Sad to see cemeteries become so overgrown and decaying. Sadly happens everywhere.

Hopefully Kate or her parents will pay for some upkeep, they are lucky to have gravestones, my family have none.

Well done Dan. Beautiful graveyard, too bad we couldn't see inside the church. It's a shame that it's not being cared for. Really enjoyed this video.

Another wonderfully interesting and informative walk, always love learning about people's family trees and seeing actual photographs of the people who have past on. May they all rest in peace. Brilliant work Dan. 💀🪦

such a shame these graves are not taken care of...sad

Beautiful video as always,,, It does make me so sad to think that when you die you are soon forgotten,, Only very immediate family will remember you for a few years at most,,, Will happen to us all, we too will be forgotten, Make the most of your time and live every day as if its your last, Tell your family and friends often that you love them xx

Present!!!! (With my hand raised....)

Thank you Dan for another great tour. Always learn new history all the time and I appreciate that. I am like you that I am surprised with veterans being buried there and Kate Middleton's family being buried there that there was not a little more clean up than I see. Was a great tour and thank you so much for sharing all those wonderful monuments.

Thank you so much for the videos, I am unable to walk far and used to love to explore cemeteries,, You bring much needed joy and entertainment ,

Yayy I’m so ready ❤

Beautiful story ❤️ such a shame to see the church n Graves be forgotten 😢

Kate Middleton's abandoned family monuments look in very good condition, just rather overgrown with brambles etc. The same applies for most of the other monuments.

This is why I choose cremation over burial no sad grave left 😞😞

I wanted to see inside the church!!! 😢😮

The ornamentation on British gravestones is so beautiful. Love the copper accents and the detail about the individuals buried there.

It is a shame that there is no grounds keeper to clean up all the brush.......it really needs some care!!!!!

Beautiful place and graves. Greetings from Germany and Belgium stay save Dan ❤

This was very interesting, there are many people related to Kate Middleton. You did a wonderful tour for all to see her ancestors. I kind of wonder if Kate has ever went there to see her ancestors. Well, good work✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼✌🏼

Dan, "touchy feely" not you! 🤣 That was such a coup! Finding all that information on the Middleton's. It's a shame the future queen can't get that cleaned up and presentable.

Dan your spoiling us with all these interesting and informative videos.It is a shame that the graves aren't maintained ,but I guess it it's a bit costly.It does add a historic vibe to it with all the ivy trailing over the graves .Thanks again for your tour ❤️🇨🇦

Very well done Dan, excellent! ❤️

What a shame they aren’t looks after. Beautiful cemetery though. All graves should be cared for. It’s our history. Great walk as always. Thank you for sharing. ❤

A tip off from Harry 🤣

WOW You certainly find some interesting cemeteries , this one is massive. I live in the heart of Dorset and I have never seen such huge cemeteries....Great video. Thank you

Really interesting and well presented. Thank you for the walk!

Thanks for showing us this Andrew. Continue to be a strong guy thank u🙏🙏🙏🙏

It's definitely one of the most informative graveyard tour videos I have seen. Hopefully, the British government will do something about the resting place of the next queen's ancestors. Well done. Informative and respectful.

So sad to see how unkept this cemetery is.

Hi Dan! Your vids are the best! Thanks for showing us all this beautiful history. I can’t wait to see all the cemeteries in the UK. I’m in the states and am obsessed with British culture and its cemetery history. I agree with everyone, this one needs some TLC. I wish I lived nearby to do something about it. It’s still beautiful though!

In one word beautiful! Some monuments are so beautiful. Thanks again for this video Martha

The Martineau family (cf) originally French Huguenots, were noted social reformers in the 1800s. Harriet Martineau was a famous early feminist. James Martineau was an Unitarian minister & influential religious philosopher.

Maybe the Middleton family dont know about this ,maybe someone should tell them ,just a thought

Thanks for sharing this

Yes shame there is no one to look after the graves.

You should write a letter to KP office, remind them of Kate's ancestor graves that needs tending. Write the location in case they forgot. These people are so lucky to know their history. I only know of my great great grandparents grave. Information of generations before that has been lost

Well ! That was a dead good walk Fascinating, thank you

Thanks for all your great videos! I usually would get on find a grave to look at cool old cemeteries, these videos are so much better! I love the story and histories these old stones tell!

Well done yet again.

