Staveley is a village in the District of South Lakeland in Cumbria, England. Historically part of Westmorland, it is situated 4 miles northwest of Kendal where the River Kent is joined by its tributary the Gowan. It is also known as Staveley-in-Westmorland and Staveley-in-Kendal to distinguish it from Staveley-in-Cartmel (a small village near Newby Bridge which is now in Cumbria but was previously in Lancashire). There are three civil parishes – Nether Staveley, Over Staveley and Hugill (part). Their total population at the 2011 Census was 1,593 but this includes those living in the hamlet of Ings in Hugill parish.
The village is strategically placed at the junction of the rivers Kent and Gowan, at the mouth of the Kentmere Valley. Three hills overlook the village; Reston Scar on the north side on which much of the village is built, Piked Howe to the northeast known to the locals as Craggy Wood and Lily Fell to the south in the direction of the village of Crook on the opposite side of the A591 bypass. Piked Howe and Reston Scar sit either side of the opening into the Kentmere Valley. Both mark the beginning of a larger horseshoe chain of hills known as the Kentmere Round.
The nearest village to the west is Ings, a small settlement which now shares schools and parish minister with Staveley. To the south of the village is Crook, and to the north Kentmere which can only be accessed by road via Staveley village centre, meaning that the two villages have had a close relationship with each other for many centuries. But the village which had the strongest links to Staveley in more recent years is arguably Burneside which is the next stop on the railway line to the east on the way to Kendal. National Cycle Route 6 and the Dales Way footpath run through Burneside and Staveley.
In the 18th century a turnpike road from Kendal to Ambleside was constructed through Staveley. In Dorothy Wordsworth's journal for 1802 there are references to an inn at Staveley (possibly the Eagle and Child). In the Middle Ages, the mills at Staveley produced woollen cloth. During the Industrial Revolution there was cotton production at Staveley, and there is an 18th-century mill building from this time. The cotton industry shifted to Lancashire, and the Staveley mills were converted to work wood. By 1850 bobbin turning was the main industry in the valley.
A conservation area protects much of the centre of Staveley. There are proposals to extend the conservation area across the River Kent to include a garden designed by Thomas Mawson. Staveley has a number of listed buildings, including its oldest building, a tower, all that remains of a medieval church dedicated to St Margaret. The structure is maintained as a clock-tower: on it is a plaque commemorating the Staveley men of F Company, Second V B Border Regiment, who served in the South Africa Campaign of 1900–01 under Major John Thompson.

New Brighton is a seaside resort forming part of the town of Wallasey within the Metropolitan Borough of Wirral in Merseyside, England. At the north-eastern tip of the Wirral peninsula, it has sandy beaches which line the Irish Sea, and the UK's longest promenade at slightly over 2 mi (3.2 km).
During the latter half of the 19th century, New Brighton developed as a very popular seaside resort serving Liverpool and the Lancashire industrial towns, and many of the large houses were converted to inexpensive hotels. A pier was opened in the 1860s, and the promenade from Seacombe to New Brighton was completed by 1901. This served both as a recreational amenity in its own right, and to link up the developments along the estuary, and was later extended westwards towards Leasowe, making it the longest in the UK.
The New Brighton Tower, the tallest in the country, was opened in 1900 but closed in 1919, largely due to lack of maintenance during World War I. Dismantling of the tower was complete by 1921. New Brighton's former open-air swimming pool, of Art Deco architecture, was opened on 13 June 1934 by Viscount Leverhulme.
New Brighton is situated at the north-eastern corner and the most northerly point of the Wirral Peninsula, and at the western side of the mouth of the River Mersey. Liverpool Bay of the Irish Sea is to the north. New Brighton lies on quite a steep hillside; the marine lake and lighthouse are at sea level while, less than 600 m (660 yd) away, St Peter and St Paul's Church sits on a promontory at 48 m (157 ft) above sea level. The 6.4 km (4 mi)-long North Wirral Coastal Park is situated between New Brighton and Meols.
Fort Perch Rock is a coastal defence battery built between 1825 and 1829, with the foundation stone being laid in 1826. New Brighton Lighthouse was originally known as Perch Rock Lighthouse. Construction of the present structure began in 1827 though a light had been maintained on the rock since 1683.
New Brighton has two recognisable churches dominating the skyline and visible from the River Mersey. On Victoria Road, the Anglican St James Church by Sir George Gilbert Scott notable for its thin broach spire and a polygonal apse. It now incorporates the New Brighton Visitors Centre. The St Peter and Paul's Roman Catholic Church is at the top of Atherton Street, completed in 1935, it is a prominent Grade II listed building in the Roman Gesu style, featuring a large dome on a drum. Nicknamed the Dome from Home by returning sailors, the church was closed in 2008, and subsequently reopened in 2011.
The Black Pearl Pirate Ship is a community art installation situated on the beach near Tower Grounds . A replica of a three masted pirate man-of-war, it is almost entirely constructed from salvaged materials and driftwood found on the beach. Unusually for an artwork it is the focus for many other activities, mainly as a children's play structure, but also as a mock up vessel for RNLI exercises, wedding ceremonies and as a popular subject for photography.
The main road through New Brighton is the A554. This road starts in Bidston, passing beneath the M53 motorway at Junction 1, heading towards the coast and then around it to Birkenhead. The B5143 joins New Brighton with Liscard. New Brighton railway station is located on the Wirral Line of the Merseyrail network. The station has a return service to Liverpool every 15 minutes during Monday to Saturday daytime, and a half-hourly service at other times.

