In today's video, we are a mile into Cornwall in a town called Launceston. Launceston happens to have a castle and I like filming these places so I thought I'd come and have a look around, see what the history behind this place is. As it turns out it had quite the reputation as a prison.
Welcome to our history channel, run by those with a real passion for history & that's kind of it.

I came from VTH. I stayed because y'all are great. I commented because I love Cornish history and want to ask you to make more videos about it

Well we've got this video & Tintagel Castle. I have some footage from the Jamaica Inn up on Bodmin Moor, but I don't know if there's enough to turn around a video - I'll do my best to research and see if it is viable. As for more than that, will have to wait until I'm next in Cornwall.

@@DecadesVideos Thanks for the response! I really enjoyed the Tintagel Castle video as well!

@@ramsesflores7743 I'll do my best to get that Jamaica Inn idea developed, if not we'll definitely be back in Cornwall.

As an American, do allow me to express the obligatory (but still true) envy of the fact that you can basically throw a dart at a map and hit a castle.

There are too many to ever make content on all of them (however, we'll do our best as the years go by), but they're concentrated in particular areas over others, from where we live we have an hour at least in any direction before we reach a castle which sounds close but for England it's quite a trek when you consider how many towns, people and slow, narrow roads one must travel past and down to reach. Plenty of UK areas have no signs of this history but if you wish to seek it out, it's never too far to visit one in a day trip.

We have a Launceston in Northern Tasmania. Locals insist on pronouncing it "Lawn-ces-ten." Don't know were they get that idea. Maybe it's a remnant of an early 19th century pronunciation.

"lanson" for the locals "lawnston" for outsiders

Can you do a story within Cork County maybe the old area of Kingdom of Munster?

@DecadesVideos 11 месяцев назад

Might be a good idea, want to get over to Ireland sometime and do loads of content on stuff over there as is

As a resident you can call it Launceston but the farmers call it Lanson.

When you go to the top of the castle you can take in the lovely views of the social housing estates of Ridgegrove and Lanstephen where you can generally purchase any drugs you desire 😂
