Gibside Hall, Gardens & Derwent Caravan Park. (4K)
Gibside is an estate in the Derwent Valley in North East England. It is between Rowlands Gill, Tyne and Wear and Burnopfield, County Durham, and a few miles from Newcastle-upon-Tyne. Gibside was previously owned by the Bowes-Lyon family. It is now a National Trust property. Gibside Hall, the main house on the estate, is now a shell, although the property is most famous for its chapel. The stables, walled garden, Column to Liberty and Banqueting House are also intact.
History
The Blakiston family acquired the estate by marriage in about 1540. Sir William Blakiston (1562–1641) replaced the old house with a spacious mansion between 1603 and 1620. Both the Royal (King James I of England) coat of arms and the Blakiston coat of arms are seen over the entrance of the old Hall. The Gibside property came into the possession of the Bowes family in 1713; a result of the marriage in 1693 of Sir William's great-granddaughter, Elizabeth Blakiston, to Sir William Bowes (1657–1707) of Streatlam Castle (now demolished).
Until 1722, the basis of the Bowes' influence was their own estate and house of Streatlam Castle, County Durham. However, after that date the acquisition through marriage of the Blakiston estate of Gibside gave the Bowes family an even greater influence in the north of the county and a share in the immense wealth that was to be acquired from the coal trade. The Blakiston estate included some of the area's richest coal seams.
In 1767 the granddaughter of Sir William Bowes – the Bowes heiress Mary Eleanor Bowes – married John Lyon, 9th Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne, who changed his surname to Bowes due to a provision in her father's will that any suitor had to take the family name. This was a device to continue the Bowes lineage in the absence of a male heir. The estate remained in the Bowes and Bowes-Lyon family until the 20th century.
After the split inheritance dispute following the death of John Bowes, 10th Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne in 1820, it belonged to his legitimated son John Bowes until his death in 1885 (he is buried in the Gibside chapel), when under the entail it reverted to his cousin the 13th Earl of Strathmore and Kinghorne. It had been the main residence of John Bowes' mother, Mary Milner, by then Dowager Countess of Strathmore, and her second husband, the politician Sir William Hutt (who had been John Bowes' tutor), until the latter's death in 1882, which was the last time it was permanently occupied by the family.
Improvements to Gibside carried out by the Bowes-Lyon family in the 18th and early 19th centuries included landscaping, Gibside Chapel, built between 1760 and 1812, the Banqueting House, a column of Liberty, a substantial stable block, an avenue of oaks and several hundred acres of forest. The top floor of the main house was remodelled as a giant parapet, and the building was also extended to the side.
The chapel reflects the Calvinist leanings of the family, and though nominally Anglican, the interior is dominated by a huge and centrally placed three-decker pulpit. There is a house for the minister/chaplain nearby. Some holders of the position would not have been able to hold a Church of England parish living, on account of their views. The leading Palladian architect James Paine is attributed with most of the work of the 1750s and 1760s.
The Banqueting House, Gibside was built in 1746, and is an early example of Gothic Revival architecture, of the early form often called Gothick. It has now been restored and is available for letting by the Landmark Trust, who now own it.
Gibside's main house is not the focal point of the estate: the long walk runs from the Column of Liberty to the chapel and the mansion is located to one side. Like the Orangery nearby it sits at the top of a steep slope leading to flat meadows and the river. Carriage drives thread through the estate, and the stable block, Banqueting House, and other buildings are all spread out along them.
Derwent Park Caravan Site.
Derwent Park is situated in Rowlands Gill. The park is often incorrectly called Rowlands Gill Park as a result. The park has a caravan site and has many play areas for children. Fishing on the River Derwent, which runs through the park The fish include brown trout, grayling (species) and Atlantic salmon.
Small quiet site 15 mins from Newcastle situated in the Derwent Valley. Tent area is a natural wood with wild flowers and Caravan Park is grassed with hardstanding and electric to all.
Exploring Derwenthaugh Country Park
Due to current restrictions in the U.K. it is important to stay fit and healthy and get outside when possible. Today we visited Derwenthaugh Country Park for our daily walk, it was a very icy walk as it had been snowing quite heavily the day before and all the slush had turned to ice!
The park is apparently around the size of 146 football pitches and contains woodlands, meadows, wetlands and riversides all linked with various walks.
The country park runs from Swalwell to Rowlands Gill through the River Derwent Valley. The best walk in the country park is the Derwent Walk which follows the route of the former Derwent Valley Railway which once upon a time carried iron and passengers from Consett to the River Tyne. Derwenthaugh Country Park is well known from people travelling all over the country to do the Coast to Coast cycle, track number 14 runs through this park.

Bridge over the River Derwent at Allensford
twitter : @ceepackaging
The River Derwent is a river on the border between County Durham and Northumberland and this films shows the bridge at Allensford over the river. It broadens into the Derwent Reservoir, west of Consett. The Derwent is a tributary of the River Tyne, which it joins near the MetroCentre. The river flows for 55 km from its origin, where two streams meet approximately 1.5km west of Blanchland, to Derwenthaugh where it flows into the River Tyne. After Allensford the river flows to Shotley Bridge, Blackhall Mill and Rowlands Gill.
The name Derwent comes from the Brythonic/Early Welsh word for oak derw, harking back to the time when the Derwent Valley was inhabited by a British-speaking population.
My channel on you tube : th is one of the most prolific from Poland. I have produced around 1,600 original films, most in English but also in Polish, French, Italian, Spanish and the occasional hint of German and Hebrew. My big interest in life is travel and history but I have also placed films on other subjects
Please feel free to ask questions in the public area or to comment on things you disagree with. Sometimes there are mistakes because I speak without preparation. If I see the mistakes myself, I make this clear in the text. Please also leave a star rating!
There are a number of films here on the packaging industry. This is because I am the publisher of Central and Eastern European Packaging -- - the international platform for the packaging industry in this region focusing on the latest innovations, trends, design, branding, legislation and environmental issues with in-depth profiles of major industry achievers.
Most people may think packaging pretty boring but it possibly effects your life more than you really imagine!
Central and Eastern European Packaging examines the packaging industry throughout this region, but in particular in the largest regional economies which are Russia, Germany, Poland, Czech Republic, Ukraine and Austria. That is not to say that the other countries are forgotten, they are not, but obviously there is less going on. However the fact that there are so many travel related films here is not from holidays but from business trips attending trade fairs around the region. Every packaging trade fair is a new excuse to make another film!

HADRIAN'S WALK.mp4
In 122 AD, at the height of the Roman Empire, the Emperor Hadrian ordered his armies stationed in Britain to construct a barrier that would span the width of the island. This structure became known as 'Hadrian's Wall'
The wall lasted over 300 years, but upon the fall of the Roman Empire, the structure fell into disrepair and major portions were demolished. In 2003 the British Government opened an 80 mile walking path that followed where the wall once stood.
Upon learning of the new pathway, an overweight, middle-aged man from California made it his goal to 'Walk the Wall'. In the summer of 2004 he recruited three other travelers and soon learned that choosing a travel partner can be almost as traumatic as choosing a spouse.
