SEARCHING The River Of An ANCIENT Medieval Bridge

Join us as we embark on a magnet fishing adventure to explore the mysteries hidden beneath the tranquil waters of the last remaining fortified river bridge in Great Britain. This iconic bridge, boasting its majestic gate tower standing proudly upon its structure, is not just a testament to architectural brilliance but also a treasure trove of history waiting to be unraveled. As we cast our magnetic lines into the depths below, will we stumble upon medieval artifacts, remnants of ancient battles, or perhaps lost treasures once guarded by the fortress above?

Safety first, glad to see a 😊walking bridge with no cars!

[@kellyrager3456]

Big Love back at all of you. Thanks again.

The decorative twisty find could have hung on a wall and held a candle.

[@Darrell_hills]

The long silver looking buckler is an old radiator earthing clip I think.

[@KathiErb]

Could the twisted metal be a candle holder? I just started watching this channel and love it. Thank you for the history you share.

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Thanks Kath and welcome 🥰

[@stuartfletcher2378]

Thank you 🤗

Steve - That twisted piece you found looked like a home made musical note !!

[@pauldoyle9709]

I’m gutted ! I only live a few miles down the road from Monmouth. As an avid fan I would love to have popped down and say hello. I often get fish n chips from the chippy next to the bridge and sit down on the steps by the river bank to eat them. As the river drops you can easily paddle around in there from one side to the other and there are large stones which I reckon would nicely capture small finds. I’ll keep my eye out for your beanie Mike 😃

[@DCHoosier62]

What an amazing bit of history on that bridge. So beautiful.❤ thank you for sharing this with us. 😊

The alleged escutcheon is a Plane blade, the telephone/aerial is part of an Edwardian bed frame, although bent and the triangular shaped piece of cast iron, is part of a Victorian box iron.

Thanks Michael 🤗

[@daveparnell3886]

The pointy piece of steel that she thought was off a door looks like it could be off a portcolous like the metal gate that slid down from the top in front of the wooden doors.

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Thanks for the info Dave 👍

[@daveparnell3886]

@@mariecollinspeakydippers no problem,it's just a guess not saying I'm right....lol

Hello Peakys👋🏻

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Hi Carol 🖐😁

[@billrobbins5874]

Sincere condolences to you all for the loss of Queen Elizabeth. She was a stable queen who reigned a good long time. Interesting history about the bridge. Church built in the same era? Always most interesting and unique finds. That button was so intricately designed. Best wishes to you all in your future finds. Appreciate you sharing your videos with us all. ♥️👍

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Thanks Lori 🤗

[@AzBats0221]

You’re certainly pulling up fixings from the structures which used to be on the bridge. One of the pictures of the bridge has a great example.

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Thanks 🤗

Really Beautiful Bridge!

Great video you made me laugh Marie when you was trying to get up by the river hope you was ok x

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

All good Susan thanks 🤗

[@ArleneKing-ob7xr]

Hi Marie and Glen

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Hi Arlene 🖐😁

[@robyntaylor7476]

I learnt to drive around Monmouth and in those days you could drive over that bridge, so this video has been extra special to watch. I've got an area for you to research on, try looking up Monnington on wye bridge. It's about 9 miles north of Hereford and although the bridge in no longer there, in its day was a vital crossing. Or how about the old wooden toll bridge at Whitney on wye. The curly bit that Steve found early on in the video is a stand to hang lamp from.

[@bobrodgersonsmostlymotorcy9265]

The escutchion looks more like a plane blade to me.

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Thanks for the info 👍

[@alisonplant4151]

Yes it was our mistake but thankyou for saying

[@mankymax117]

Monmouth mentioned rahhh 🔥🔥🔥🦅🦅🦅

[@user-yr8bk9dr5o]

You guys crack me up

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

👍😁

[@sydneymartin952]

At time stamp 15.15 that triangle thing with the opening in rear is an old Iron that they would put hot rocks or coal in the opening. It's just missing the handle and little door that closed over the opening in back

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Thanks for the info Sydney 👍

[@joannebrixton2363]

❤❤❤

[@rogerjones8050]

Thank you, I thoroughly enjoyed this video.

