Old & New Blackpool: Back Streets of Foxhall by Night

[@dpld70]

Although flashing lights don't affect me in any way, the fact that you put up a warning shows just how much you care about your viewers! Absolutely respect there, Stephen 👏

[@alanthompson5609]

Yeah, good call from Stephen. I used to have photosensitive epilepsy and flashing lights would trigger my seizures. He's a top lad for sure.

[@tommyaindow6840]

Thanks for showing tram town and the old coliseum bus station. Many happy memories as the old RIBBLE buses and NATIONAL EXPRESS coaches used to come in here. I used to love standing on the corner of Rigby road and Lytham road watching the trams going out onto the prom

[@michaelspanish9738]

When in Blackpool i would recommend the Lindale cafe friendly staff and food is always nice and good prices.

[@karenbiddle1484]

Great look around

[@hazelmanship7516]

Morning hope you're well, finally caught up Stephen, thanks for the walk around, good to hear about the past in Blackpool. Be careful out there, bye for now 😊x

[@PhilBurns-oc2vg]

I like the night videos, they're a lot more atmospheric

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks Phil

[@MichaelPercy-q2p]

I don’t like those houses.

[@PhilBurns-oc2vg]

@MichaelPercy-q2p They remind me of the old fashioned beach huts

[@shirleysmith1713]

Good to see the old trams- Bolton66 my favourite. Had a ride a few times 👍🏻. Thanks for sharing 😀

[@robknorthwich]

i loved the jaggy thistle great daytime drinking back in the 90s another fave the lifeboat for thrifty doubles

[@martinwebb1681]

Thanks Stephen, some nice footage taken in the dark.

[@robbrook224]

Thank you for the update on Dale Street! It was another great video!

[@tanyacromleholme512]

Brilliant video Steve, full of interesting info and insightful updates. Thank you ❤

[@earlthebossdude3161]

Nice to see the old trams Stephen

[@paulcgburrows7267]

Brilliant m8 them walkie talkies are getting very popular Stephen

[@traceyabbott193]

Those new builds will properly be full of foreigners just arrived by boat ⛵, we have afghan neighbours just moved in near me !!, They should have good double glazing as so close to a busy road like I do ! Love your videos exploring xx

[@juliewright-v3v]

thanks Stephen for another great video

[@petervare]

Blackpool was Brilliant 40 years ago Stephan,sad now😊

[@MarkAbbott-b3w]

Fantastic Stephen happy guy fawkes my friend

[@rachellevis9909]

[@lynseyhill4625]

Your like a lovely little night owl❤always makes me chuckle when you say "just had a whiff of cannabis" 😂😂

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

@@lynseyhill4625 It’s a wonder I don’t get high from passive cannabis smoking lol 😂

[@adelemcclymont6790]

Thank you for sharing Stephen x

[@ShaunVid]

Been to many of the pubs around Blackpool, some very good places and people are friendly as well good time I love the Bloom Bar Beers refreshing mainly the Guinness plus when we go there we had a live singer on singing plus I do like the pirate bar as well relaxing

[@anthonyfeeney1210]

Looks good 👍 Anthony

[@chrisfulthorpe7006]

Lovely! Nice tour, Thx Stephen :)🥰 Oh yeah nearly forgot to mention those houses look pretty small tbh and very tightly packed together, you can probably hear everything your neighbours are doing...🤔

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

I'd rather have a property with a bit more space around it myself. The roadways are also very narrow.

[@Peter-i1f]

Evening Stephen your night videos are always great, the streets seemed very quiet as you were walking around. The new houses I personally like, they remind me of some new houses in the Netherlands. I was particularly interested in Tram Town, looks interesting and the Tower looked great in the distance.

[@janobyrne2424]

Thank you for the video and your time Stephen, love the expression the Tower Beacon of Hope . Old trams are the best not just because you can hear them coming. The Foxhall houses are pokey and too close together, not for me the noise from the road will be terrible. I like the evening walkabouts too the night vision is good. Don't forget to buy Stephens calendar they make smashing Christmas presents and a percentage of the sale will go to Brian House children charity.😊😊😊

[@burtonupontrentrailwaystod8589]

We went down the track at Blundell Street on a tram on the full system tour in September

[@Glamrockqueen]

Tower looks beautiful all lit up Stephen. All new builds are too small these days. You don't even get a decent sized garden, yet cost a small fortune.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

They are very pokey. The roads are also quite narrow.

[@johnrobertson8263]

Its a vice of mine to spend a 30 mins with you before bed. Wonderful Ste

[@paularitchie5810]

We not down until 30th dec to 3rd jan our first new year on holiday in blackpool always spend it in Scotland where we live wanted to do something different this year with kids fingers crossed hope to bump into yourself was there in April and August 3rd time lucky 😀

[@johnrobertson8263]

Pavilion cinema wow

[@jeanwalker3752]

Hi Stephen, thank you for another good walk-around video. Ive been down some of those streets before, but always in the daylight. At night time they look a bit dangerous dont they. Hate those little houses, they have no character. Take care Stephen and see you next time. Xxxx

[@peterparr3079]

When I worked at the Illuminations we did some projects with the people. We put lights up on several Streets like Yorkshire St & Bairstow St. We also put small features up on several properties on Dale St. Notice non of them are lit know but are still in position.

