Urban Wild Camp in the City of Sheffield

Urban wild camp in the city of Sheffield using just a bivvy bag. Few pubs, great food and interesting views.

[@borderlands6606]

The north face of the Homebase, epic stuff. Chips and ale too.

[@normathomas8276]

😀😀

[@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

[@matthewlee8440]

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

[@Astro_War]

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

[@kenboon1478]

Patrick Dickinson any places you know off to wild camp in skegness ?

[@derektrotter4287]

I find this with a lot of you tubers. Then put on the tv and you’ve got the most obnoxious cold egotistical twats being paid a fortune. Don’t know what these tv executives are thinking of

[@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

[@TechGorilla1987]

@4:00 "You can get very merry for a tenner and you can get absolutely legless for 20 quid". I knew a girl like that once. I absolutely love your content, mate! Please don't ever stop.

[@anglobushcraft4614]

Fish and chips looked lovely, shame you couldn't find a mushy pea plant to go along with them.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Hi yes when your hungry food outdoors taste so nice, no cooking and no washing up, thanks for comments and watching 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!

[@patrickdickinson6492]

That,s really nice of you to say, may bump into you one day, thanks Pat

[@pete2347]

Great video thanks Pat! I especially liked the fish and chips in the cemetery, priceless! The beer stops and commentary were excellent too. Good thing that tree was growing through that fence. Cheers!

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Yes those fish and chips tasted so good, beer lovely as well what more could you ask for........ thanks Pat

[@abefrohman1759]

Distraught Sheffield man was talked off of a cliff when authorities agreed to give him 2 sausage rolls and 4 pints of bitters.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

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

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

[@johnhigginbotham8291]

Absolutely brilliant video, Pat!!! Can't believe you would even think about staying there with that drop!!!

[@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

[@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

[@waldinrobey6620]

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. Enjoy your trips on the moors too. Waldo.

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!

[@malcolmwinter6797]

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]

I'm living in a beautiful place called, North cave in East Yorkshire. My house over looks the Yorkshire wolds. There are many great rural areas to see. With streams running through our area. I'm a life long blade, and my favourite brew is a farmer's on draught. When I go to see Sheffield United we call into a cafe and grab a brekky and a pint. Best cure for pre match nerves. Love been in Sheffield visiting family and friends. You should do a camp out near our area. I'll keep you fed and watered in our local. Loving all the videos you post. Great to see.

[@patrickdickinson6492]

Thanks Shaun, sounds like you live in a idyllic spot, great that you still come back to Sheffield, we do have some nice beer though, all the best Pat

[@shaunbishop1416]

@@patrickdickinson6492 yes, it's grand. Well worth an explore. We have the old hull to Barnsley railway here abandoned. It runs parallel with the M62 the old brickyard was filled in and is now thee motorway pond in a village called Newport. Well worth a look and a tour to put on your KZbin channel. Also beautiful guest ales in the kings arms pub. I'd wait till the coronavirus has blown over and check it out 🙂

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

[@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.

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...

[@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!

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
