Medieval London Bridge - Mini Documentary

Today's long anticipated video will be about Medieval London Bridge, and its more than 600 year history.

Here is a link to a website with much information on this topic, in case you would like to do further research:

You certainly did some research on this subject. I would love to have walked across that bridge and then returned to our own time.

Very good summery of a fascinating subject.

[LoganLavery]

This subject is endlessly fascinating. Patricia Pierce wrote a good book on it and I enjoyed your video too.

Excellent. May I make a suggestion? STand up when doing the voiceover work (narration). All pro voiceover guys do this. Your breathing is much better that way.

Would have been so cool to walk across it in its prime!
Nice job!

Love the interiors and idea making the bridge a capital for all trading in london, so sad that none of it remains

0:05 Southwark is pronounced like 'other' with an S and K added; 'Sutherk'. The W is completely silent. 0:33 Thames is pronounced 'Tems'. 1:30 It was the south, not north gate that displayed heads, and it was not known as Traitor's Gate, which is in the Tower of London.

Very well done, amazing to see so many old pictures of the bridge!

[jetsons]

Nice, short--sweet and straight to the

Super interesting!! ☝️ I have always wondered what happened to this construction and bridge, as it’s so peculiar and special. The idea itself is not optimal, I’ve always felt, but I never thought that this was the reason for it to no exist today. It must have been fascinating to see!

Fascinating architecture! Thanks for sharing!! 🙏

That's a fascinating piece of engineering and history. That's an incredibly long lived and well built structure!

I love that a kid can make a video that gets 2k views in less than 2 years. YouTube works miracles

Southwark is pronounced "Sutherk" and "Thames" is pronounced "Tehms"

[jimmyviaductophilelawley]

brilliant video! nice work! Just two little points...nonesuch is so called because it was a mini replica of the now lost Nonesuch palace built by Henry viii....and it's pronounced suthark...best wishes and keep up the good work!

Traffic congestion in London has been an issue for hundreds of years🤨, to think our great grandparents 10+ generations would have complained as much as us about traffic!

[JayFolipurba]

Awesome! Very good presentation, well structured. I really learned something

[sian]

Very interesting. The London bridge of today is really boring, I wish we still had a covered one.

[darkobelisk]

I just thought it was a bridge. It was like a mini city!

Southwark- Suttherk
Thames- Tems
Hope this helps!
