"Things start going downhill when you are fifty" No truer words have been spoken. You don't get it until it starts happening! LOL

for the silver fox that 'sock with a weight inside' was possably used as a weapon

@nigelperry8246 Ай бұрын

I agree, that’s what came to mind but I didn’t want to say it

@medievalladybird394 Ай бұрын

I found one of those socks, just lying randomly in the gras. It was filled with sand though. A nasty little weapon.

I believe the reason you & others find wagon wheel hubs & similar shaped items in the river & canals is due to them being used as crude eel traps when food was scarce and eels were plentiful. Old food scraps are put inside a hessian sack, the sack is tied around the hub, this creates a tunnel into the sack and weight, this is dropped into the water attached to a rope, after a few days the sack is checked for eels and new bait placed in the sack and returned. Probably many lost due to tidal conditions, poor knots & eventually the hessian rots.

I haven't been to Shrewsbury in years and that area still looks lovely. Good finds by the crew, but more-over you did another outstanding job cleaning up the waterways. I love you folks, you're all salt of the earth kind of people.

Guys you keep finding crutches for oars. A rowing crutch is referred to as a crutch and the term rowlock was only used to refer to a space cut out of the gunwale for rowing.

7:37 A motor, but most of the internal gubbins have either rotted away, or mechanically failed. The internal failure caused the shaft to be frozen offset from rust and canal muck. There's my theory

Would love to see you guys at the 13th century Swarkestone bridge rebuilt in 1797 after it was destroyed by a flood. Its a very long and twisted old low masonary bridge made to cross the river Trent and to cover any flooding. This bridge was the only way across for miles around so everyone had to cross it to get to Derby from the Burton-on-trent area.

@allanbale4133 Ай бұрын

Fun facts: People have been living at and around Swarkestone for at least 3,800 years. The only surviving Bronze Age barrow cemetery in the Trent valley is at Swarkestone Lows near the A50. The barrow is a registered national monument In the Domesday Book, Swarkestone was held by the King (William the conqueror) and by Henry de Ferrers. In the Battle of Swarkestone Bridge during the English Civil War (1643) it was defended by the Royalists against the Parliamentarians, but the outnumbered Cavaliers lost the day. In 1745 during the Jacobite rising led by Bonnie Prince Charlie, the advance party of his army reached here to gain control of the crossing of the Trent. Finding no reports of support from the south, they turned back to Derby; the invading army then retreated to Scotland and final defeat at the Battle of Culloden.
