Urban Wild Camp in the City of Sheffield

[@searchtripbooktripfly9386]

What a top bloke! More people like Pat in the world be a far nicer place. Keep the vidz comin!

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Thanks for kind comments much appreciated made my day thanks again Pat

And in local news: Sheffield man impales himself on fence, following a lengthy pub crawl and a final feast of fish & chips.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Matthew I still have 2 puncture marks on my wrist from when I threw my rucksack over and the weight impaled my wrist on the fence, did show it hurt though, all the best Pat

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Paul, have tried a tarp occasionally, must admit I tend to only use my bivvy bag when I know it is not going to rain especially if cooking outside etc. I tend not to use a tarp because when I look at all the gear, poles etc I might as well take a lightweight tent.I use the bivvy bag when dry forecast and sleep with to unzipped, like you say gets a bit damp if closed in. Interesting comments thanks Pat

[@IsleofWightBushcraft]

very funny :)

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Isle of Wight Bushcraft must be the beer, all the best Pat

[@rrummage3641]

Plus the idea is to be as low profile and inconspicuous as possible. A tarp (often bright blue, though yes of course you can get military greens) would have been like having a giant flag on the hilltop saying "Heeey look at me up here" Then there's the fact that the slightest amount of wind will turn a tarp into a sail :O

[@S7EVE_P]

Brilliant video, Patrick you deserve your own telly show, really good presenting style.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi and thanks for those kind comments, much appreciated hope to be out camping in October away from the city next time, all the best Pat

Hi abe I would have the beer not sure about the sausage rolls though, like the comments, thanks Pat

[@woodman9624]

Your wild camp foraging skills are astounding, Patrick. All I ever found were a few old mushrooms. Fish and chips WITH salt and vinegar. WOW!,

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Surprising what you can come across in the wilds of Sheffield, thanks Pat

[@MrPianoKnee]

This was one of the first of Pat Dickenson's videos that I watched. It was very worthwhile to re-watch this production, due to the concentration of information contained. In fact, rather than pacing back and forth waiting for Pat's upcoming masterpiece, I have been watching many of Pat's adventures again. Now that I know the outcome of the storyline, so to speak, I can focus on the information and details that Pat has selected to present. I realize that among his skillset are focus, splendid editing and willingness to make the required effort. The world simply does not have enough of this, these days. In this video I had a good laugh over the pub commentary, beginning around the 2:45 minute mark, and the description of the state one may achieve for twenty Quid in a good Chesterfield pub. Marvelous, Pat.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Thanks I really appreciate comments like this makes making the vidio all worth while. I love researching the history of my great city and then actually making a vidio out of it, thanks Pat

[@ajs2120]

Always feel good after watching Pat's videos, a true inspiration. If I lived in your part of the world I would have a pint with you!

I used to play in that quarry when I was a kid in the early 60's there was a very small pond down the bottom we used to frequent 'fishing' for sticklebacks and frogs with nets on a length of cane and a jar...…didn't need apps and smart phones in those days...

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Yeah did the same myself in the ponds on the Porter valley great times and I,am sure we learnt a lot in those early adventurous days, great to hear from someone local to the area, thanks Pat

[@bram7659]

Thoroughly enjoyed this film Pat as I have the rest of your videos. I am genuine when I say that you are an inspiration! The effort you go to in making your films is tremendous. I’ve always been an outdoors persons after a scouting start but have ended a little soft in that we moved from camping to caravaning. Well, that was until I stumbled across you! I’ve ordered a small back packing tent and starting to put my kit together for some wild camping. Please keep doing what you’re doing! You’re s star!

Interesting video,brought back many memories.As a teenager I hitchhiked every where Yorkshire,Derbyshire ,Wales, Scotland, Lakes including Ireland. Two of us.Our overnights on all our trips in towns and villages was always their local graveyards.Generally good grass.Generally a water tap always a quiet night. Great days and nights.

Only just started at looking at wild camp videos. I'm 67 now and did my first wild camp when I was 15 " 1965 " Went to Bridge Of Orchy, and wild camped by Loch Tulla. Cloth tent with tie front door, no sewn in ground sheet in those days, primus pump stove and being a Londoner never heard of the dreaded midge. Happy days, love your videos Patrick.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi John once at the campsite and fastened to my safety line felt very secure, was concerned if anybody saw me and managed to stay hidden in long grass, little bit different but still a great camp, all the best Pat

Fantastic video. You need your own show. Very educational. Imam a camper and you always teach more. Thanks.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi I suppose we are always learning new thing especially with new items of kit and also looking at each others You Tube videos, part of the fun, thanks for watching Pat

[@Campbellteaching]

I prefer the new lights as you can see the stars and the moon better.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Yes agree with you there seemed to be less light pollution with the new LED lighting, thanks Pat

[@kayjay69]

Beltin' video Pat. You're a proper authentic character. Found your videos yesterday and now I can't stop watching them. :) They're both interesting and entertaining.

