I absolutely love your narration! Very informative and well done. I’m a long time subscriber and wish you success with your channel!!! ❤🇺🇸

[@melissaamyx2196]

By far you are one of the best KZbin channels out there!

[@lindamccaughey6669]

Agree

[@MemorySeekers]

Thank you, so kind! *BLUSH* ☺

[@snoopybluejeans]

I second that.

[@rondriggers2755]

Your videos are so informative and your narration takes the reader back in time to imagine life long ago. Thank you

[@MemorySeekers]

Thank you, we try hard to find the history to make it more interesting.

[@Annie4Always]

Another charming & rustic Castle with a fascinating history! As well as, such a cute & quaint wee Village! Thank you for sharing!

[@nicted9308]

Thanks guys for more great memories. This is where my mum and dad first met and it’s a special place for our family and spent many weekends here. You can hire a boat and row so far down the river and if you are into golf Warkworth has a nice little golf course. The beaches are second to none and one can walk for miles along the beach. It’s not the best standing castle but never the less steeped in history. Cheers

[@MemorySeekers]

Glad we stirred the memories. Wish we had, had a better day weather wise and more time. We packed to much into the day but you live and learn! Our first time there so you never know what to expect.

[@brandieo6165]

Wow! I could of spent the entire day just exploring the castle! What a fun trip!🙂

[@MemorySeekers]

A lovely place to visit with a lot going for it. What with the beach the village and the hermitage as well as the castle! Indeed a day trip easily!

[@UntappedShesources]

I think the rain was a lovely addition to this video I love the ambience

[@MemorySeekers]

I don't mind the rain sometimes, although it can make it a bit gloomy in certain videos. We just had to much of it that week sadly.

[@AdrianeStevanov]

Your series is one of the best there is and one of my favorites, thank you!

[@MemorySeekers]

Thank you so kind! ☺

[@debsbennett5632]

Had forgotten how vast that castle is. Great filming as usual

[@MemorySeekers]

It is pretty big, not quite on the scale of Bamburgh but certainly a more intact ruin.

[@pierre-ig1dj]

If I never make it to Europe I will at least have your most excellent video’s to enjoy and view the rich heritage and overview of places I would love to visit 😊

[@MemorySeekers]

Ah I hope you do make it one day!

[@RedStickHistorian]

Thank you for another magnificent castle and village tour. The stonework at the castle is incredible and I enjoyed seeing both its remains and the fortified bridge. I eagerly await next week's video.

[@MemorySeekers]

It is a very sweet village, and we too really liked the bridge. Amazing that its so old and was still used until the 20th century!

[@neusamenezes5146]

This vídeo looks like a dream for me! Thanks again for this memorable vídeo!!!🙋🏻‍♀️👏❤️‍🩹🙋🏻‍♀️🇧🇷

[@MemorySeekers]

Our pleasure!

[@RichardFelstead1949]

Thanks again for sharing your journey. All the best from Australia.

[@MemorySeekers]

Thank you Richard!

[@SpanishEclectic]

You had me at 'rainy castle ruins'. I love that bridge, with the observation corners out of the main walkway. I visited England many years ago, coming from dry, hot, windy Southern California in the fall. All of the green and mossy brick/stone felt like a respite. Wet old stone has an interesting smell, different from cement or blacktop (tarmac). Smells like history. Cheers, guys!

[@lorrainerichardson3280]

So old yet still solid in foundation, The curved walls and the doorways, the construction is amazing. Thanks as always, love this series.

[@MemorySeekers]

Its amazing they had the skills to create it! Not possible these days.

[@neusamenezes5146]

My dear Memory Seekers! You are the best! I loved this new video and I'm very grateful for you share! Today is a cold and rainy day here and i'm more happy after seeing your vídeo! Blessings,🙋🏻‍♀️🇧🇷

[@lindamccaughey6669]

Brilliant video thanks guys. What a beautiful place. Wouldn’t mind living in the castle. Thanks so much for the history you are sharing too. Loving it. Thanks for taking me along. Please take care

[@MemorySeekers]

Well it would need a little work before you could Linda! ☺ It was very damp and cold inside.

[@lenepedersen5506]

I found your channel few months ago. Till now this is the most amazing castle I've seen. As a new subscriber I'm glad I still have many videos to see 🥰

[@MemorySeekers]

Welcome aboard! Yes you do have many to catch up on! Enjoy ☺️

[@trelizaberkeley9973]

Excellent .

[@bmoran1795]

It’s fantastic brick work when you can see all these arched ceilings

[@paulinecheng3004]

HELLO! 👋🏻 ANOTHER GREAT VIDEO OF ENGLAND VILLAGE. ENJOYED MUCH WATCHING THE VIEWS OF THE VILLAGE. THANKS. 🤗👍🏻🍒💖💯🐳

[@MemorySeekers]

Thanks so much, so glad you enjoyed watching. It really is a charming place.

[@karin5878]

Wunderbar, herzlichen Dank , ich liebe solche Videos 🙏

[@NancyHooper-i9r]

Another fantastic video, love the castle tour and the beautiful village. This is another great series, thanks for sharing your travels.

