Kingham is located near Daylesford and Stow on the Wold, forming part of the Cotswolds considered to be extremely trendy. Website: www.thecotswold... Facebook: / cotswoldexplorer Twitter: / cotswoldplaces Instagram: / thecotswolde. .
I live in this area, and although there are obviously some very nice locals, it has been utterly spoiled by the influx of entitled wealthy “do you know who I am?” types. Still, the most beautiful place to live 😊 You just need to ignore the dickheads lol
😊😊I'm with you Robin about wild flowers Our grass verges are a little over grown,but the wildlife love them and Mothers with children stop to look with delight...thats as it should be I think.
They may be rich around there, but they don't necessarily put that money into local amenities. I did an event at the village hall and I kid you not, the organisers had to keep putting £1 coins into a meter to operate the electricity!
we have had the same invasion here on the beautiful and peaceful coast of Maine. Maine was a quiet and conservative place 50 years ago with fishermen and farmers living in harmony with wealthy summer folk who were only here July and August for "The Season". The elites have invaded tearing down beautiful old estates and putting up modern mansions, bringing their city ideals with them as well. Driving up taxes for families that have been here since they settled here from England in the 1600's, my ancestors were some of these people. The attitude of entitlement is palpable. IT's been hard to watch this beautiful state change so much in my lifetime. In addition we also have "the newcomers" from the southern border of the USA ( all 75,000 and another 75,000 to come in a state of just over 1 million people) that the current administration has shipped and paid for all over the USA. The world is changing fast. Love your videos and you too!! Janet Robinson
I'm from the Cotswolds but now live in Barbados, where Trolly Dolly Bamford has ridden rough-shod on both west and east coasts. Seems she's disliked everywhere she goes.
Very Well done Video my friends !!!!! This Little"Gem" Of a Gentrified Town is Very Nice indeed, and Should I ever win the Loto Jackpot Some day I Shall Give it a Visit Or indeed Mabe even Move there ( to Grace them with My Richness 🤑and Upper Classiness 💅 ) ... lol .....Thanks again Robin !!!! Most Sincerely ((: Gee~Lee :)) 🤘💃🤘
Well done. Put me in mind of some of what's happening in some of our American states -- Vermont, Montana -- where internet makes possible the questionable marriage of old farming and new money.
The Cotswolds are plural. There are a couple of ideas for the origin of the name. A wold is a hill, and there are many hills. The Cotswolds would therefore mean "sheep enclosures in the hills" or something too that effect. But it may also may come from an Old English personal name, like "Cod's-wold", from Codesuualt, or the high open land of someone called Cod. And as below, chipping means market, and norton literally means "north town". Kingham derives from the old English Caningeham, or Keingeham, from "the ham (homestead) of Caega's people".
Thanks for another lovely video. I always pass through on the train but have never set foot there.. yet. Also I hope you’re doing well with your health Robin :) All the best.
I am told Chipping Norton is known by many now as ' Sniffing ' Norton ? What a shame our wealthy friends with their nasty wealthy 'habits' have seeped into our beautiful and wonderful ancient countryside and not for the better ?
What a shame that they've cut out all the flowers. When will people get into their heads that nature is not only needed, but (in my own opinion) much better looking? I'm tired of neat lawns and weedkiller.
I believe Europe, Britain, and the United States must have fully open and free borders. In order to end the racist genocide of colonization, and the terror of white supermacy and support MY QUEER HOMECOUNTRY OF ISRAEL!!
