My walk along the Sussex Border continues. The last I was in Selsey. I am not a little further west and inland at Earnley, a tiny hamlet that dates back to Saxon times.
I am in search of what England means to me. Others will have another concept of this country and that is for them. These videos are about My England.

This whole series of Sussex Border videos are nothing short of excellent and all courtesy of just one man's tireless effort. Thank you.

Beautiful church, and cherry tree a picture in bloom. Great to see Bracklesham beach, a lovely walk Richard, thank you

@andrewpoloni4197 3 года назад

I'm continuously amazed at how wonderfully picturesque Britain is. I think so many people have a mental image of England as London or the areas around London and don't ever get to see all the beautiful small towns and villages and the open countryside.

@andyjarman4958 3 года назад

I know, I live in Western Australia. Australians go to the UK with a list of things to see and tick off. They do not have a culture that involves walking through fields, visiting villages, pubs and churches. Their farmland is all privatised, it's a mental blank they pass through it and have a mind set that only wilderness is attractive. Settlements are often hundreds of kilometres apart. England I find is particularly stunning because it is so sheltered and rich in detail and variety. I always think it improves with a nice spot of Vaughan Williams too; ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ihx5LCF1yJY.html

Medmerry Park was New Beach Holiday Camp when I was a child. We had access through there to get to the beach. Used to cycle there and had the whole place to ourselves as the holiday makers never went further than the first breakwater!!

I was in Sussex at the end of 2016 and early 2017. Unfortunately I didn't have enough time to explore it in detail. Thanks to your video I can catch on those places I had no chance to visit. Thanks a million for that

@CharlieCooper3101 3 года назад

Another amazing border walk episode, great music, lovely little church, lovely footpaths and that little stretch of beach looked amazing and so clean. I really do appreciate theese videos Richard because your showing me areas I never knew existed and I enjoy exploring them with you. I'd like to take notes of all the different places you've explored and hopefully one day do the same. Looking faward to the next episode great work.

I think the writing over the church entrance says 'Enter into his gate with thanks giving' and in that theme, thank you for this beautiful view of a corner of Sussex.

@joyhancock2703 3 года назад

I love this video. The church on the Manhood Peninsular reminds me of the poem by Rudyard Kipling called "Eddi's Service" about a Christmas service held in 687 AD by Eddi Priest of St. Wilfred.

That makes sense to let others who "know" more details add to comments. As it is, Richard, you tell us so much (eg in the church). Thank you. Really loved this video. Living in south London, we have visited much of Sussex East and West, but there is always a lot more to see and so many interesting and picturesque places. Look forward to more.

@ramibu239 3 года назад

What a charming little church at Earnley. Thank you for sharing some of it's history. What a beautiful & well maintained church yard as well. You can tell that this church is well loved & cared for by it's community.

Bracklesham Bay was my first introduction to Sussex. I worked at Pontins as a bluecoat and on my days off I travelled all around to go walking. It is a wonderful area.

@tallpojjy 3 года назад

Absolutely fantastic! You nailed it Richard! Some good views of the church - and our house beside it!! The weather couldn't have been better as you strolled down Drove Lane to the beach, and I remember the Friesian herd walking that lane between the two halves of Manor Farm to different meadows, and dad farming the fields. I work in Guildford now but Earnley will always be my home! (I spent the first 19 weeks of the 1st Lockdown walking those fields daily as it started whilst visiting parents so I was 'stranded' - thankfully in Earnley!!)

@frederic8007 3 года назад

Hi , many thanks for this beautiful ballad 😉. Think you will be going soon to Pevensey , Pevensey bay ( near 1066 road ) ? This is a charming side with Castle , cottages ... Kind regards Frederic

@jeanblemings5352 3 года назад

Great Explorations! I have walked past that church on several occasions in previous times after getting off the bus at East Wittering and going for walks on Medmerry but never gone inside. Strange to see a church without the pews. It was a bit of a trip down memory lane for you too at times. Beautiful scenes brought to us by your photography skills and film making expertise. A thoroughly enjoyable episode of your Sussex Border series. Thank you!