[@andrewfunnell7635]

Great video is that curly metal a candle holderyou hang on wall maybe

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

It could certainly be Andrew 👍

[@mayhughes5429]

Hi peakys

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Hi May 🖐😁

[@cherigraham9117]

[@DCHoosier62]

@10:20, that item looks like you would set a tea cup on the flat part and the hook would hold your tea bag.

[@urbanfox53]

Enjoyed the vid guy's, by the way that spiral thing that you recovered was a Medieval candlestick holder! 👍.

[@shauncorless8965]

Was out last week tied a bit rope to a large horse shoe ,,and after 2 casts pulled out a great big foookin magnet 😮

[@rachelbest7963]

Well done, great finds , love to come with you guys when I'm not on radiotherapy, something I've always loved to do, love your vids Rachel in north Yorkshire x

[@philthycat1408]

Key hole thing at beginning looks like a worn out blade from a Stanley plane .

[@user-wt2ot1zx5b]

Awesome finds and video thanks for sharing have a great nite 😂😂😂😅😅😅

[@PeakyDippers]

Cheers Marvin

[@tonyjohnson1405]

I lived right by the bridge 😊

[@divaden47]

So many metal items!!

[@ChrisTobinSingerGuitarist]

Always enjoy your videos and your quest for history, really entertaining🙂I’m thinking the ‘escutcheon’ might be a blade from a wood plane? My first thought on seeing it.

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Thanks Chris 🤗

[@spoggys1976]

Another interesting episode, I enjoy the snippets of history you edit in. Would love to come to the UK to check out all the historic places but the cost to come from Australia is not out of my price range unfortunately

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Thanks Spoggy 🤗

[@ArleneKing-ob7xr]

Hi Mike, sorry you lost your hat

[@suegiles1779]

How come the river is brown?? Love all your energies

[@user-ri4hu2ul2x]

Glen, have you tried the fibre wheels for cleaning delicate metals up? Similar to the wire brush but made of nylon fibre and it removes crud but cos it's a lot softer than metal it won't remove the surface easily, they fit in a Dremel type tool, are universal, and best of all, cheap as...try Temu or Shein, don't eBay them you'll pay through the nose, Temu will get them to you inside 10 days, just a minimum order of £15...👍

[@user-ri4hu2ul2x]

They're made of nylon, 24 pieces for £4.98 on Temu, can't send you a pic but I've used them on copper tankards and they leave the surface matt finish, so a good buffing will bring it back to gleaming.

[@user-ri4hu2ul2x]

Insane magnet fishing 8 months ago, the lens Glen has is a cats eye lens out of the middle of the road, 100%, cos as a naughty 8 year old and curious, a couple of us dug one up on a disused road and dismantled it with brute force, only to see the history of the cats eye and its inventor on Blue Peter several days later 😂😂😂

[@tent7014]

The cartridge case could be a .455 cal Webley ?

[@Mark-xl8gg]

6.29 leaded window cross piece for fixing in the wooden fram

[@PeakyDippers]

Thanks mark

[@user-ri4hu2ul2x]

Who shoots the drone footage? They are very accomplished 👍👌

[@MeagainIA2011]

water, boats, and alcohol is a bad mix.

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

It certainly is

[@thomasrobb4045]

The 1st thing u showed the keyhole is actually off of a wood plane.

[@ArleneKing-ob7xr]

Sorry, Kristy

[@ArleneKing-ob7xr]

Hi Terri and Paul

[@martincraftsman576]

That first find is a plane blade. Carpenters plane.

[@donnasauer5462]

The spiral hand made metal might have been for a flower pot to hang somewhere.

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Thanks Donna 👍

[@howardmarshall5713]

looks like the end of a 20 gauge shot gun cartridge.

[@charjole1960]

Why throw the magnet rocks back when you will no dought pick them up again.

[@user-du8vv9pp8i]

You need to get a metal detector

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Yes we do have one 👍

[@janemcgreal6562]

Do you have a pinpoint (short range) metal detector aka a "carrot". May be useful when mudlarking.

[@shunechambers49]

i don't understand why y'all don't get ur own go pro cameras for each one of y'all so y'all don't have to keep using one camera

[@shunechambers49]

they look like pony 🐎 shoes

[@robbieallan6522]

Its a shame magnets 🧲 can't pick up none ferris metals i reckon theirs allsorts of cool coins down there you have picked a couple up in your crud so they're there.

[@mariecollinspeakydippers]

Yes I bet there is lots Robbie 🤗
