The amazing history of Robin Hoods Bay

[@chunkylover53ataol]

What an amazing culvert and fantastic story. Thank you Steve for sharing the adventure.

[@LeiceExplore]

Thank you buddy! There was no way that I wasn’t gonna bring you lot with me

[@LukeEdwards-x8c]

Love smuggling stories. This is a great video. What a find that side tunnel with the floorboards above. Large enough to store crates and lift them up through the floorboards to the houses

[@LeiceExplore]

Thank you very much, I’m very pleased you enjoyed it! I love a culvert, but don’t usually go in any with such a great story to tell!

[@sturmtigerking4263]

Such an interesting story all around a culvert! Pirates and culverts, never thought they woud go together.

[@LeiceExplore]

Cheers buddy! I know right!? It’s one way to make a culvert interesting!

[@AndyPriceVideos]

Eh up, this is a gem. Keep em coming it’s getting better and better. Well done, fascinating

[@LeiceExplore]

Thank you very much Andy. Yes, judging by the footage, I definitely enjoyed this one!

[@adrianbrown01]

What a cracking little place this is, so much history wherever you walk. It's a stunning little village, and that culvert should be named smugglers tunnel lol. Great video Steve me ode. 😊😊

[@LeiceExplore]

Thank you Adrian, I’m very pleased that you enjoyed it

[@LeiceExplore]

Yeah that place is deffo getting it again my love! A great morning spent with my bestie ❤️

[@firemon2217]

Brilliant Steve! That's the very culvert I sent you a picture of January '23. It's always been a bit treacherous in January when I've been but next time I visit I'm going up there. Here's to us Culverteers!!

[@LeiceExplore]

It’s unbelievable mate! It more than likely medieval IMO! Unbelievable scenes. And the village, well, I’m lost for words!

[@maxpickeringphotography]

Ey up me duck, that was a cracking noseh! Well done Steve, your enthusiasm is infectious! ❤👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@LeiceExplore]

Eh app our Max! Cheers buddy! I’m certainly daft lol

[@tracyhutchinson4929]

Beautiful little walk ways. So much history, gets the imagination going. Must be a bugger getting your shopping delivered tho 😂. Great video as always

[@LeiceExplore]

Thank you Tracy! Yes, it is difficult for big vehicles, as I saw when I was there.

[@gilesestram]

Shiver me timbers Steve, that Culvert was defo shivering your timbers ! There are 2 or 3 more almost identical villages along that coastal section with Becks running in to them but I dont recall any other culverts like that one. I wandered in there a time or two but wasnt on alert like you always are so I missed the side adit, wooden roof and the Rat Trap !

[@LeiceExplore]

Cheers me ode beauteh! Yeah this fully is up there with my favourites!

[@grahamgetsabout2672]

Hi Steve, wow mate what a video. The things you show us a great but you make them fantastic. I’m sure if you made a video showing me chewing gum on a paving slab I would be glued to it 😂😂😂😂😂. Sorry mate but that really was a top class video. 👏👏👏👏👏👌👍

[@LeiceExplore]

Thank you very much Graham! Now there is an idea for a video, chewing gum lol

[@eddiek0507]

A fascinating video Steve, This really is a beautiful place. Those alleyways are like mazes, you would forget where you lived after one too many! The culvert is truly amazing. The size of those stones, all laid without the help of any machinery. There is tons and tons of it. I wonder how far it had to be transported? This was a really enjoyable explore...😃👍🏻

[@LeiceExplore]

Thank you Eddie. Some of the stones are really big. They would’ve been difficult to shift. I would not be surprised in the slightest if the oldest parts of that culvert go back to doomsday times, I really wouldn’t.

[@Rich10000]

Ace video mate thanks. I can imagine you're busy most days researching places for videos to show us. Weird to see cables and drains going everywhere.

[@LeiceExplore]

Thanks Rich. I first found out about this before I even made videos. I was gonna do this last year, but the week I went away, someone uploaded their own vid lol! It was my turn this time. But on the whole, yes I do spend a lot of time looking for places to stick my hooter into. Most time is usually spent looking at old maps, but it isn’t a chore, because I love it. Thanks for watching.

[@clairharwood]

Awesome!

[@LeiceExplore]

Thank you clair

[@Dusty101uk]

[@LeiceExplore]

Cheers mate, thanks for watching. My other half came with me today, it’s our first time at Robin Hoods Bay, we’re in love with the place.

[@ConqueredAdventures]

Again, it was an amazing steve the information, and the way you tell it is spot on dude 👌 we will have to try and visit Robin Hood Bay this summer. What a beautiful place, thank you 😎👍

[@LeiceExplore]

Thank you mate! Get ya sen up theer and stick ya nose in mate. It’s a stunning little village, I ain’t seen owt like it.

[@ConqueredAdventures]

We definitely will do mate 👍

[@Elainrose]

Brilliant video been in there years ago but not as fain as you 🙂

[@LeiceExplore]

Thank you, and thank for watching

[@johnsuffill6520]

I wonder if it's any coincidence that the first building on the right hand side is a pub? Also wondering how long it has been a pub.

[@LeiceExplore]

Hi John. Great point, hadn’t thought about it, until you mentioned it.

[@johnsuffill6520]

@@LeiceExplore I've been to Robin Hoods Bay a few times and spent many happy hours in that pub. Also used to go fossil hunting on the beach to the south where I found plenty of crinoids and small bivalves. Will have to go back there one day, and this time have a look up that culvert myself. Also, subscribed :)