I've not been down that way for a while but I do remember Earnley Bird Gardens where there were butterflies flying about, don't know if they still exist. Lovely old church too. I've seen Medmerry park advertised now I can see where it is. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of where you were walking was covered by the sea years ago. Thank you Richard, where are you off to next?

@katherinekinnaird4408 3 года назад

Absolutely beautiful stunning scenery Britain is so beautiful and of all the shows that I've seen recently and during covid-19 I've seen a bunch on foreign places I sign this one of the best thank you Richard. From Bakersfield California USA. Where it will be 95* and sunny tomorrow April 30th.

@VincentComet-l8e 3 года назад

Some years back we went on a fly-drive holiday around California. Driving east from Bakersfield I was just knocked-out by the change in the landscape - the rocks and scenery I'd seen in so many westerns. Then to Olancha, past dried-out Owens Lake and on to Death Valley. Just Stunning...

@MrGreatplum 3 года назад

Fantastic stuff, Richard. I suspect that the population near Earnley moved to bracklesham bay as that grew up - there seems to be a history of moving settlements on the peninsula - look at Selsey for instance.

@SidBonkers51 3 года назад

People generally dont like change Richard, until it becomes the 'old and established'. I imagine the phrase that new builds all look the same has been uttered for 1000's of years just as Chopin's parents probably thought that his new wave music would never last! ;)

@dougie1968 3 года назад

I live in West Sussex and the countryside is beautiful. I've enjoyed rambling in it for years. At present I'm deeply concerned over all the houses that's been built, are currently being built and bids by housing firms to build thousands more. They seem determined to destroy vast areas of the beautiful countryside due to their addiction to the revenue metric. A destructive obsession with sales revenue that is also destructive for the environment. It's good more and more people are campaigning to put a stop to it. It would be interesting to see the bald explorer visit areas he's walked around before to see how much has changed. There are several areas near where I live that I've enjoyed rambling through many times before that are now housing estates or are soon to be so.

@martinkavanagh9641 3 года назад

The "revenue metric"? What an insular viewpoint - how about you consider the tens of thousands of British folk seeking homes for their children .. that benefit from these new constructions? - perhaps you would prefer that multi-level dungeons be dug under the inflammable city towers to incarcerate them?

@marksadventures3889 3 года назад

You can eat the gorse flowers Richard. I don't get intimidated by the signs, I see them as a mark of fear by those who wall themselves in, people imprisoning themselves out of fear of loss or intrusion. Crime is bad true, but we shouldn't let it rule our lives. While you're in fear though you're easier to manage like a dog herds sheep. Last night I spent a few hours under the stars, it was a bit chilly, but I was wrapped up warm. This morning was cool but bright and wonderful.

@michaelmiller641 3 года назад

@andrewsim9180 Год назад

You're absolutely right Richard, there's far!!!! too much characterless housing......or as I call it, "Lego" housing. Here in Cheshire, at l;east, they're quite often conspicuously red Brick &' red roofed which clashes with adjacent green fields.

ON THE BORDER (verse 32 of ???) The village once so quiet three times busier today As farmland morphs to housing Mother Nature to betray And when the watcher of the seas that early morning checked He found French warship HAZARDOUS off Bracklesham quite wrecked. JB21

@bullettube9863 3 года назад

The HMS Hazardous I read, was originally French, and was buried under the sandy bottom until a storm revealed it's remains. I bet the town was jumping the day she grounded, must be lots of stories floating around her sinking to this day.

@@bullettube9863 Correct Mr BT. Le Hazardeaux was captured by the English in early 18th century and re-named HAZARDOUS PRIZE. She now lies half a mile out to sea, due to coastal erososion in this part of the world and is one of only 65 or so protected wreck sites around the British Isles coastline.
