My father had friends living round and about the Stamford Hill area in the 1970's. My father embarked on a college course and made friends with a gentleman whose Mother was British / Father was Jewish and Scottish, to this day they are still friends. 50 years later, I too am always in and around the Stamford Hill area and love seeing this tight knit Jewish community in their traditional dress and so family orientated. My family is from the Caribbean and I also have a friend whose family is Russian, Jewish, Scottish and Irish..
Oh man that’s so good. I grew up in the area you recorded. It’s just great to reminisce my school, the cemetery, the shops we used to hassle the shop keepers and the same kinds of people I used to see everyday. Just fab!
@@feyzacagliyan2140 It is the Hasidic dress code. This is a branch of Judaism, most Jewish people are much more secular. It is unique to visit because it is like a trip back to the old shtetels of eastern Europe.
Thank you for this; brilliant; in the 1970's I used to work in Stamford Hill so this was almost a new trip down memory lane; back in the 1970's the Orthodox Jewish community I think was more relaxed than it it now; a very interesting community - so thank you again.
Apparently my father was a london, Italian orthodox Jewish person... I never met him. My mother met him in 1986 and by 1987, I was born in Dublin... she grew up in England 🇬🇧 Moved to Ireland with my brothers Father. It's wild to think this is where my father may have walked... The man I never met!
Hi I'm from here and I walk around these streets every day and I can tell u the streets round here never get boring. People from here r just nuts but that's what makes us so unique 😜🙃
For spacial awareness; it's about a 15-20 min walk in either direction: north, east, south or west from 00:38 and that pretty much covers the radius of the neighbourhood. 25-30mins if you're trying to view mostly Jewish homes in the backstreets away from the main road. like down there 5:06
SUPER MERCI !.. TRÈS INTÉRESSANT CETTE AUTRE FAÇON DE VIVRE !.. LE QUARTIER EST UN TANTINET TRISTOUNET !.. C'EST LA CIRCULATION QUI MET DE L'ANIMATION !.. BELLE JOURNÉE MOSTLY WALKING !..
Calling Stamford Hill a "Jewish Neighbourhood" in rather unspecific. It is a HASIDIC area. How many Israeli flags did you see in Stamford Hill? That would be NONE. Go to Golders Green and you'll notice the place is plastered in them. That's just one difference. Just walking down the A10 didn't give a very accurate impression of the life of Stamford Hill. You should have gone to somewhere like Dunsmure Road, West Bank or Cazenove Road.
Right, I was just gonna comment: nice wide pavements just like Golders Green - they chose the right place to settle back whenever it was they first settled. Part of London where I live currently, there's about enough space for 2 people, 1 walking in either direction! And some sidewalks I have to walk onto the road because it's so narrow.
So different to when I lived in Stamford Hill. I do recall all the “frummers” though. I lived in Braydon Rd and we had a lovely Irish family living next door. I used to go to Tyssen Primary School.
@@adonaiyah2196 Compared to large American cities, yes. You don't have heroin addicts shooting up on every corner with pimps, prostitutes and gunfire exchanged every 30 minutes.
@@adonaiyah2196 I'm a strategy consultant at McKinsey and have lived all over the world including London, Chicago, Philly, NYC etc. I've been all over Brixton, Kennington, Croydon, Hackney even Tottenham, walked through estates in the middle of the night with no problem. It's not remotely scary at all compared to North Philly, South or West Chicago, East Detroit, Brownsville, Brooklyn etc. You don't see garbage everywhere and fiends strung out on heroin everywhere. You don't have 900 homicides a year like in Chicago where 50 people get shot over a weekend (London is 4 times bigger than Chicago and only had 100 murders). You don't have the street crime of the Bronx etc. American culture is totally different from UK culture, it is far more dangerous here due to our gun laws, history of gangs, crime, wealth inequality etc. You can walk through those areas in London and nothing will happen to you, but you absolutely cannot take a casual stroll in Englewood, Chicago without putting your life at risk. There is a huge difference.
This was my home for 25yrs.love this everyday.then I got a horrible stalker.nobody could or would help bcos he famous.my life became a nightmare and I ran abroad.didnt fix the prob but now I have no way of coming back home.such sharp emotions watching this.thankyou.wish I cud come home..
I've noticed on rare occasions, and of course it might just be those I've seen, they will stop and watch if there's an altercation, like in Lidl at Tottenham Hale that one time.
This is a specific branch of Judaism, I am Jewish and most Jews are secular or moderately religious', these people are like the Amish of Jews essentially.
Curious what is your ethnicity if you don't mind the question I get the sense most of these 'walk' channel people are either Eastern European or from the Middle East.
Religion is a great divider ..What a pity because we’re all just ordinary people, imagine a world free of so many different religions..This is a big difference to walking round Tower Hamlets.
Jews don't force their religion and they are against missionary, unlike some other religions. And usually theu are very educated and erudite. Contribute to the GDP as well, like the Hindus. Not a typical minority if you ask me. Plus, they live in the UK since the times of Cromwell, they are not the new immigrants who tend to make mess.
@@Jewish_Israeli_Zionist..I’ve never had anything but the greatest respect for the Jewish people, no problems at all with them ..But I’m sure the world would be a better place without any religion whatsoever, but of course that’s impossible .
Yeah, I am Jewish myself and I would not have much luck as I am secular. I do have a very religious' family member so I have an in that way but if you just randomly pop by they will not be mean or tell you to leave but they will not be super open either.
that's what i think too but I think i'll head on over there soon and explore even if they are stand offish and closed. It will be good to people watch and observe and go in one of their secular bars and stuff@@mzple
You can't honestly say it's a beautiful place as some are commenting, just concrete jungle and traffic everywhere and people walking around in stupid clothes
