainfall in the Village of Compton Abdale

So, today we are out and about walking in the Cotswold village and parish of Compton Abdale which is located in Gloucestershire, England. The village is located about 4 miles west of Northleach. According to the 2011 census the village has a population of 125.
At the top of a very steep hill is located the Church of St. Oswald's. The church dates back to the 13th century. It is decorated with Gargoyle Heads.
A pretty little brook flows through the village which emerges from a crocodile head, due to the heavy rain on the day of this walk there is a very good flow of water gushing from the head. The brook eventually joins The River Coln.
It was after this walk that the new camera started fogging up on the inside of the lens, which is seen on the next walk (Airing on Sunday 26th Nov).
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the USA.
Thanks for walking with me.

What a lovely occurrence on our Thanksgiving morning in the USA, to find that a new walk was posted- and a rainy one, at that! (Nothing against sunshine, but there is a special pensive and peaceful quality about rainy days). We delivered some Thanksgiving dinners this morning and will have a meal with family later, but in the interval at home, watching this pleasant walk is such a nice addition to the holiday! I thank God for His blessings, and one of the multitude is the beauties of nature- which are so wonderfully featured and displayed on your walks. It’s also fun to see an area so far from home, and learn facts about it. Thanks for posting this. (With all the wet walks you are filming, I hope you have a good pair of rain boots- or “wellingtons”, as I believe they are called in the UK). : )

Hi, Janet. Happy Thanksgiving to you & your family. Thank you so much for taking time out to join in on this walk on your special day. I am really glad you enjoyed the walk. No ‘Wellies or Boots’ on this walk just an old pair of sneakers which have seen better days! Enjoy your Thanksgiving meal. All the best to you all. OAAW

You know what, with so much travel vlogs on Internet, most of them are made only to show off and boast themselves, I'm glad that someone actually enjoy where they are, thank you 😊

[@OutandaboutWalking]

Good to hear from you. Thank you very much for your kind feedback. I do very much enjoy walking in the Cotswolds and also being able to share the walks is a truly great pleasure indeed. All the best to you.

[@gloriat75]

Love your videos. England is so beautiful. I’ve had a life long dream of visiting England. I wish I had done it when I was younger and the world was safer. 😢 At 75 I live vicariously through your videos and British streaming channels. I’m obsessed with all things England! ❤️

At about 19 minutes in, I loved the footage of the drainage system running alongside the steps. What a great idea, and so pretty too. I love drainage. I live on a farm and have to manage my own drains. I’m always keen to see how other people do things.

[@OutandaboutWalking]

Hi, Alison. Thank you very much for your comment. We would certainly be in a pickle without drainage. The water sounds were very relaxing as the water was gushing out. Plenty more walks coming soon :). All the best to you.

[@georgiafrancis9059]

Just took a walk with you through Cotswold. So relaxing. There's nothing like this here in California. Now, I'll take a nice, peaceful walk in the rain with you.

[@OutandaboutWalking]

Hi, Georgia. Thank you very much for your comment. The Cotswolds certainly has a flavour all of its’s own but in a nice way. All the best to you & Happy Thanksgiving.

[@cappuccinobean2442]

Hello. Thank you very much for your comment, feedback and support. This was filmed on a fairly new camera which is the DJI Pocket 3. All the best to you.

[@userxpf9ti]

I so enjoy these walks you take us on! They are beautiful, peaceful and relaxing. I'm in Australia and we are currently having a heatwave of 37-40C, far too hot!

[@OutandaboutWalking]

Hi, Angela. Thanks very much for getting in touch. It is good to know that you are enjoying these walks. Oh my, that is very hot! I can imagine a walk like this would be a visually welcoming relief at this current time. Hope it cools down soon for you. Thanks for your support. All the best to you.

[@gloriagarrison8055]

I have enjoyed this site so much. The real thing! This reminds me of the areas around Indiana and Ohio, where I have spent years doing what I call "camera wanders " with my little PowerShot. Love all of this . Montanan homesick in Cincinnati Ohio. All the best out there and blessings on your holiday season. This has been the best start 🎄🇺🇸 12:55

[@OutandaboutWalking]

Thank you very much for your lovely comment :). Your support is greatly appreciated. All the best to you.