Catherine's family is there ⚰. Nice to know. I remember you, the Middleton and Goldsmith family members are very united,lovely and loyal. Long life for the Prince and Princess of Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 💕.

Hope you notify someone when you go exploring..if you fall into a hole at least they know where to start looking..some of these fantastic cemeteries are not exactly busy thoroughfares..love the vids..from WA Australia

Very beautiful place, taken over and take care of by mother nature, I think it's beautiful as it is

Very cool find. I would love to wander UK cemeteries. We do it here in the States.

Census records are always interesting for Family Historians. I have been a FH for over 20 years and have found some interesting facts on census records.

Wow, they're packed in like sardines in this graveyard. Thank you for the tour.

I think this is so cool ty for showing it

I would take gloves and clear the brush off of the headstones. I don't think that would be disrespectful.

Blooming well done , loved it...

Great tour and very interesting ❤

Love seeing my birthdate on a gravestone. I know its morbid but somehow I still get excited.

Absolutely great👍👍👍

Interesting stuff. In the same breath, sad to see it so unkempt.

What an amazing graveyard. The epitome spooky.

I’m here and ready 😊

That was very interesting 🧐 thoroughly enjoyed it.

love from wisconsin ❤

Wow! That was very interesting. Such a lovely place for a final rest but that overgrowth had me wanting to fly over from the states with a mulching leaf blower and bag! It made my OCD hop into overdrive. I wonder how long it would take for a bunch of volunteers to clean it. Not take the character away but make it look like someone cares about the history of it. Thank you for another informative “walk”

A coworker of mine participated in her family hobby of tidying abandoned graveyards here in America. It is sad to see that beautiful old church wasting away. I wonder if there are any organizations in the UK that tidy up these long forgotten ancestral markers? It certainly would be a good project for students of landscaping and horticulture. Imagine before and after photos of these time capsules being included with their resumes/curriculum vitae when looking for full time employment. Thank you for this haunting look at long forgotten lives. Me? I think I’m going to donate my body to science. Maybe my old bones could help medical students learn how to conquer diseases that plague humanity now.

Einfach nur traurig einen Friedhof in einem solchen Zustand zu sehen.. 😮😢

i grew up next to a graveyard and i loved walking through it. it’s a nice place to walk and think. calming.

You think with all the money they have , that they would take care of those Graves

Thank you so much, I learned a lot from your video. I like the way these older graves often mention the profession & place where the person lived. I actually Google mapped the grave that mentioned “Park lodge Roundhay” & it still exists, so nice to see where the person buried here lived.

I’m surprised no one has gone in to clean this cemetery up as far as the grounds.

I loved the first black cross grave as you came in with the brambles encasing it love your videos 💜🙏

another very interesting video mate, great little tour. time to finally catch up on you vids. for some reason push notifications had been turned off, im guessing youtube fked that up

Dan, you're absolutely right, it's me about your words, when you came near the goldleaf cross.💪

Beautiful cemetary and chaple

Perhaps a copy of this should be sent to the Middletons. Not everyone knows where their ancestors are buried

I have no idea where my GreatGrand-Parents X's 4 cemetery is.

Its a real shame that this resting place fir these souls looks like this

Came across your videos a few weeks ago love them all

Only just started watching your videos … oddly relaxing. 😊

The villages could get their unemployed to keep these majestic graveyards looking as if someone cares.

Hey Dan! Great video! After I watched your video I googled The friends of Roundhay St John‘s. The last Mass was in 2007. Amazing to think with all The wealth The Middleton‘s have and Royal influence that this site looks absolutely awful. What would a full time gardener including a van, fuel and tools cost per annum, £100-150K? To a wealthy family that is absolutely nothing. As a Person with a gardening qualification, this site needs immediate attention with a small team of 2 full time gardener’s and that’s just a start. Somebody in charge here should be approaching The Lottery fund/CofE or local government to save this beautiful church and grounds. I’m guessing to save the church is expensive, but to let it rot is crazy.

Waiting❤

It's so sad to see this cemetery in such bad condition. 😢

hi, great video of yours...I love the old cemeteries which date from the 18th and 19th...it seems morbid on my part, but it's a place that I really like for the past...

Sad to see graves forgotten, it’s happened everywhere. I’ve found some of my ancestors (forgotten graves) where they are and they have no grave stone nothing at all, I’m still searching for my granddads dads grave is. I’ve found out what church yard he’s buried in but no luck in finding out plot, even the church didn’t know.

