An excellent video with great production values and it certainly captures the essence of the place. I first visited this museum as part of a school trip in the early 1970s as a six year old. It made a deep impression on me. The museum was quite young then, having been founded in 1967, but not opened properly to the public until about 1970. In those days it was called the Weald and Downland Open Air Museum. The number of buildings was about twenty or so. Today it can boast more than fifty and a superb entrance museum and cafe/restaurant complex. Well worth a visit if you are in the area.

I was thrilled to see this when I went to KZbin today! I visited the museum maybe about 20 years ago, on a very hot midweek day when there were very few people about, and just wandered around, with not a lot of information or direction. It was smaller then, but I remember some of the buildings, such as the market hall, schoolhouse, and farm buildings. Not all were open. I went by Southdown bus to the nearest village and walked to the museum--I think it was called just the Downland Museum then? One thing I found most interesting was a building under repair or reconstruction--a lath-and-plaster old home, possibly medieval. No one was about, so couldn't ask for information! Very interesting to get a close-up look at how these walls were built. I highly recommend a visit--this museum is, in my opinion, up there with the very popular (and crowded) and undoubtedly better funded ones I've visited in the U.S.A., such as Historical Williamsburg (Virginia) and Old Sturbridge (Massachusetts). The counryside around is very beautiful and unspoiled. Your commentary was most interesting, and the quality of the video excellent. Thank you again!

Scolding Room at the Dairy. Scalding was used to kill bacteria and prolong the keeping of milk before pasteurization. Scalded (slightly cooked) milk makes the bread rise better than raw milk. Pot cheese/farmer cheese requires scalding to create the curds. In yogurt making, cultures are added after milk is scalded and to prevent other bacteria from competing and to control texture.

My favourite is the Wealdon house. The fire is in the middle of the floor and the smoke goes through the roof. The dining table is reminiscent of the Last Supper. It is long and everyone sits on one side, on a long bench against the wall, in order to be served. There is a buttery. To the right of the door as you go in. Not for butter but for beer butts. There are two sets of stairs as the upper floor is divided by the main hall. The decorative wooden walls are all smoke stained.

Once again you have instructed me and charmed me. Although much older I am reminded of my recent visit to Williamsburg in Virginia. Thank you for another great vlog.

England is an enchanted land. One of the most beautiful countries on the planet. So much came from this small nation....... and was given to the whole world.

This is wonderful! I love seeing so many buildings of historic significance (they don't all have to be 'stately mansions', do they?) that have been saved and made available for everyone to see. The location is perfect, and the fact the buildings are arranged like a town, maintains the feeling of earlier times. Each building is special, but I loved the recreated 13th century house. Thank you for all of your inspiring videos!

Yes they have really displayed them well, as you say like a village. Beautiful place to spend a day roaming the countryside.

Didn’t see the oxen or horses it was during covid so many of the live attractions were not running.