[@LynHanson-pb4vw]

Wonderful. Love this area, walked here many, many times. Love it especially the crocodile, great on sunny days for refreshing hot feet. Thank you

[@hellie_el]

a lovely rainy walk. reminded me of a singer on an episode of the two ronnies who sang a song with the words pitter patter all through it. really love all the details you stop to look at. hope your camera is feeling better. :)

[@OutandaboutWalking]

Thanks very much Hellie. Ah, classic comedy from the 'Two Ronnies'! The camera slowly seems to be feeling better thanks. Enjoy the rest of your day. OAAW

[@hellie_el]

@@OutandaboutWalking i read somewhere you can pop your camera into a bin of silica packets and they'll suck up the humidity. just in case you haven't tried that yet. ❤️

[@OutandaboutWalking]

@@hellie_el that’s a great tip, thanks Hellie :)

[@hellie_el]

@@OutandaboutWalking hope it helps. :)

[@OutandaboutWalking]

@@hellie_el definitely gonna try it :)

I appreciate your efforts I love the scenery especially because I can’t travel It’s perfectly recorded So peaceful I hope your channel continues growing You deserve it

Thanks for going for a walk in the pouring rain so we can enjoy it in comfort! Beautiful village.

Good to hear from you, Liz. Absolutely my pleasure, glad you are enjoying the walk :). All the best. OAAW

[@michaeltichael]

Hi OAAW. The algorithm brought this video to my feed and I was excited to think you made a new video. I revisited this refreshing walk and though it's been 10 months ago, I wanted to wish you well. All the best!

[@OutandaboutWalking]

Morning Michael. It is so good to hear from you! Sorry the ‘algo’ got your hopes up! This was a super refreshing walk in such a beautiful little village. How time flys by! I have been out and about recently recording lots of new content which is at nighttime and mostly in the rain. Just need to work on the soundtracks now and get them finished so uploading can resume once more and which should become consistent again :) I will be making a community post in the near future explaining things in more depth. Hope you and the family are all doing well. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your continued kindness & support. All the best. OAAW

[@michaeltichael]

@@OutandaboutWalking Great to hear from you again. Sounds like a plan. We sure will be eager to get any updates. In the meantime safe travels and take care OAAW.

Quite the wet and soggy walk. Cold and windy too? Hopefully you wore your wellies. Otherwise you could get a socks soaker. Was a very pleasurable walk. Liked the waterfall down the stone steps, unique and ran into the stream by the roadside. Lots of bright red berries, colourful trees . Was a heck of a runoff/ waterfall at the crossroads! Enough from this chatterbox, until next time.lol. Greetings and good wishes from your YT Buddy.!😊 in Canada 🍁🇨🇦🍁 God Bless and Take care.

[@OutandaboutWalking]

Thanks Bruce :). It was a bit windy at times and cold throughout as I had already got wet cycling into the village prior to filming. I was glad to get back home & changed. No wellies tho, just an old pair of sneakers :). Glad you enjoyed this soggy walk, I’m sure I will have another wet one for you before too long. Have a great weekend, from your OAAW buddy in the 🍂 🇬🇧 🍁

[@helencarter9511]

Love all the old houses and stones fences that have survived hundreds of years. So quiet and peaceful. Where I live is fairly new and modern and rush, rush, rush. Its fun to think about all the different eras that have lived there and imagine what their transportation was like and the clothing of the times

[@OutandaboutWalking]

Hi, Helen. It is lovely to hear from you. It is fascinating when you think about what it would of been like all those years ago...it really feeds the imagination :). Have a nice weekend. Thanks. OAAW

[@michaeltichael]

A very lush and refreshing walk, OAAW. You outdo yourself with these videos. I see Compton Abdale is surrounded by fields and farmland, it would make a great route for a bike ride through the countryside. I hope you had a warm cuppa afterwards. Thanks for taking us along and I hope you have a great day

[@OutandaboutWalking]

Hi, Michael. Thank you 😊. Funny you should mention about a bike as I did cycle into this village for the walk, I got soaked through before I even started filming but yes a bike is a great way to take in the countryside. Have a good weekend ahead. All the best. OAAW

[@michaeltichael]

@@OutandaboutWalking Hi OAAW. I hope you had on some good, waterproof attire on that ride in to Compton Abdale. In my opinion a stationary perspective of the countryside on either a bicycle or car wouldn't be as appealing as drone shots. Granted drones do cost quite a pretty penny and the file sizes are quite cumbersome. Just my thoughts though. Hope you're having a great weekend.

[@deborahanderson6546]

With the Rain, the audio sounds like - a needle on a record, with no music.

I love how you stop to look at things like red berries on a tree branch or a minuscule pumpkin on someone's porch. However, when we get to a fork in the road and I say, "Oh look!Turn left.", I wish you would mind me. (My cat wonders who I'm talking to.) THANK YOU for all the beautiful walks.