Worst Places to Live in the UK – Blackpool
Is Blackpool really bad? That question begs our discussion in view of loads of negative reviews and low ratings of this large town in Lancashire. We found that it is the worst-rated town in the UK and we have discussed that in one of our videos. We have also seen that it's one of the worst seaside towns in England; one of the videos has highlighted that also. Blackpool has also been rated as one of the most depressed. Do all these mean that the town of Blackpool is one of the worst places to live in the United Kingdom? That is exactly what we are going to prove in this video. We shall be as objective as possible on this.
Blackpool’s Great Beginning
Our retrospective look at Blackpool will give us an idea of where the town is coming from. We can then take a more rational perspective when analyzing it as one of the worst places to live in the UK. We have to travel in time way back to days before the start of railways when seaside towns started growing. Indications are that the town had likely been settled around 11,000 years ago. A Roman coin believed to have been used around AD 80 was found in the town.
Let’s veer briefly into etymology and dialectology to exhume facts about the coinage of the town’s name. There was a great discolored water in that area a long time ago called ‘le pull.’ As the waters flowed along, it’d discolor streams draining Marton Mere and Marton Moss by peat lands. While running alongside this area, the stream created a pool.
Naturally, the stream would reflect the color of its water which was seemingly black. It was draining into the sea near the location now known as Manchester Square. Hence, the pool was described as black. The location of that black pool was named “Blackpool.” That name first appeared in the 1602 baptismal register of Bispham parish as ‘Blackpoole.’
The town was so famous in the past that the Squire of Myerscough, Edward Tyldesley, who was the son of the Royalist Sir Thomas Tyldesley, built ‘Foxhall’ towards the end of the 1600s, the first building in the area. How did the entire area fare in those days and thereafter?
Blackpool’s Year of Glory
Anyone that saw images— moving or still— or read about this town in the 1870s would howl and groan because of its current condition. Is this not the same town with four large and prominent hotels that the affluent and wealthy in the society beyond the town were patronizing? If there was anything like that, they could be rated 8-star hotels in those days.
The year 1846 came with an event that aided the early growth of Blackpool. It had to do with the ease of movement brought about by the completion of a branch line from Poulton to Blackpool on the main Preston and Wyre Joint Railway route connecting Preston and to Fleetwood. Blackpool gained tremendously from the losses this brought to Fleetwood resort.
As the town started growing, there was an influx of traveling to the town via rail.

