Sheffield and Tinsley Canal Explore. Part 1

Sheffield and Tinsley Canal was opened 22 February 1819 and has just celebrated its bi centenary.
This is part 1 of a series of 3 videos that take you on a historical journey along the full length of the canal into Victoria Quays in the city of Sheffield

[@bombasticbuster9340]

I am very thankful for the adventures that you guide us in. I am 51 and a medically retired guy. I have been fascinated by the British canal system since my younger days and saw them on tv. I may never make it over from Arkansas to GB to see them. I love the railroad lines, tunnels, underground places thst you visit. Its been fun and a blessing to see all of it. Thanks a million! A big fan of yours.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Thanks I really appreciate your comments, I know they are so, grateful and that's great and makes all my filming worthwhile. Part 2 continues the journey but by kayak to make it more interesting, see you soon, all the best Pat

@@patrickdickinson6492 Frankly sir, you're too good for the tripe that passes for TV. You remind me of the OLD PBS when I was a kid. I'm 50 now.

I agree, I think a lot of people would like his format. I do. I used to like watching Fred Dibnah, for same reason. Interested in something that I am too, and format is much more personable than much of TV.

Hi Patrick, I am from the USA and I appreciate you doing your videos so I can see other places in the world that I will probably never see in person. I like how you film your videos and how you explain what is going on in the videos and what is going on around the areas.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Steve and thanks, appreciate your comments Pat

[@amarjeetsingh-nw4gd]

Take care of yourself...thanx a lot for posting such informative video...my best wishes for your speedy recovery

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Thanks Pat

[@lincolnshirehiker]

Really enjoyed that Pat, your one man film production is amazing. That you for taking the time to do this. I also owe you thanks for inspiring me to wild camp. This week my 12 year old lad and I went on our second camp to Kinder Downfall, still a bit nippy at night but with video's like yours around we had the knowledge to do it in comfort. Thanks again, look after yourself.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Thanks for that and glad you and your son got out camping. Kinder Downfall such a great place to camp. Thanks for watching, all the best Pat

[@jayellard489]

Another good production Pat. Informative as usual. I have just about watched all of your videos now ! Good stuff bud.

Thanks and so pleased you enjoyed my vidios, thanks Pat

[@brightspark7523]

Very interesting Pat. My old man was also in the RAF. He flew as a navigator in a Beaufighter out of North Africa during the war. They were brave men in the RAF.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Yes Maud, very brave men, and so young, thanks Pat

[@daveattrill2712]

Just come across this one Patrick. Cracking work again. I covered it -by photo - back in August from Tinsley to by Rotherham station.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Dave, yes a lovely bit of nature in the old industrial east end, I was a bit croaky back then, all OK now.......thanks Pat

[@jimpemberton]

Of your voice, I'll only say that I appreciate how clearly you speak such that even a Yank like me can understand you in some of the noisy environments you encounter. Even here you manage to speak well and I appreciate it. I'm fascinated by Britain's canal system. It's not something that's been done in the US to anywhere near the extent that you've done it there and I don't really have a point of reference for understanding the full benefit of canals in the UK. It also amazes me how there seems to be a whole subculture that's developed on the canal system. I also appreciate the WWII history connections. You all were certainly in the thick of it there. My grandfather was a Pearl Harbor vet, a Chief Petty Officer in the Navy. It was the closest we got to being attacked although Hawaii had not yet joined the United States. I was in the Marines myself and came to London with my unit to participate in the 100th Royal Tournament. I was fascinated to learn that roof of Earl's Court where we stayed was used as an air raid lookout. I enjoyed exploring that building and am kind of sad that it has been torn down.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Thanks Jim for your interesting comments, everybody of our age seems to have connections to WW2, it just shows how it affected everybody at that time. Great story and really appreciate your comments, thanks Pat

[@sjb9272]

Pat, you are an inspiration ! I so enjoy your videos of the beautiful peaks and the fabulous city of SHEFFIELD. I used to live in Crookes in Sheffield, and have since moved away and miss the place, however, thanks to you and your videos I am able to get my 'fix' of the old steel city and its surrounding countryside ! I have also been back recently and replicated the pub crawl you did a while back and consumed too many beers from abbey dale breweries in the Norfolk Arms !! All the best, Steve B

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Steve and really glad my vidios are keeping you in touch with your old city. The beer round here has certainly improved over last few years with many new breweries and micro pubs, all the best Pat

Thanks Zdenek, this video on the canal suited me while I recovered from my thyroid operation, thanks Pat

[@railjoe1]

Hey Patrick, I live near the Lehigh and Delaware canals in Pennsylvania, I have always been interested in their past and fascinated by the way the locks worked. Unfortunately most of our canals were not maintained and allowed to go dry. Your explorations of your canal systems make me envious to get on a canal boat and see where it goes. I hope that you recover from your thyroid operation and get your voice back to full strength. Your videos are always looked forward to, I never know where your adventures will lead us. Thank you.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Joseph we are luckly our canal, s are looked after and maintained and many people do use them, part 2 will see me take to the water in my kayak, should be interesting, thanks Pat

Long may the recording gods shine upon you sir.

Thanks for the reply Patrick. I'm looking forward to the rest of the canal video.

Great video photography it make you realise how much work went into building these canals. People take it for granted when they see a canal and don't think twice about how long these took to build with out todays machinery.

Take care

Hi Patrick, Just wanted to tell you that you have been the main inspiration for me getting into wild camping. I’ve been camping with the scouts since I was 6 and I’m 25 and a scout leader now but new to wild camping. I first caught your first ladybower plughole vid after I visited it last year, since then I have watched all your videos multiple times and I love all your camping and exploring videos- well anything you make really. I’ve been on two wild camps in the last month with a friend and this week I’m attempting my first solo wild camp on Kinder(sure is nice getting away from the kids!) Canals are another passion of mine so I was thrilled to hear you were making this video. You’re the only person I subscribe to on KZbin as love ALL your videos. I want to wish you a full recovery and I look forward to your future videos, all the best, Jack.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Thanks for those kind words Jack, yes I was in the scouts and loved every minute of it. Was still going on Dad's and Lads camps a few years ago and brought back many happy memories.