Hi Kieran, great spot this, often drive past and look up there. Have thoughts of a similar camp to this so enjoyable. Hope to keep you entertained through. 2019 Pat

[@alfredlawrence3182]

Below your camp location was an old brick quarry, where my Boss Walter used to have me burning PVC cable to weigh in for scrap copper. I was an apprentice spark. This was in the mid to late nineteen sixties. Nice documentary Pat-take care on your adventures.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Alfred yes I had read about the brickworks, although I never saw it. Always nice to hear local stories like this, I was born in 1955 so just a child when you were a apprentice, nice to talk to you, all the best Pat

Yes a wild camp with a difference that's says it all once settled on site felt more relaxed and turned out to be a great camp, although a little noisy with traffic , thanks for comments Pat

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Paul we get a bit fed up with our cool wet weather, would not be so bad if we got a decent winter like you do with plenty of snow to make for some great winter camps, but just stays cool and wet for a lot of the time, thanks for watching Pat

[@archibremner2799]

Love what you doing Pat. Very entertaining and reminds me of some of the places I used to camp when I was younger. Bivvy bag and a few cans of beer.

[@michaelsargeant5923]

One of the best videos on camping I've watched

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Great video Pat. Always enjoy your adventures and sense of humour

Hi Hughesy, a little bit different although still a mini adventure, looking forward to getting back up on the wild moorlands for next camp, all the best Pat

[@BrasherFox]

Well Patrick, I have now watched all your vids except the last two, from the start over the last week or so. My wife has a quote, "Daft as a box of frogs" and I must agree where your concerned, especially after the pub crawl, never laughed so much for a while. You seem to be haphazard but I know you plan these escapades and make them look as its just another jolly old walk. I would never do what seems so natural to you, I swore to my self, never to kip in a tent again when I left the army in 1972 and we did sleep in some very snowy cold places without modern sleeping bags etc. I have kept to that promise.:) I have never been to Sheffield and what impressed me from this vid, it looks like the houses are an after thought that take second precedence from trees. Absolutly brilliant and you don't see this from ground level. Whish we had fish and chip trees in my area, they are very rare. One thing we do have in common, is a love of real ale. Have you never considered doing the Wainright coast to coast walk and wild camping from start to finish? It would take some planning but what a series of youtube vlogs that would make. My very best regards, Brian the Wonderer.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Thanks Thomas, little bit different this locations, but great site and successful foraging trip, thanks Pat

[@Telthecelt]

Great, interesting camp. I was shocked you were going cliff-side of the fence! I am glad there was space for your bivvy bag and that you had a harness for good measure: getting up for a pee and forgetting where you where doesn't bear thinking about. Yes, on balance the possibilities for dark skies probably rules in favour of LEDs. Some lights are oh so smart and only come on when walking by or standing in the bus shelter. Saves some energy at least. Fantastic video as always Pat. Atb,Terry

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Terry, each time I call at Homebase I look up to where I camped, that was a great adventure, maybe again one day. A few years ago the lighting would of showed up alot more with the old sodium lights, a warmer glow to the city, but LEDs, certainly more efficient, thanks Pat

[@mattabouttrails]

Haha brilliant, camping above homebase ! Just goes to show you can have an adventure anywhere. I lived on Valley Rd and my local was the White Lion, 20 years ago before I emigrated to New Zealand. A trip down memory lane. Good work.👍

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Matt yes was a great location to camp, a little bit different. White Lion will not have changed, not as busy only seems to open after $-00pm and that was before lockdown. I understand it has not re-opened yet, like a lot of other pubs in last couple of weeks due to easing of lockdown, enjoy New Zealand, all the best Pat

[@ianmedium]

I love that LED lighting reduces light pollution, that’s wonderful. I am new to your Chanel, grew up in Devon but moved to Canada in 1999 and now live in Austria so it’s lovely to see the U.K. countryside. Thanks Pat.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

ianmedium Hi Ian and nice to hear from you. Certainly moved about a bit, I,be never left Sheffield where I was born. The glow from the old sodium lights made Sheffield look like it was on fire,like the blitz in 1940 I would imagine,it did suprise me how little light is now visible, thanks Pat

Hi Pat, Mark "City Hall" here. That was a great video, spent the last 20 minutes with it on pause looking for my flat, just found it. I've also been thinking about an urban camp but all the spots I've looked at so far would have just made me look homeless. I walked down from the moors last week at night & I noticed the view was much darker, didn't give it much thought but you are right it must be the led lights, cheers