Deserted GHOST Town | ATHERTON Town Centre Walking Tour
Walking around the town centre of Atherton, a town in the Metropolitan Borough of Wigan in Greater Manchester and historically part of Lancashire. My Adventure Planet
The town, including Hindsford, Howe Bridge and Hag Fold, is 5 miles (8.0 km) south of Bolton, 7 miles (11.3 km) east of Wigan, and 10 miles (16.1 km) northwest of Manchester.
From the 17th century, for about 300 years, Atherton was known as Chowbent, which was frequently shortened to Bent, the town's old nickname.
During the Industrial Revolution, the town was a key part of the Manchester Coalfield.
Atherton was associated with coal mining and nail manufacture from the 14th century, encouraged by outcropping coal seams.
At the beginning of the 20th century, the town was described as the centre of a district of collieries, cotton mills and iron-works, which cover the surface of the country with their inartistic buildings and surroundings and are linked together by the equally unlovely dwellings of the people.
Atherton's last deep coal mine closed in 1966 and the last cotton mill closed in 1999.
Today the town is the third-largest retail centre in the Borough of Wigan; almost 20% of those employed in the area work in the wholesale and retail trades, although there is still some significant manufacturing industry in the town.
Evidence has been discovered of a Roman road passing through the area, on the ancient route between Coccium (Wigan) and Mamucium (Manchester).
Following the Anglo-Saxon invasion of England, Atherton, which is built on and around seven brooks, became part of the manor of Warrington until the Norman conquest, when it became a township or vill in the ancient parish of Leigh.
Since 1974 the town has been part of the Metropolitan Borough of Wigan, a local government district of the Metropolitan County of Greater Manchester and since 2010 it has been part of the Bolton West parliamentary constituency.

TYLDESLEY TOWN CENTRE Walking Tour. Deserted GHOST Town | England, UK
Walking around a deserted Tyldesley Town Centre. Filmed in April 2021 during the 3rd lockdown in England. Adventure Planet
Tyldesley is a town in the Metropolitan Borough of Wigan in Greater Manchester, England. My
Within the boundaries of the historic county of Lancashire, Tyldesley is north of Chat Moss near the foothills of the West Pennine Moors, 7.7 miles (12.4 km) southeast of Wigan and 8.9 miles (14.3 km) northwest of Manchester.
At the United Kingdom Census 2001, the Tyldesley built-up area, excluding Shakerley, had a population of 16,142.
The remains of a Roman road passing through the township on its ancient course between Coccium (Wigan) and Mamucium (Manchester) were evident during the 19th century.
Following the Anglo-Saxon invasion of Britain, Tyldesley was part of the manor of Warrington, until the Norman conquest of England, when the settlement constituted a township called Tyldesley-with-Shakerley in the ancient parish of Leigh.
The factory system and textile manufacture during the Industrial Revolution triggered population growth and urbanisation, and by the early 20th century it was said that the mill town was eminently characteristic of an industrial district whose natural features have been almost entirely swept away to give place to factories, iron foundries, and collieries.
After industrial activity declined in the late 20th century, land reclamation and post-war residential developments have altered the landscape and encouraged economic activity along Elliott Street.

Walking in North-West England | PENDLE HILL (Forest of Bowland)
Taking on one of North-West England’s classic walks to the top of Pendle Hill in the Forest of Bowland AONB. I also stopped by the little village of Downham in Lancashire on route.
🇬🇧 See more of my UK videos here →
When searching for walks in the Forest of Bowland I noticed that Pendle Hill was coming up a lot - often cited as one of the best walks in the Ribble Valley area and an enjoyable option for anyone in the North-West of England. I decided to grab my walking shoes and give it a go.
On my way there I drove through a tiny Lancashire village called Downham where it turns out the original film version of Whistle Down the Wind was made in the 1960’s. The film was remade into a musical in the 1990’s by Andrew Lloyd Webber and one of my musical heroes Jim Steinman - so I just had to stop by and take a look around.
After an enjoyable walk through Downham I drove a few miles up the road until I reached what looked like a parking area for the Pendle Hill walk. I left my car with a few others, consulted a couple of walkers returning from the adventure and then set off through a pretty avenue of trees and out into a farm yard.
As I pushed my way through the gate I found the first official sign that gave me two options for getting to the top - a steep but direct route or a less direct gentler climb. I decided to go for the former on the way up and the latter on the way down. The steeper route was a tough one, it was like following a rocky set of steps into the clouds - my legs were taking a beating but the views were out of this world.
Pendle Hill is 557 metres (1,827 feet) and is the highest point in the Ribble Valley. A bronze age burial site has been discovered at the top of the hill and in 1612 the infamous Pendle witch trials took place there which led to the execution of 12 ‘witches’ accused of witchcraft.
Those days are long gone however, Pendle Hill is now a peaceful and serene place for walking and a fantastic location to enjoy views of the surrounding rolling hills of the Ribble Valley and Forest of Bowland.

