I'm afraid you're right about The Hardy Tree. As soon as you said it was an Ash, my thought was "That's going to be a bugger to fell." It's terribly sad to see so many grand old trees affected. There seem to be a few that are resistant and younger trees are more affected, so far. Fingers crossed for this one. Loved this tour around the weird and creepy. No wonder so many Americans are currently fascinated with just how ODD we are.

The Hardy tree fell down last winter. It wasn't diseased, just old and affected by a storm the previous year. It was a stunning and much loved local feature but it simply came to the end of a long natural life

@@woofbarkyap Thank you for that. I think of that as the tree version of dying in your sleep at 101. Hope some local wood turners were able to make a something as a memorial. For the ash especially ,the Terry Pratchett quote "Don't think of it as dying, just think of it as leaving early to avoid the rush." is very apt.

She was my confirmation Saint, and we used the English translation of Audrey as my confirmation name. I don't think many people are aware of her, and she definitely isn't one of the more popular Saints. What a rare treat to hear about her! Thank you. Theresa

In answer to your question about the strangest church I’ve ever been to, I’m reminded of the time I was visiting friends, with my family, in the Netherlands. We paid a visit to the Mummiekelder (Mummy cellar) which is housed in the crypt of a church in the village of Wiuwert, in the province of Friesland. It’s a mystery how the bodies there became mummified, and I seem to remember that it was rumoured the family practiced witchcraft. It’s really interesting to visit, I highly recommend it

I’d heard of body snatching and the Resurrectionists, but I hadn’t heard of the auctioning of bodies at pubs! Very cool to learn more about this weird practice. All I had heard was of the bodies being sold to the hospitals/schools and how doctors put on autopsy “shows” for students and the curious- sounded a lot more secretive than “yeah, the body was displayed at the pub”.

I wouldn’t know, because I am Canadian and British. Saint Etheldreda’s is not a street. It is a church. The street is called Ely Place. Ely place is indeed the last remaining private street in London, as defined as having its own police force. Ely Place is the only street in London that still has Beadles. Burlington Arcade famously has Beadles, but these are for the shopping arcade, and not strictly the street. It’s awfully sad when people try to correct me in a rude way and they are incorrect themselves.

I really enjoyed that, thanks! Your presentation was great. I am a bit of a history buff and love curious tales and artefacts but lots of this was new to me. Fascinating indeed! I am from up north (Manchester) but I love London and it's history. I have subbed and will binge watch the rest of your videos.

Really enjoyed this- fantastic stuff for the countdown to Halloween! Makes me really want to visit some of these churches. Temple Church is also pretty spooky- it was built by the Knights Templar so has some weird features that appeal to conspiracy types, but is also fascinating from a historical perspective. Ely was (sort of) an island in Etheldreda's time, as it was surrounded by marshes. The fens were drained from the 17th century onward to make way for farmland. An Edinburgh trip would definitely be brilliant- ridiculous amounts of great museums, art and history there, as well as plenty of creepy graveyards.

Jessica, I read in both of my local papers (SF Chronicle & East Bay Times) about the unfortunate demise of the Hardy Tree. I knew that I saw it on your website around Halloween. I have you to thank for informing me of this magical place of Saint Pancras Old Church with its religious significance and rich historical facts. (The Beatles were photographed there in 1968 which you may not have known!) Thanks & Happy New Year from Kathleen in California

@@TheMuseumGuide definitely! If you're ever in Norfolk, I can recommend the Norwich Castle museum, which is basically the only museum on british soil I visited so far :D I had a nosebleed in front of the egyptian cat mummy, and since it's an inside joke between my friend and I that, whenever we see a cat, "the mummy accepted my blood sacrifice and is out to get me". Lol.
