Exploring Cornwall - A Walk Around St Agnes

[@daviddoble5956]

Lovely to see again. I grew up and walked around the beacon all the time. My grandfather Jim lived up the lane. Gosh how I wish I still lived here!

[@rebelroads3545]

what a lovely village thanks Richard and Mark.

[@RichardVobes]

Thanks Ricky. I must return soon. So much to see.

[@michaelsteirn4454]

Richard should have gone down to chapel porth beach. It’s a stunning place to unwind

[@kernowradio]

Trevaunance Road not Trevanance!! 🙂 Is there a Beacon 🤔🤣 Nice video of my Home Village 🏡

[@SassiLassi]

Thanks, I was going to correct him.

Grew up in St Agnes from age of 4 to 11. When I read the Poldark books, noticed St Agnes was never mentioned, but lots of places around it were, as if St Agnes was the centre.

Love you taking a stroll around a village, looks very peaceful. Thank you Mark a s Richard.

[@RichardVobes]

I love those Cornish villages. Thanks Ann.

I was dragged up in St Agnes....I was the reason for the "No Cycling" sign at the top of the Op ....opposite the white cottage.06.30.

What a wonderful and ‘typical’ Cornish village - so nice to see the weather getting better as the video progressed.

[@RichardVobes]

Thanks very much, Matt. It seems very typical of the villages in Cornwall. Lovely!

[@vestafairie]

thought you had "lost" Mark down the well.... what an amazing place! thank you, Mark!!! another great video! thank you, Richard!!!

[@RichardVobes]

The village spoke for itself really! Thanks so much for watching.

St. Agnes is amazing! So cute! Loved it! Looking forward to Poldark county. That shoud be rather fun! Wish you had time for Port Isaac (aka. Port Wenn of Doc Martin fame), but maybe on your next tour of Cornwall. Speaking of which...I noticed the same red flowers growing out of the rock walls here at St. Agnes that you see on Doc Martin. Somebody that knows flowers of England helpe out - what are they? They are very pretty!

[@MrGreatplum]

Ramibu 2 - I went to Port Issac last month; it is lovely but I would recommend that Richard goes off season very early in the morning as it gets super busy!

[@RichardVobes]

I have resisted the better known places - mainly because they are already famous and stacked with tourists.

[@ramibu239]

@@RichardVobes yes - I've heard that about Port Isaac. Like Bus loads of tourist. That would be anoying yo try & walk around while you were filming!

[@ramibu239]

@@MrGreatplum yeah if he went he would prob have to do one of his 6 AM walks to avoid hoards of tourist/fans. I love the show & would just like to see someone like Richard take their time walking through the village do as to actually see all the cottages

[@lindakane7771]

The plant is Valerian 🙂

[@jmeyer3rn]

Thoroughly enjoyed this explore. Thank you for the walk through the lovely little town.

[@RichardVobes]

It's really kind of you to say so. After our climb up the rock I thought this was a bit lame!

[@guitarlover302]

Thank you 😊 very interesting need to visit here !

[@edwardtodd9734]

Higher Bal - there is a chapel there. Bal, I think means mine. There used to be Bal maidens who worked at the mines

[@maggiew4893]

😊 Thank you for taking us through St Agnes, we have passed by it, although never stopped to visit...

[@RichardVobes]

A lovely spot to visit with fabulous countryside all around.

[@thesolitarycyclist9005]

Hearing Mark referring to the "Lynch gate" the locals obviously took their lives in their hands when they went to church!

[@RichardVobes]

I think he meant lych gate.

[@georgetimperley8906]

I did enjoy that I think I've been there, I can't remember though. It's a very nice place. Well done you two👍

[@RichardVobes]

Thanks so much - appreciate the comments.

[@downsmanmichael5841]

Valerian is the popular name of Centranthus ruber. In fact the native valerian is usually found in ditches, presumably it likes to keep its feet damp.

[@RichardVobes]

I was out filming some red Valerian only with morning!

[@hammersteve8]

I'm from St.Agnes. It's pronounced TreVAWnance Road.

[@edwardtodd9734]

Agreed

[@shaunlaverick5793]

I've been there but cant remember seeing the granite stone cross...so that was nice to see.when you said wheelkitty ..it reminded me of a place worth a visit and that's KITTY JAYS GRAVE ..Dartmoor....again a really nice video as for Poldark .here are .some locations that can be visited and was filmed in the west country for the most recent Poldark series .I wasn't that much taken by it myself...preferring the earlier Poldark www.somersetlive.co.uk/news/somerset-news/gallery/poldark-location-shoots-1805745

[@RichardVobes]

I had read the books before the new series and it was pretty close to the original. Winston Graham being a fab author.

[@julianbeesley5059]

Is this meant to be serious ? 😂

[@organicpaul]

Nice series.

[@RichardVobes]

Thanks Paul.