[@MichelleMartin-ld6zg]

Evening Stephen hope your having a happy Tuesday evening bonfire night 🌙 great video thanks for showing us round blackpool again 😊😅😂

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Hi Michelle.

[@jhudd0102]

The night time picture quality of that camera you use is brilliant. Looks great.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Thanks 👍

[@jayneshaw5247]

Great video ❤👍They don’t make houses like they used to , so small

[@johnrobertson8263]

Nice vid of jaggy thistle on here

[@lindanagle5081]

Was out on the boat tram. Tonight.

[@ShaunVid]

Blackpool as changed so much over the years alot of new places coming up I used to know blackpool very well new builds homes and much more. I do think there going to be more houses being built. So many guest houses and hotels are going, it a shame really but things change. In certain places your seeing new face lifts.

[@iansargent1159]

Sorry not in service is twinned with Private. Buses from Leeds go there too😃, Great video as always

[@lou4tea]

Those houses look like the ones near my village they are very close together and the only worry some folk would have is neighbours knowing your buisiness lol i prefare the countryside no noise lol i close my door at night like a rabbit and thats it for me lol till next day i think theyd be quite nice inside and your really close to blackpool tower i bet your view from the bedroom would be facinating or if you had a loft window all those lights but i think if i had the choise to live anywhere besides south wirral blackpool would be it i love it 💯👍❤️

Hi Stephen 🎉

718 is known as a Millennium car as it was one of a few that were done up in the late 90's/early 2000's.

[@robknorthwich]

[@streetlife8461]

Hi Stephen, I knew you wouldn't disappoint, after not seeing any Kamikaze ebike riders on your end of the season video, but tonight at 9.52, this one has got to be in the Top Ten of them all, complete with sound effects lol. I'm beginning to wonder whether you have an arrangement with the MacMaster to speed past you, when filming, so he can get his 5 minutes of fame ? Lol ❤

[@ScottMcculloch-ei3og]

The Jaggy Thistle was a brilliant pub it was a shame it didn't last long when it relocated to Queen Street. I don't think it quite captured the same atmosphere as the original establishment.

[@junelaw4162]

Evening lovely site of the tower they look very small those noddy houses !! Personally I would not like to live there where are their cars going to park? Till the next one 😊

[@kkrispy2009P]

Hi di hi June xx

[@junelaw4162]

@ Hi De Hi Kkrispy 😊

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Parking looks really tight June, even though a lot of the properties have garages/car ports.

[@racheljohnson9687]

All of those Edwordian or Victorian terraced properties were all built with the annexes attached the length of them depended on the amount of floors. The council allowed people to add to the original annexes.

[@heathercoonan9180]

Be careful Stephen out on your own on a dark night don't want anything to happen to you

[@paulbinks2552]

Regarding the buildings with scaffolding the first used tWindmill cafe and net to it was a glass blowing shop let your viewers know also further on where the York Street cafe is right opposite was the orginal York Strret cafe who did a great jam sponge

[@g7eit]

New housing is all the same, built cheaply, tiny shoeboxes that are massively overpriced.

[@SusanStanton-qt3nj]

I wouldn't like one of those new builds, especially the one with the lamp post right outside,and that flashing light on the vape shop,mind you it probably won't be there long

[@stephendonkin5497]

Must be lots a cannabis in Blackpool Stephen 😮

[@RB-jq6gh]

Did that Home Bargains use to be Somerfields about 20 years ago?.

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Yes, it was originally a Kwik Save when it first opened.

[@lesleymcclune3637]

How many trams has Blackpool got

[@scarystardust6095]

😆 I read that as 'tramps'... sorry.

PS Dave (rip)

Dave wasn't a crank!

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

Sorry pal.

[@woodsmic]

How many videos can you make of Blackpool?

[@imogenharrison3432]

It just looks rough and run down to be honest. It's not a great advert for the town.

[@scarystardust6095]

The mayor should really be on top of that...

Hi. I hope u don't mind me asking (I'm born and bread Blackpool as well, revoe for ever) . what area do you live in? Do you have a big house? Because you have something to say about every house. Just wondering. Hope you don't mind. Anyway I'm going to do videos a new you tube site called Walk on the REAL dark side of Blackpool and I'm going to film everything about how it really is - and film it all while talking to everyone instead of watching across the road just listening to my boring voice In the rain filming from a distance. Good camera thoe x Good work thoe !!!

Oh my goodness, this person sounds very jealous & bitter. Try learning how to spell!

[@AWalkontheWildSideBlackpool]

@@rogerpicklesworth1402 Thanks Roger. My Aunt H, who was a teacher & expert in shorthand, would have had a field day with the shocking grammar in that comment by Anna Billing. I had a pretty crap education at $hitty Palatine School, but at least I can string a sentence together better. Now, after 25 years self employed in business, and also an award winning photographer, I became a professional content creator on KZbin, so I didn't do too bad.