What Happened to Blackpool?
I had a hard time believing what is happening to Blackpool in recent years. Let me confess; I was not excited about adding Blackpool to the list of the worst places in the UK or the worst seaside towns in England in my videos. I just had to do so because that is consistent with our ideals of standing by nothing but the truth, no matter whose ego is bruised. It’s saddening to see a grim example of how a lovely town can fall from grace to grass in the seaside town of Blackpool. But what happened to Blackpool? Owing to the plenitude of negative rankings of the town these days, I decided to probe deeper into those rankings. My discoveries will definitely you.
Where Is Blackpool?
Blackpool is a large seaside town and resort in Lancashire. Located northwest coast of England, Blackpool is the main settlement within the Blackpool borough. Perhaps best known by sports lovers for being home to Blackpool FC, or for Blackpool Pleasure Beach and Blackpool Tower, the town is also a popular seaside resort in the UK, but now among the worst of them.
It is the town currently with the largest population in the county with 145,007 residents. The urban settlement’s last known population of 147,663 makes it the most populous settlement in Lancashire and the 50th in the UK. This huge town occupying an area of 34.47 kilometers square (or 13.31 square miles) used to be a great resort. Sitting by the Irish Sea, it is between the Ribble and Wyre rivers, 43 kilometers (or 27 miles) north of Liverpool and 64 kilometers (or 40 miles) northwest of Manchester.
The Historical Perspectives of Blackpool
Many people would trace the history of Blackpool as far back as the period of the start of railways when they thought those seaside towns started growing. However, the local history of this town goes back much further than that! It even predates those holidays of the Lancashire Mill towns. Two discoveries gave this hint in 1970.
A skeleton of an elk was found on a site at Carleton, across Blackpool Sixth Form College. Barbed arrowheads found with that carcass are an indication that it didn’t die naturally but rather was hunted by man. And it was estimated to be over 11,000 years old which was so far the earliest evidence of human habitation in the north of Britain. The second set of discoveries was the Roman coins found at Rosall some of which had been in existence around AD 80.
The name of the town Blackpool itself came from the discolored waters of ‘le pull.’ The waters discolored streams draining Marton Mere and Marton Moss through peat lands. As the stream ran alongside Blackpool Old Road it created a pool with a seemingly black color that went into the sea near the place now known as Manchester Square. The name was first seen as ‘Blackpoole‘ in the 1602 Bispham parish baptismal register.
Edward Tyldesley, the Squire of Myerscough, who was the son of the Royalist Sir Thomas Tyldesley, was the first to build a house in the area which was named ‘Foxhall.’ Foxhall was built towards the end of the 1600s.
The Glorious Past
Back in the late 1780s, there were four large hotels catering to the well-to-do in Blackpool society namely, Bailey’s, which is now the Metropole, and Forshaw’s, now the Clifton Arms, Plus Hudson’s, and Hull’s. Based on the standard of those days, they were in the class of at least 8-star hotels of modern times. At Bonny’s, there was another offer of accommodation at King Edward VII, Chapel Street, and yet, at Elston’s, later known as the York Hotel. Visitors to the coast at this time enjoyed horse riding on the beach. They could walk on the 6 yards wide promenade and enjoy archery facilities together with bowling greens.
The most significant event that contributed to the early growth of Blackpool occurred in 1846. That was when a branch line to Blackpool from Poulton was completed. It was on the main Preston and Wyre Joint Railway route from Preston to Fleetwood. While this resulted in the decline of Fleetwood resort, it caused a serious boom for Blackpool.

Exploring Ledsham Railway Station - abandoned closed disused - Ellesmere Port Chester Birkenhead
Ledsham Station served the hamlet on Ledsham and adjoining village of Little Sutton.
It opened as Sutton in 1840, and was renamed to Ledsham in 1863 and was located on the Birkenhead to Chester line.
The station closed in 1959. Despite its remote location it was a fairly substantial station with four platforms. All the platforms were demolished in the 1990s to make way for a new road bridge. Some wall tiles from the footbridge remain attached to the original bridge which crosses the site.