[@MemorySeekers]

So pleased you are enjoying the series! ☺

[@bronte826]

We watch every episode and have thoroughly enjoyed them. It's got us thinking of future trips. I've really enjoyed the Northumberland series since my grandfather's family came from there. It's nice to see where my family came from. Thank you Simon and Will!

[@JonathanBacon-y1u]

Walkworth is fantastic. Great alternative to Alnwick. Car park close to the entrance and great shows for adults and children put in. Loving your KZbin channel. thanks for the enjoyment!

[@MemorySeekers]

It certainly is a lot quieter than Alnwick. I am editing that video as we speak! I have to say Alnwick was amazing and we cant wait to get that video completed. So glad you are enjoying the channel. Thanks for watching.

[@amherst88]

So appreciate your giving us the opportunity to visit so many fascinating places in the UK that we would never see otherwise❤

[@MemorySeekers]

Our pleasure to share our travels. The same for us with many places in the world we will never make it too!

[@iwonaszmid3805]

Anglia,to piekny kraj. Pełen niespodzianek. Za każdym zakrętem jest jakieś stare,wiekowe domostwo z przedziwną historią.❤

[@MemorySeekers]

Cały czas odkrywamy wiele miejsc, o których istnieniu nie mieliśmy pojęcia. Myślisz, że znasz swój kraj, ale jest tak wiele miejsc, które musimy jeszcze odkryć!

[@SmallWonda]

You have been busy - but there really is so much to see in Northumberland - but you've crammed in some wonderful spots! Been excellent - just wish I could taste some of those delicious local treats - I still long for Cranston's sausages! And you've been some places we missed, I do hope you get to return in better weather!

[@MemorySeekers]

We crammed in to much on day 2 really. It was a bit exhausting but our only chance to see that part of Northumberland. When you only have 5 weeks a year holiday and you want to go abroad as well, you have to really make the most of it!

[@AbidAlhaleemhafiz]

Thank you for Simon ⚘and will ⚘👍❤❤

[@MemorySeekers]

☺👋

[@brianbeales6520]

I live in Warkworth, a pretty township in New Zealand. As in all New Zealand the history is young for the European settlers, Your Warkworth like all of the UK is much more involvedand deep in history. I can't trade with the UK WW I like the warmer climate but love all historic UK.

[@MemorySeekers]

I had no idea there was a place with the same name in New Zealand. I mean I know there are plenty that do have the same name but would not have expected it to be Warkworth! Very interesting.

[@juliagardner9750]

I love the way you video in all weather's and add an extra layer of perspective to the places.An most informative and very interesting commentary-thank you Simon and Will👏👏

[@aaax9410]

Great vid love that the music is'nt to loud :) perfect

[@MemorySeekers]

Good to hear!

[@Mimikatun-g3q]

[@MemorySeekers]

Our pleasure! We loving bringing them to you!

[@harshap7224]

Beautiful video 😊 imaging the extraordinary castle while the ruins itself are so captivating with so much greenery all around, village views are perfect.. thank u for sharing

[@tabir6071]

Wonderful place

[@EstanabintabasharEstana]

So nice village I love this 😍

[@andrewmaloney837]

Thank you men. Not sure it's the right niche but if anyone's rightfully obsessed with ultra in-depth British and Irish history I strongly recommend Schwerpunkt's relative series. Keep up the amazing work

[@ellapun6962]

I only know a little english I read it slowly 20 minutes video is fit me Thanks for the work

[@MemorySeekers]

You did very well. Thank you for the comment!

[@joenperkins2138]

Enjoyed this weeks video. Looking forward to next week. I have heard some on utube call it the hungry monster. Do you feel that sometimes? I know it is a lot of work. But very much appreciated. Hugs and blessings ❤

[@MemorySeekers]

Yes it certainly wants you to post all the time. It can get a bit much but we take breaks from time to time and will probably have a few weeks off after this series!

[@joseraimundomarques8735]

Hello Simon / Will that was wonderful the size of that castle was amazing great video thank you.

[@MemorySeekers]

Thank you for watching as always. It can be hard to make ruins look interesting! ☺

[@nabilaafrinszone6782]

Your videos are so informative

[@MemorySeekers]

Thank you!

[@tabbyskitchenandtips848]

❤. Awesome video. Nice old age , showing so much that I 💕 love I London , Tower Hamlet School 🎒 the teachers used to take us to some places. Now I'm in Pakistan. Everything shown , is lovely 🌹

[@KamrunNahar-q4k]

So nice video

[@SaraMercer-v6i]

How are there any stones left underground? Everything must have been quarried to build these massive structures and villages. It amazes me how much hard and heavy labor was accomplished.

[@MemorySeekers]

Yes we could never achieve anything like this today!

[@RifatAkondo-j4q]

Gorgeous

[@magicxiao]

Nice 👍

[@heinpereboom5521]

Beautiful to see, too bad about the wet weather. This castle is huge compared to the small castles in the Netherlands, haha. Thanks for the beautiful images.

[@MemorySeekers]

It was a shame, we had too much rain that week sadly!

