I visit the grave of Winston Churchill (and end up at Blenheim Palace horse racing trials)

Join me as I visit the grave of Winston Churchill and accidentally end up at a posh horse racing event after going to find out where all the noise was coming from.

My mum admired Winston Churchill so much! I believe he is her favorite historical figure.

What an interesting church. The stained glass window that honors Churchill is awesome. If it wasn’t for your channel I would never knew that existed. Thanks for sharing.

Great Video and a stunning Church. As a Young Man I had a job making deliveries and I delivered some goods to the home in Kensington where Churchill passed away. The Housekeeper back then kindly gave us some refreshments and a brief history of the house. I also spent 3 years living in Edenbridge which is close by to Chartwell where I also paid a visit to as part of a gardening course I completed. Keep up the good work as for myself it’s an education!

I loved this walk today. Can’t believe how old those grave markers are and so detailed. ✌🏻 he was an incredible man before his time. Great inspiration was Winston. What an unusual name Marigold, pretty.

The world would have been a different place without this man? Think about it? He gave everyone hope and strenght to fight the evils in the world. One man or woman CAN change the world for the better God Bless Sir Winston Churchill Great videos thanks so much

I went to England over 49 years ago to see where my ancestors came from.
I was amazed at the simple black stone on Sir Winston Churchills grave. Simple, elegant for such a powerful historically important man and family!
Lovely and peaceful place.

As an equestrian, I'm really chuckling at you stumbling across Blenheim horse trials😅 Loved the video, something nice about a man with such a chaotic and busy life being laid to rest in such a quiet nook.

👩‍💻Your grave walk shows are "stunning." I am so impressed by the beauty of these headstones and must have cost a fortune. I am laying plans to be buried in a pioneer graveyard here where I grew up and live in Utah. I grew up visiting this beautiful resting place where my grandparents and family were laid to rest. In this cemetery, I can have a stone that stands up like the ones you show. Other graveyards around require a flat stone so the lawn can be cut. The cemetery I will be in is natural, up on a hill. When I can look out, I can see the whole of the Great Salt Lake Valley, with native species of fawn and flora all about. There is always a nice cool breeze blowing, and I love the personal character of all the stones and the story they tell. 🙋‍♀️😘😳🤗🥰🇺🇲🇬🇧🇺🇦

Those first stones were so old! Thanks for the tour. It was very interesting!

Not many people from Poland have the same opinion as me, but I'm from Poland, I learnd history and I know that Churchill stoped Hitler. Of course whole Europe and US had a part in it, but without Churchill, nobody knows....Thank you Sir.

The tragic story about little Marigold saddened me, so I did some reasearch on my own, that might interest you or your viewers. The little one was the fourth child and the third daughter of the couple. When their parents were absent for some time, she was with a nurse who tended to her. But when Marigold developed a kind of cold, the lady hesitated to inform her parents, so the illness worsened and led to a resultant blood infection that attacked her immune system. She was too small and too young to resist the illness and died some weeks before her third birthday. Her parents came as quickly as possible, but she died nevertheless. When the family plot on Bladen churchyard was built, the remains of Marigold were exhumed in 2019 and reunited with her family. The former, now empty grave and the cross on Kensal Green remain there as you showed us.
