After reading a social media post that an important mythological and historic site had been closed for access, we went to investigate for ourselves. the first thing we needed to do was to figure out how to get to the site!!
With health and safety preventing access, will this be a long term closure? Can a solution be found to allow safe access in the future?
The standard description bit…
We are Sarah and Andrew and we film around Cornwall and publish videos on RU-vid, usually weekly. Sarah collects sea glass to add to paintings of local scenes which are sold on Etsy. The channel is a hobby that we fit around family and normal day jobs.
Unfortunately we cannot answer comments coming in more than a week after the publishing date of the video.
Frequently asked questions:
Do we have meet ups?
We are limited for time because we fit the channel around our family and jobs. We meet up with people who are Patrons and RU-vid members, both on group walks and one-to-one. Why not join us for ad free content and bonus videos.
Unfortunately we do not have scope for further meet ups but if you happen to bump into us while out and about, we will be more than happy to have a quick chat!
What camera do we use?
Since December 2018 we have used: Canon Powershot G7x MkII
How do I find the books you use?
Most are still in print although some we pick up in charity shops and may be available on Amazon secondhand. Please refer to the video for the book titles. Every video shows the book title. Sorry but we can’t put a link in every description.
Best time of year to visit Cornwall?
We love May, June for flora and fauna, July and September for spectacular scenery.
What is your dog’s name?
Sorry but we do not release the name of our dogs, perhaps you can make up your own name for them.
Sarah and Andrew

i visited Roche Rock when I was 19, 35 years ago. I might be mistaken but i think that strong ladder wasn’t there then, there were single metal bars sticking out that were much more precarious than that ladder. I’ve always meant to revisit it, but somehow never have. While I was walking around the rock, I saw the glint of silver pertly buried and when i unearthed it, it was a victorian silver thruppeny bit. Something i’ve always treasured. I always imagined a victorian lady or gentleman tourist dropping it on a tourist trip like mine ❤😊

Another great vlog. In medieval times it was common that religious houses, in this case a chapel, were built over a former hermitages or similar. Wonder if that was the case there.

Well done. Your content is solid….

The spooky Rock has featured in numerous films and books such as The Omen and The Children of the Future

Brilliant video again - and the best Haloween ghost story of the years so far ! Have to say I'm surprised nobody has been there with a set of boltcutters in their backpack...!! 😁 (not that I would ever condone such activity of course.... 🙂)

Another interesting video and associated background history. Loved it!

Next all the Tors on Bodmin and Dartmoor will be fenced off in case someone hurts themselves !!

Loved that story.

Haven't seen the dogs for ages!

We visited a few years ago, a truly beautiful place. You can actually access it (as we did) from the roller at the beginning where Andrew was, it is tricky but doable. I had heard that they had closed the access to it earlier this year which is a shame… but at least it has been done in a way that is not too intrusive to the area. Which is good as it makes a great photo opportunity. Hopefully we shall visit again in November. Keep up the great work

Good old elf 'n' safety. Didn't stop those lads did it. Where there's a will...! Or was it Tregeagle that you saw?

@marieryan2541 3 часа назад

Hi Sarah and Andrew. Really interesting story about Roach rock and the Cornish boogieman. To see the view from the top would be amazing but with a drone which would be much safer now days.

@sallydingle321 2 часа назад

I've definitely heard Tregeagle lately 😜🌬️👌🙏💖

@cornwallparanormalresearch2378 3 часа назад

Been there its a awesome location 😎 but it's a bit dangerous especially if your scared of heights. Cool 😎 watch like and shared out in you tube community. ⌚

Really nice video, Roche rock also used for filming,The Final Conflict (1981): The final installment in the Omen series was filmed at Roche Rock, which stood in for a deserted church on the moor Sword of the Valiant (1984): This movie was also filmed at Roche Rock , nowadays access is not allowed, although i have flown drones over to get a view of it from above, loved this video , keep on walking .

My childhood playground,we used to sit on the top arch .the access is dangerous by today’s standards but people are different now us 1970s feral kids were a different breed,we climbed all over that rock and none of us got hurt.The site was used in the filming of the Omen the final conflict much to our delight,though I think the film crew had quite enough of long haired scruffy kids by the time they had finished 😂

School trip in 1964, lunchtime sandwiches and clambering.

@Treviscoe 3 часа назад

Yes, I remember climbing it too, during the summer of 1975 when I was 17. Never crossed my mind that it wasn't safe.

@nickwebb9290 5 часов назад

I did visit there some years ago however your video was really interesting and shed more light on this historic place. I wonder how people accessed it back in the day when it was a chapel, am sure they didn’t have to climb that metal ladder, or did they?

@Hedgehogsinthemist123 2 часа назад

I've never heard of it. Next time I'm going through Roche, I'll see if I can find it. You'd have to be pretty fit to climb that ladder and back down again and you wouldn't attempt it if you weren't. It's elf and safety gone silly again. You can walk down a pavement in Truro and trip on a loose slab which Cormac hasn't bothered to fix. Accidents will always occur. What happened to commonsense? It might be an SSSI, but there is a lot of growth around it, so will be hidden from view soon.

There is a Roche castle in Pembrokeshire maybe it’s the old spelling for Rock ?

@TravellingTorunn 5 часов назад

Great video and solid research as always. And an impressive rock! I wonder how legends like this start. People were really superstitious in earlier times, more than now. Perhaps they thought this was the logical and believeable answer. I have never been there. But will consider if they open the steps again 😊 A 4 digits combination lock has 10000 possible solutions. With 2 seconds try on each number, the worst case scenario is that it takes about 5,5 hours to find the right one 😂 But it is probably the best not to try 😊 Thank you. Torunn 🥰

Buy a parachute!

@clivemacken552 Час назад

Wonder if it was destroyed lick it is by Henry the 8th when he left the Roman Catholic Church that’s why it’s been left as it is?.. access should still be available but under own risk and maybe a donation box to collect for replacing ladder