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Also beautiful guest ales in the kings arms pub. I'd wait till the coronavirus has blown over and check it out 🙂

[@martintimothy1915]

Hi Pat great video :) I'm an old camper who started at about age twelve and kept at it as a journeyman rigger, scaffolder and crane operator, going all over Australia to construction and mining jobs for forty yrs, I never stayed in hotels or motels on the way to and from work and always camped out. One time I was sent to a power station in rural Queensland and since they never provided accommodation we were paid x$$ per day to find our own .. I found a spot along a similar fence line above a road embankment and slept there for nine nights, I had a shower in the Power Station before work every day .. it was one of the best times I ever had. The last trip was just on nine yrs ago I needed to go to Nimbin in New South Wales and camped out for two nights .. when I saw yr face and heard yr voice I wondered if we had ever met, I have never been to the UK so it would have had to have been in Australia .. cheers from Brisbane.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Martin nice to hear from Brisbane, likewise I have never been to Australia, perhaps one day. You sound like you have had a interesting working life travelling all over and getting plenty of camping bivvying in at the same time. i can imagine you saved yourself a fortune in hotel fees as well, sounds a great life, thanks for sharing your adventures all the best Pat

Hi Dean, nice to hear from you, you can get some great bargains at Gooutdoors now they price match and knock 10% off, got some new boots recently a bargain. The west of Sheffield heavily populated difficult to find a nice site with a view, many I looked at had a public path running nearby.

Patrick that was a great vid well done I am liking the Urban Camping

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Peter Rutter Hi Peter and thanks for comments a bit different but still enjoyable camp, thanks for watching Pat

[@pilgrim3387]

Really enjoyed the video Pat. Very funny. You wouldn't want to have many more pints on you walking across that ledge. Lol.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi yes your right just a couple could not walk past them without a couple of pints, turned out a interesting camp, all the best Pat

[@davidkeel]

I always enjoy your videos,. Even an urban camp which I'm probaly not going to do looks interesting when you do it Patrick. Youve got a good calm way of talking too. The view of the morning sun made the cityscape look really inviting. Best wishes, David.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi David yes I just wanted to try something different, once hidden from view the camp was more relaxing and also a interesting view try to identify all the building etc, back on the moorlands of Kinder and Bleaklow for the next one, all the best Pat

[@shanelewis9568]

Fantastic that for an urban wild camp pat loved the video mate 🇬🇧⛺️🌲🍺👍

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Shane yes though I would do a different type of camp, still a mini adventure and easy for food and drink, thanks for comments and watching Pat

[@abrasdwe]

Glad you've uploaded again, was at the bottom of kinder scout a couple of weeks ago, completely attacked by flying ants, never seen anything like it, made it to kinder downfall though, lovely views down the valley, all the best Lee 👍

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi lee can,t wait to get back up on Kinder not camped up there for a while, usually avoid it in summer due to midges. Thanks for comments and watching Pat

[@forestdweller3210]

Great location and stunning views. It looks to have been a very enjoyable expedition. I like the idea of the 'foraging' and the pub stops. It's so important to frequent pubs where they offer discount to Camra members and also to call in at pubs you don't normally have the chance to visit!

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Danielle Britton Hi Danielle this camp was a little bit different and great fun, the beer was very nice and discounted as well. The Crown at Heeley is one of those pubs that are difficult to leave, thanks for comments Pat

[@PWRDWNSYSRestartNo]

Another great video Pat - thanks for sharing your adventures with us :-)

[@patrickdickinson6492]

I still look up here everytime I go pass Homebase, great little campsites, thanks Pat

[@andrewseadon8770]

Great video pal As always a great show and a change from your normal enjoyed it from start to finish including pubs and chippy . Your gymnastics on the high fence was awesome . Keep up the great work pal .

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Andrew Seadon Hi Andrew and thanks for that was a great camp, easy to get there great food and beer, what more could you ask for, all the best Pat

[@TheCoopsvids]

Good to see you back out Pat nice to see a different side of the city. ATB mate, Paul

[@davidpinkerton8740]

Hi Matt, was that your house next door to the pub, LoL, Another great video. keep them coming.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi David, if so I would never be out the pub, I could see my house from where I bivvyed though, all the best Pat

[@WESTOFEDEN71]

beautiful 'urban camp too'great videogreat video

[@billyslittlebigadventurech9050]

Brill, and funny video again Patrick. Them urban foraged fish and chips smelled lovely. I have a thermarest mat like yours, and still use it.. See you in October

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Billy yes the smell of fish and chips just makes you want to go out and get some. Some bits of gear will last a life time you feel there expensive when you first buy them but if you get 30 years use then its a bargain. Hope to be out on the wild moorland in Oct, all the best Pat

[@Dominic_in_the_Outdoors]

