This series is going to become addictive

Richard, I so enjoy your walks every morning -- first thing when I get up -- I sit with my coffee and watch your video. I wish they were longer. You do such a great job of showing your villages and towns and explaining the highlights. I hope you never stop taking your walks. Thank you!
-
I think you have stumbled across something great with this series.
-
Very interesting, nicely presented and full of facts. Thanks!
-
Such beautiful buildings. I'm a little sad when the video comes to an end. Thanks again.
-
I'm enjoying this series of walks along with the history very much. Looking forward to the next one!
-
That was very interesting, all the years I have worked in and around Worthing I had no idea what any of those big buildings used to be. The pink paving bricks you mentioned can still be found down some roads just under the tarmac.
-
Thanks Richard for bringing back some lovely memories of when my mum lived in a flat on Heene Road and I would go for walks beside her on her mobility scooter around the local roads. By the way, I have always enjoyed your choice of music to accompany your videos, and I particularly noticed today the violin music playing when looking at, and discussing the possible future fate of Holy Trinity Church and then the subtle change of tempo after talking about the Worthing Bridge Club.
-
Loving this series, learning the history is fascinating thanks!
-
I am an Indian, I enjoy the videos you post and to hear the English history. Holy Trinity looks magnificient from outside. its a great shame to loose such a beautiful church and its history behind :( My heart aches when churches are beign sold to other religions and the structures are changed. I just say a little prayer to save this church.
-
I am really enjoying these walks. I love to see how buildings change within particular areas. I think this will be a very successful venture.
-
Lovely little walk Richard, I also like looking at old maps, it's nice to see what used to be there and look at what its turned into and looks like now. It's a shame the Victorian houses and glass houses arnt there anymore.
-
I was unable to watch this until the evening ( I normally watch first thing before I start work) and I am looking forward to this. I did a google search of the Cranleigh Court Hotel and saw an image of an old post card and you are right, it did look like those other buildings that still exist.
-
Good concept Richard. Looking forward to this series

AS BELLS FADE (verse 6 of 6) Chalice, cross and candlestick safe under lock and key Long shafts of dusty sunlight there impossible to see Bindweed and nettle prosper in the lush green chestnut shade Old iron bell falling silent as sweet resonations fade. JB09
-
Loving the creepy gothic church with the atmospheric backing track. The heritage trails look very interesting think I will download some of them to try if the lockdown eases sufficiently in times to come.
-
Richard, what about the Heane Rd underground pools. We were bused there every week from Lancing to learn to swim until the primary school built their own pool. That was pre 1967.......can you uncover the fate of the pools?
-
You took me back in time talking about Market Gardens. The housing scheme I am in now was once a famous Market Garden up here in Scotland. Now it is all gone. I think my house used to be the leek and potato field. Ah such memories. Thank you.
-
Great stuff: really engrossing and very well researched.
-
Great video full of interesting facts Richard nice to see your local area