[@EfUchyEfuchy]

So nice

[@KanizFatemaSuchi-e9n]

Wow it's great

[@MdMominul-g4o]

[@zahidpasha145]

Informative video

[@johnharney6548]

Thanks again lads , much appreciated

[@MemorySeekers]

No worries! 👍

[@crsabbirff9215]

Amazing

[@kellydooling]

thank you for doing such wonderful videos on places most channels don’t cover. love memoryseekers!

[@MemorySeekers]

Thank you so much! We do try to get to more than just the usual tourist places. Our first time in Northumberland and we will be back for more!

[@kellydooling]

@@MemorySeekers This area is on my next England itinerary (coming from across the pond), so your videos are extremely helpful.

[@HarryVannest]

Thanks very much for enduring the wet weather to share another great video.

[@MemorySeekers]

Our pleasure!

[@jonyakter9078]

very nice

[@fernandomilicich8160]

Thanks a lot. Greetings from Argentina

[@MemorySeekers]

You are welcome!

[@cherylrayes8015]

Ahhh a great start to my Sunday morning and the first day of spring. What a lovely place! Once again youve given us a delightful journey, I love being an armchair tourist looking at the places you show us which, short of winning a lottery, Im never going to see in person. ❤ cheers Cheryl

[@MemorySeekers]

First day or Spring. I wish it was here. We need to rerun this horrible spring and summer. I cannot believe its almost over and autumn is upon us!

[@iansuehooper7542]

They could certainly build big in days of yore! Fantastic stone work on this castle. After seeing this endearing village, it would seem that there aren’t any duds in Northumberland. Thanks again guys, sounds like you worked up quite a sweat!!

[@MemorySeekers]

It was a very long day! They could never build something like that again today!

[@cannyexplorer5357]

We went by bus from Amble as parking in this village was a nightmare. Loved the castle.

[@MemorySeekers]

I can imagine it can be, not a great deal of space. We used the English Heritage carpark as we are members and then later the village was quieter as it was closing time. Good idea on the bus!

[@baddaphakigor3976]

Your videos very nice

[@jeffr7275]

Great video guys!

[@MemorySeekers]

Thank you!

[@nuwairan-k8c]

[@AkondoMiya-z8r]

Nice

[@fairwfriend]

The commentary and education was wonderful. The walking portion of Warkworth was well worth the walk! Any ideas on how people afford to live in the village these days and if anyone is looking to adopt? Thanks for the three village tour!

[@patriciadiaz8316]

Me pregunto cuánto tiempo se habrán demorado para terminar éste tremendo castillo , todo en piedra con tantas habitaciones . Muchas personas trabajarían en él , me imagino el frio de las habitaciones . Era otro mundo !! Saludos de Chile Muy lindo trabajo , felicitaciones.

[@MemorySeekers]

El castillo fue construido y modificado durante 200 años. Ciertamente habría tenido cientos de personas trabajando en ello. ¡No es algo que pueda construirse hoy! ¡Asombroso!

[@TamiaJahanTonne]

English village 😮

[@aly9422]

I think your videos are excellent. Well photographed, well narrated. But not pretentious. Keep the good work up. From a geriatric ex- pilot who loves cycling England.

[@MemorySeekers]

Thank you very much! So kind.

[@sajidbay5567]

Good

[@Social-post]

Hello.Prive🖐👍

[@sandiandgregh]

What a fantastic castle! We love exploring a ruin more than restored or renovated castle and that one looks fabulous. 🏰

[@MemorySeekers]

It certainly is worth a visit! It can be hard to make a ruin look interesting but the history tells the stories!

[@francinebarr1204]

❤❤

[@suzannecrum9702]

💛💛💛💛💛

[@desertpriere]

I can't imagine having to haul stones to build it in that cold, rainy weather. They really suffered to build the castle. RIP

[@isabellemenez5704]

💜

[@gabehorn52]

Looks like it would be worth a wark

[@MemorySeekers]

Indeed 😜

[@SamimUsman-b5u]

Nise

[@abcdjkx]

Not sure I'd enjoy climbing up that hill and down in Warkworth every day. Good exercise though no doubt.

[@MemorySeekers]

Oh it was not too bad. Not that steep.

[@stevebradley704]

Once had a 12 hour session in the Mason's Arms. We slept in a bunker on the golf course. 😂

[@MemorySeekers]

😂

[@arslongavitabrevis5136]

Thank you very much for the video. Just a question, the town of Warkworth looks nice, clean and prosperous. How is that possible? Do they live off the land? Does the town receive many tourists? I have just seen today some awful towns in the North East of England which never recovered from the closure of mines or shipyards and that left me a bit depressed, therefore to see a small but prosperous town like Warkworth surprised me. Regards.

[@MemorySeekers]

The main focus of the village will be tourism now and it does get busy. As you say many towns and villages have been unable to recover from industries that employed the entire local workforce. It appears that only the ones that have the ability to draw in tourists, like a castle or historic village have been able to reinvent themselves. Of course other factors like government investment, the closure of many of the railway networks to these sorts of places by beeching also play a role in they have not developed.