Ace video buddy, what a great idea for a camp, I like the sound of urban camping but finiding a good spot is difficult. Thanks for uploading your adventures, Dominic

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi yes been meaning to do this urban camp all summer but took ages to find a secluded site with a view of course, thanks for watching Pat

[@paulaoneill7885]

I know what i'm doing this weekend. A nice spot of wild camping :-)

[@KaylynnStrain]

the traffic noise at the beginning ks quite loud but I could still understand you. Sheffiend looks like a very nice city. watching from the other side of the pond

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Kaylynn, yes very noisy to start with rush hour traffic on the way home from work. as you can see Sheffield is a very green city with many trees and a lot of Parks and green areas, thanks for your comments and watching Pat

[@g.tormey]

I’m a Sheffield lad through and through it’s a shit hole it is, but it’s the best shit hole on earth

[@benhoward4294]

Nice spot mate. Have you ever had a look on Parkwood springs? Loads of good spots. If you walk up the railway, takes you up to Wharncliffe side where the crags are also excellent for a wild camp.

[@gearjunkie8681]

Fantastic videos Patrick, your videos are so interesting and informative you certainly know Sheffield and the surounding areas.....keep up the great videos. You should approach a local T.v company and they could show your videos to all of Sheffields people. A.T.B Adrian

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Thanks Adrian, I love Sheffield and it's adjoining hills in Derbyshire, love making the videos, all the best Pat

[@adrianmyas1754]

Pat I have watched a number of your videos and I must say they are very informative and also very funny. Anyone looking up at you would have thought you was a homeless guy camping out. I liked the video of you light painting and taking photographs in the disused railway tunnel. Keep up the great videos they are an inspiration to us all Atb..........Adrian

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Thanks Adrian, this was a amazing camp, not only for views. I always look up at this site when I drive past, all the best Pat

[@ChrisAuton]

Another enjoyable video, although whenever you are around that end of Sheffield my mouth starts to water at the thought of some Moonshine from the Abbeydale Brewery. Just don't see it often enough in places for my liking! Thanks again for taking us on an awesome camp. Finally got my first bivvy camp/test out of the way. You've opened up a whole range of extra options now!

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Chris glad you got your gear and camp sorted. that Moonshine is one of my favourites I like to try different beers but always come back to moonshine. I know they have it at robin Hood at £3-15 a pint, also at Norfolk Arms,Prince of Wales, The Broadfield to name a few great pint. nice to talk to you all the best Pat

[@AndyWardle]

Nice one pat. Can't beat a bit of urban camping. I know of a place but need to recce it first. Looked precarious up there good idea with the clip on rope. Good to see you out again. Look forward to your next adventure atb.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Andy yes though it would make a different adventure, the rope was so I did not fall off but also in case any passing yobs decided it would be a laugh to throw me off. difficult to find anywhere secluded everywhere has a path near it or is a grotty area. Back to the wild moorlands next camp, no traffic noise just the sound of the wind, all the best Pat

[@lawsonrichards6251]

Great vid pat. Can't fault the price of the beer . Like the views and the Fish and chips' made me hungry . Cheers Lawson much appreciated

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Lawson Richards Hi Lawson, great camp this with easy food and drink, thanks for watching Pat

[@SoloSarahBX]

I’m from Woodseats Pat 😂born on Derbyshire Lane. You were looking over my old childhood playground on Tadcaster 🙌🏻 I watched this a few years ago, had to revisit 😊 I played in the quarry before Homebase was built in the 1980’s-90’s building dens so effectively I got there before you (for once) 😁Sarah

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Sarah, yes know the area well, read about the quarry while trying to find the history of the Homebase camp, great childhood back then when you could roam about, playing in the woods etc, probably sowing the seeds for the future.. I think 2024 is going to be a great year for future adventures for both of us.....all the best Pat

[@mickd6942]

my mate told me you had done an urban wildcamp, my reply was "whens the funeral " glad you survived to make more great vidios

[@nodarkthings]

Hello from Hull! I slept on the streets (in a bush) of Sheffield one night about 25 years ago. Crazy days. Interesting video.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Matt Hopper Hi Matt the things you do when your young, no gear at all I ,am it bit more wary now but felt very safe on this camp, all the best Pat

[@littlebull8881]

Hello Pat, wild urban camping is always my favourite, I suppose it's the being so close yet so far, or hiding rite under people eyes, love it, please do more. ATB Davie

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi Davie, this was my first urban camp, did not realise it would be so difficult to find a secluded spot to camp in a city, I also wanted a nice view as well. Thanks for comments and watching Pat

[@markevans1973]

Great fun. Loving your channel

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Yeah this was a lot of fun which I,ve been meaning to repeat somewhere, thanks Pat
