Richmond, North Yorkshire【4K】| Town Centre Walk 2021

Join me for a walk around one of Yorkshire's most iconic towns of all: Richmond! Located deep in the heart of the county near to the Yorkshire Dales, this 1,000 year-old market town boasts a spectacular Norman castle, staggering riverside scenery, one of England's biggest marketplaces, countless historic buildings and even a gorgeous set of natural waterfalls!
On our walk around Richmond, we pass a number of interesting landmarks, including Holy Trinity Church (Green Howards Museum), The Obelisk, Richmond Town Hall, The Golden Lion Pub, Richmond Market Hall, Richmond Market Place, Richmond Castle, The Bishop Blaize Pub, The Barr, Friar's Wynd, The Georgian Theatre Royal, Friary Gardens, the ruins of Richmond Friary, Ryder's Wynd, Richmondshire Museum, the Victoria Drinking Fountain, the Church of St. Mary the Virgin, Richmond School, Mercury Bridge, The Batts, the River Swale and Richmond Falls.

Good evening! I hope you're having a wonderful Sunday, and I hope that a walk around the gorgeous Yorkshire town of Richmond is the cherry on top of the cake :) We talked much about Richmond's name on our walk, but one thing you might not know is that - initially at least - the town was known as 'Hindrelag', which was the name of the local townships surveyed during the Domesday Book. Of course, the Norman influence of 'Richemont' came soon after, and the rest is history!

[@user-zs2do4dr1o]

One of our favourites places to holiday.😊

[@editorinformal873]

Famous Richmond. A lot to learn

[@LetsWalkUK]

It's a famous place indeed - and certainly deserving of it! Richmond is so fascinating to visit, and I'm glad you enjoyed learning a little bit about its incredible history :) Thank you so much for watching!

[@moonshine7869]

Richmond for me is not far , a short drive to get there. Often go on a Sunday just for a wander round.

[@LetsWalkUK]

You're certainly very lucky! It's a wonderful part of the country dotted with gorgeous villages, and indeed Richmond as the centre of it all :) I hope you enjoyed this walk around the town, though I'm sure it can't quite beat one of those Sunday morning strolls! Thank you so much for watching!

[@LetsWalkUK]

You're certainly very lucky to live in such a wonderful part of the country! And particularly with a great town like Richmond nearby, you've certainly got a wonderful place for walking and further exploration as you mention :) Thank you so much for watching - I'm so glad you enjoyed the video, and I hope your visit to Richmond next June is a lovely one!

[@Grundy74]

@@LetsWalkUK cheers, we may squeeze in a visit to the Town Hall who do a lovely Sunday Lunch before Xmas👍🏼

[@LetsWalkUK]

@@Grundy74 Ooh sounds wonderful! Have a great one - and Merry Christmas too :)

[@vandalmeida.30.09]

It is a breathtaking.. my goodness..❤from🇧🇷

[@rayjackson69]

Lived locally for 20 years, many a good/ bad night out in Richmond, it's a fabulous place, castle walk holds a lot of memories for me, as does the swale and Richmond falls, 25 years since I was last there and almost identical. Thank you for the walk down memory lane 😁

[@joline2730]

Yes I enjoyed it very much - been there a few times to go to Bishop Blaize pub in the evening, so haven't got to see much of the town, enjoyed the walk down the back streets and gateways. Thanks so much for the history 👍✔💯🙂

[@LetsWalkUK]

And many thanks to you for watching! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video and an extra side to Richmond that you may not have seen before, it's a town full of alleyways and wynds that give it real character, not to mention those many pubs on the Market Place :)

[@RobertKing-mf7gn]

Thanks for a wonderful reminder of my old home town! I am now 'in exile' living in The second Richmond, by the Thames.

[@LetsWalkUK]

Ha ha that's quite the coincidence that you've moved between the two Richmonds! The 'upon Thames' is a lovely place, but Richmond in Yorkshire has a spectacular quaintness to it that makes it all the more distinctive :) Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video and that it brought back some memories of Richmond!

[@johnrichardson9771]

Superb video. Thank you so much for posting.

[@saleanawidman5223]

Thank you for another awesome video.And also thank you for letting us hear what the town sounds like. The History, sights and sounds make me feel like I’m there.

[@LetsWalkUK]

And many thanks to you for watching the video! I'm so glad you enjoyed the walk and the natural sounds of Richmond - it certainly is a gorgeous town with a wonderful atmosphere to soak in, not to mention all that stunning history :)

[@preciouspups4116]

Move there tomorrow 👍💯

[@lauraalleguen6685]

I visited Richmond about 4 Years ago now whilst on holiday.... Absolutely loved the place.. Also went into the Castle 🏰... beautiful walk as always thank you ❤️👏.....

[@LetsWalkUK]

It's certainly a place that leaves a lovely impression! The castle ruins are spectacular, as is so much of the town as I'm sure you remember well from your holiday :) Thank you so much for watching - I'm really glad you enjoyed the video!

[@beckygair2272]

Another great history lesson here Really enjoyed it

[@LetsWalkUK]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video - Richmond certainly is chock full of stunning history :)

beautiful town🦋🦋🦋 beautiful buildings 🦋🦋🦋

[@LetsWalkUK]

It is indeed! A unique town with so much to offer - particularly in its stunning range of historic architecture :) Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!

[@MDTOutdoorAdventures]

Stunning Views and video I was filming in Richmond the other week well done my freind 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@kingallison3880]

Very nice presentation. Good job.

[@philip2595]

Thank you for another most interesting walk, I've enjoyed so many now! There is a suburb called Richmond in Melbourne where I live.

[@LetsWalkUK]

And thank you so much for watching! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video - I've been to Richmond in Melbourne myself, it's a nice bit of the city as far as I remember - but indeed it owes its name to this great town in Yorkshire :)

[@juliejeanable]

I found this very interesting, and I've lived here for 30 years lol.

[@4KWalkinJapan]

The building is wonderful. I'm your fan.

[@LetsWalkUK]

Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video - Richmond certainly is full of wonderful buildings with incredible history :)

[@X-HyperlapseTravelChanne-jq7le]

Glad to see a good quality video! Big like! Returning viewer here! 👍👍

[@LetsWalkUK]

I'm glad to hear it! Thank you so much for watching :)

[@ameliaedits4515]

My hometown!

[@stephengraham5099]

An excellent walk. I was interested in the school at 21.28 and found that it was the old Grammar School.

[@LetsWalkUK]

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video - indeed you're right about Richmond School there on the banks of the River Swale, it's a gorgeous building too :)

[@dawnyWestScotland]

We visited there before love Yorkshire Very pretty

[@LetsWalkUK]

It's very pretty indeed! There's a reason they call Yorkshire 'God's Own County', and Richmond is one of the very best towns of so, so many :) Thank you so much for watching - I really hope you enjoyed the video!

[@valiantredneck]

12:32 What is that God awful sound? Great video by the way. Glad that I could turn the volume off and still understand.

[@LetsWalkUK]

Ha ha I think it must have been a shop alarm - sometimes the ambient noise isn't quite as quaint as I'm always hoping :) Thank you so much for watching, and I'm really glad you enjoyed the video regardless!