WOW the Princess of Wales has a lot of family in there. I wonder if they know. I wouldn't have a clue where 99% of my Parent's relatives are buried, especially my Grandfather on my Father's side, he was born in Scotland and immagrated to Australia. And I've never been to a graveside burial for my Mother's side, they get cremated. Which is weird because that side is Catholic.

Wow Thank you for that wonderful tour so much history in just one graveyard and lots of beautiful headstones too. I live in Norwich and we have Rosary Road cemetary which is victorian overgrown and very creepy. Mr J colman the founder of Colmans mustard is buried here with his family. A great place to explore if you ever take a visit to Norwich. Great video and look forward to the next. 😁👍

I'm related to George Washington and Princess Diana is my 10th cousin.

Remember families move away, or families die out, that properly why graves not kept up. If cemetery closed down people properly will not visit.

It doesn't look like a human bone, from the size I would say it could be from a cow or a horse. Perhaps fox or weasels have brought it there.

Fabulous cemetery.

Final comment: They all seem to be related, 12th descendants or more. What happened to First Cousins? [Rhetorical.] R 🤔

William Penrose green was a big industry boss and Lord Mayor in Leeds

U did n awsome job presenting this cemetery to us in the USA. So crowded. I'd like to see how someone is buried between n above n below other graves. I think the overgrowth should b trimmed up a bit. Left on the ground but not climbing so names can't b read. As for the bone, quite interesting. I'd say its a thigh bone but it looks cut off n not decayed off. With the holes in the ground n the moisture, I'd say a grave caved in n animal dug up the bone. Why it appears to b cut, leaves me to wonder if it was from a leg removed/amputated before burial. Thank u for sharing ur time n knowledge with us.

A very busy road nearby. Nice vid.

Dan, please, it's OKAY to set the camera down to get over some of those rocks and vines. That place is very dangerous. You could have tripped and cracked your skull on a grave marker. I have absolutely no idea where it's safe to step. Ignore the people whining "Don't put the camera down." They should try running through that graveyard if they're angry about you setting the camera down to avoid tripping!

Wow, another awesome video, Dan. But it makes me sad to see abandoned churchers and graves, all the people who are sleeping there forgotten. And my, Mrs.Windsor aka Miss Middleton does everything to stand in public for her charity acitivities for poor people, but she does not spend one penny of her huge fortune for her late ancestors, that's where you can see her true character, I cannot respect a behaviour like this. But well, it gives us the pleasure of watching another beautiful video from our favourite grave visitor. And nevertheless, this churchyard looks amazing, so peaceful, I would not mind to be laid to rest there. Thank you for your marvellous work, Dan.

You definitely live up to the channel Except that was dead brilliant Always interesting Love to see the photos And the extra Bit about the person

Do you think she knows about these ancestors that far back? I didn't know about mine until genealogy and never had a clue where they were buried until find a grave. Princess Diana has relatives buried in Ireland in a graveyard/cemetery that needs mucho work. I can't be hard on the Princess Kate. Thank you loved the video.

That's pretty cool. I would love to know if I'm in any way related to anyone famous but I don't know how to trace that far back in my family history.

Amazing to think all those people buried there would have gone through those church doors and out again for the final time before they lay where they are today.

Your sub count has grown a lot! been a but since I caught up, fancy that Kate's family being buried in Leeds!. I enjoyed that thanks and I hope you channel continues to grow 👍

Great Video Dan!! Well Done… don’t listen to the sensitive ones

I didn't know who she is, i had to look her up.

4 months later returning to watch the video still makes me happy i tipped you off about the place knowing you'd like it your braver then me to have invaded the south yard coz even i wont dare maybe its coz i find the fence off putting aswell as the cameras on the building one i think on a previous visit ages ago had the wire yanked when i gorped up the metal sheet over the window is mainly coz that window got shoved in at some point shame its sealed over id love to use that as access to get in to see whats left of the inside and the tower as id not mind seeing if the bell ropes are there or the state of the bells em selfs and as dovers guide says the timber frame and apparently modern fittings by Taylors bell foundry witch ive considered to approach for info about the bells but never bothered if you type in Roundhay bells should bring a video up of them

So sad to see a Cemetery go through neglect. Not as bad looking as a few others I've seen in videos but still. . .It's exactly why I want to be naturally buried. My body can help the planet after I'm dead.
