"we're now in Henley Henley is a beautiful town on River Thames and it dates back to 1179 when King Henry the second bought some land to build some houses so that's
that's a pretty old pretty pretty old town there are many antique shops in Henley and this is one of them Marlow and Henley, Henley and Marlow they're like brothers or sisters I don't know I'm not really sure, its a bit like Oxford and Cambridge you could never really quite decide which one is more magnificent which one is more beautiful but both Henley and
Marlow have these wonderful little flags flying across the street they're absolutely tremendous always three colors: white, blue and red George Orwell who is a famous writer spent his forming years in Henley; his actual name is Eric Arthur Blair something that I did not know before but I've learned fairly recently markets have been in this town for the
past millennia, ages, forever in fact to be precise - 12th century wandering around streets family wander them to this beautiful beautiful nook around the corner literally behind the
church and what's quite remarkable is that to my left you can see a row of cottages which pretty much face the cemetery but it does look so so beautiful absolutely remarkable when you go through this beautiful narrow street you will walk into the New Street is a fantastically beautiful Street which has the Kenton Theatre, brewery beautiful cottages and many ornate details on it in England cottages have names as well as numbers, sometimes just the name sometimes just a number and sometimes both here is the s probably one of my favorite architectural elements - the "S" originally it's used to pull the cottage together when it starts to fall apart there's a massive rod that goes through the actual cottage and then there is also another "S" like that there is a bolt right here but it's not always the case and it's not always real because these elements are frequently used as decorative elements as well so you can never really quite tell if it's a real rod going through oh it's just an architectural element that's designed to make a cottage look more beautiful here's
another one over here and I love the mixed materials that these cottages are using there's a bit of timber this brickwork, the stone and we could see by the shape of the bricks that the age is different as well this is Kenton Theatre it was built in 1805 and it's the fourth oldest theatre in the United Kingdom, Henley is also a renowned world centre for rowing Once a year there's a royal regatta that's taking place it became royal after Prince Albert became its patron Month of July really busy for Henley it's got Royal Henley Regatta as well as music festival taking place and autumn greets us with a Henley literary festival Behind me is the beautiful hamlet bridge built all the way back in 1786 however in 2011 it incured an accident with a boat called Crazy Love which caused a massive damage but it (the bridge) was restored but this town doesn't just offer its own beauty you can also take a wonderful
walk by the river and really enjoy the scenery thank you very much for watching this video about Henley and do like share and subscribe to my channel because your support means a world to me thank you very much and until Thursday 7 o'clock standard British time bye-bye"

Thank you for doing these videos, very well produced. I grew up in Bray and know all these surrounding towns and villages very well. Very nostalgic as I left England in 1978 never to live there again but to go back and visit. West of London is without doubt the best direction to go, especially because of the Thames settlements.

As I explored Google Maps I found your town and then to you here on YT. What a great video that you've done; it really brings your town to life. We will drop in for a few hours for sure now. Many thanks.

i lived near Henley on Thames as a child in the 60's (sonning common) and this is one of the most beautiful places in the uk. i attended chiltern edge secondary school and there used to be a school annexe near here too that we attended once a week. memories of sculling on the river and blissfully peaceful weekends there with friends and family. blessed be to all back home 🙏🙃💞

@@mikebogatyrev3058 actually when I was at Chiltern edge secondary modern school which was 5 to 10 miles away the French teacher Miss Black taught me and Anthony Griffiths the basics of guitar and then FORCED us into Henley on Thames Folk Festival one weekend and the 1st hour ANYONE could go up on stage and play and sing just for the BUZZ as it was a paying festival so we got up and played a Gazillion verses of Michael Rowed the Boat Ashore (Nervous As) but the applause at the end was an experience to behold and I'll always remember that. Henley on Thames was stunningly beautiful and my father bought a brand new house in Shiplake Bottom in Peppard and I did the paper round starting with The Unicorn Pub in Colmore Lane (Kingswood now I think) with 5 miles and 20 houses but my other friend Stephen Compton was into Sculling and he took me a few times and we had much fun and there were oodles of Antique Shops in Henley and we always went window shopping on a weekend with parents but there were a few Discotheques in the 70s, mainly in Reading though but it was and is beyond beautiful. I look at Henley now and because I've not seen the UK since 2001 I so love the tours and videos of these places. One REALLY doesn't appreciate it all UNTIL you leave it all behind. My parents divorced when I was 6 and my Mum lived in Sidcup Kent and the depths of Kent is very similar. I love the parts of the UK so much but I'll never see England again and that's a Biggie but that's where channels like yours come in. I was born in London but have lived in Sonning common near Henley and Essex and Yorkshire and Reading and a few other places. There's beauty all around the globe, in the eyes of the beholder. Blessings to EVERYONE in Henley on Thames and Ex Pupils of #ChilternEdgeSecondaryModernSchool ALL KUDOS to your channel with much Gratitude 🙏🙃

Mike Bogatyrev lovely during the day. Walks by the river running as well. Have picnics. During regatta watch all the boats go by was lovely. But evenings especially weekends am not gonna go into too much detail as don’t wanna run Henley down is just a complete different vibe you have to be alert at all times especially be careful what you say as it’s such a small town and everyone knows each other. Crime rate has risen which is the saddest thing for this wander full town. That’s reason why I moved I had enough of gossip cliques as well as crime around me.
