Left high and dry by the River Tees, we take a look at the impressive remains of the Roman Bridge at Piercebridge. It's actually the second bridge built by the Romans, in order to carry Roman Dere Street over the river, and there are interesting signs of the efforts made to combat the movements of the Tees back in the days of Roman Britain.
As well as the Roman bridge, there are also remains to be seen of the Roman fort and traces of the Vicus too.
We're using a 1970s guide book too - just to add to the fun.

Marvellous! What a roller coaster here, from those salad days near the start where you were filming with gleeful abandon sans hindrance from English Heritage, to the heavy hand of the health and safety intervening to turn off the fun tap, to that glorious wig reveal, then those savage and gory scenes of the marauding barbarians charging through the spike filled ditch. Really liked the use of Lidar and aerial photography too. Also such a pleasure to hear the Roman Gazette theme tune once again - I think I've mentioned before but the sound of my coffee machine turning on reminds me of it! Great work Mr WC21!

Love “those salad days”, Tweedy - thank you! I’m sure I’ve been followed since filming this - the English Heritage regime are proving formidable. Just get the feeling this isn’t going to end well! A great site and the way the LiDAR shows how the village sits within the fort footprint is just like a dream come true for continuity obsessed amateur RU-vid antiquarians! My son’s coffee machine sounds like the Roman Gazette theme too!

@@WC21UKProductionsLtd English Heritage can get stuffed (politically polite reply) ...anything that is publicly accessible and has ‘right to roam’ or presumed access unless stated otherwise is fair game. You could see the Roman toilets on private land from public access in your last vid, that's just trespass, a civil matter no land owner will pursue ...Maybe we need to crowd fund buying you a modern drone ..Or just invite Hedley who owns a rather nice one. Roman Gazette is oddly my favourite tune too.

@tinplategeektoo 10 дней назад

You cannot blame the locals for moving into the fort once the Romans ran away. The North East was a wild area so extremely sensible to protect yourself if a free "des-res" becomes available. As for caveman, I was thinking more Cousin It from the Addams Family.

@WC21UKProductionsLtd 10 дней назад

Cheers. Yes the latter village in the fort was great and as you say, makes total sense. But very often, the Roman structures were abandoned quite quickly after the Romans lost control, so it’s always special when you encounter that continuity. I remember that Addams Family character now and you’re absolutely right!

Hi Darren. Seeing you in your 1970’s incarnation brought back fond memories of school trips to Roman sites in the 1960’s and 1970’s. My school teacher had an uncanny likeness. What an interesting Roman site, bridge, fort and village. One to visit when next “up norf” 👏👏👍😀

Nice to see English Heritage keeping an eye on you 😂. I don't believe for one minute that you were a long-haired rebel in 1975. I just don't see it somehow.

A splendid Sunday's viewing. Our favourite amateur antiquarian sporting his famous tweed shorts in my beloved north east of England whilst talking all things Roman. The river Tees tends to be a bit of a wanderer. I thinks it's because it's a relatively short river who's source, Cross Fell is high in the ever wet North Pennines and as such is prone to flooding and sideways erosion. BTW...in the wig you reminded me more of Phil Harding than CC.

@WC21UKProductionsLtd 10 дней назад

I think at one time the site was ministered to by the Ministry of Public Building and Works which became Ministry of Works which passed such sites to English Heritage. Many of these sites are maintained but the public are not excluded from them nor charged for admission. These sites are often only outcrops surrounded by railings and I remember them as a child in the fifties when the National Trust was only a means of the wealthy avoiding tax by giving their houses to the nation. I think it is important that English Heritage continue doing what the Ministry commenced which is important in relating the concept and details of local and national history. A membership fee is a relatively cheap way of continuing the preservation of these ruins which would otherwise be totally neglected or remain unavailable for public visiting.

@WC21UKProductionsLtd 9 дней назад

Hi, I have a real affection for the old Ministry of Works railings and signs that still exist! I wasn’t aware of this HMBC iteration. I am a member of both English Heritage and National Trust and am happy to contribute - even though both organisations don’t like RU-vidrs filming on their sites!

@davidberlanny3308 10 дней назад

Hi Darren, what an interesting place this was and very well presented too. They must have had to fell quite a large forest to build the bridge. We'll never know, but I do wonder how long it took them to plan and execute it's construction. It would have required specialised artisans to do this as well. I don't think your hair would have had enough time to grow that long back when Wilson was PM!! It would have been appropriate to sing a line or two wishing it was Christmas every day, that really would have been wizard!! Mind you I could see a Noddy Holder likeness too so maybe you did go wading and simply hung your stockings on the wall. Can't think of anymore 70s jokes .... although I thought you had gone a bit Peter Sellars on us with the "burm" in the ditch. Hope you didn't get arrested by the EH police, just as well there were no cameras recording your activities ............ All the best!!

@WC21UKProductionsLtd 10 дней назад

Excellent 1970s riffing there David! Yes, I found this site absolutely fascinating. Their construction ability is just a bit mind boggling really. The tree felling, stone quarrying, stone piers in the river… incredible. Yes, Wilson didn’t last long second time round, did he? Conspiracy theories about that, I seem to recall!

@davidberlanny3308 10 дней назад

@@WC21UKProductionsLtdYes, I was going to say it was a strange time in politics back then, but looking at the time since, nothing unusual!! Back then my Dad was canvasing for the Liberal Party (well before it turned half democratic) and I used to get roped in delivering leaflets. Not sure I got paid for that ..... child labour🤔🤔😂😂😂. Our local MP did thank me though, which was nice (said in a Fast Show way!!). This was the last election before scandal hit Jeremy Thorpe, would anyone bat an eyelid these days? OK hiring an assassin might be taking it to the line. I see you've twigged the Peter Sellars "burm" reference. Here's a little known fact. He was born in Southsea, not far from where I used to live. There is a blue plaque which commemorates this, nothing unusual. The ground floor of the house is now (or at least was) a Chinese Restaurant which always cracked me up thinking of Cato. Recommend reading the Wikipedia entry for Herbert Tsangtse Kwouk, he also started in Last of the Summer Wine!! You're right about their ingenuity. Yesterday the channel I mentioned, Isaac Moreno Gallo, published an investigation into subterranean water channels under the hills near Seville, incredible engineering and knowledge. It's also worth a quick look to see how he presents the voice over (even if you can't follow what he says). One thing he did mention was that the Romans had mastered conveying water in pressurised tubes and often preferred to opt for this method to overcome natural obstacles. No tweed so far I'm afraid.
