103: Redbrook and Newland (Wye Valley and Forest of Dean 2018)

WYE VALLEY AND FOREST OF DEAN WALK FEATURING REDBROOK AND NEWLAND

"Redbrook and Newland”
Filmed 29th May 2018
Post-production completed 24th August 2018

This film features the villages of Redbrook and Newland. Neither of these two locations were previously featured in any of my older films, but as they both lie within the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean, I felt they were great places to film as part of the 25th anniversary.

The walk I feature in this film is one I did at least a couple of times many years ago, which follows the route of an abandoned meander of the River Wye between the two villages.

Filmed in the Wye Valley and Forest of Dean in the counties of Monmouthshire and Gloucestershire. Locations include Redbrook village, The Boat Inn at Penallt, Upper Redbrook, Newland, Valley Brook and Lower Redbrook. This is part of the series of films in 2018 celebrating 25 years of “The Solitary Rambler”.

Written, researched, directed, camera and sound, edited and music by Patrick Leach.

"The Solitary Rambler" is my series of amateur films of my journeys in the countryside accompanied by my own musical scores, which I compose and perform on my Yamaha keyboard.

Please note that, as with all the films I make, this is not actually intended to be an extensive guide to the area. This is a mini-movie of my personal journey along the walk, in which I often share some of my own personal stories.

If you are new to my YouTube channel, I strongly recommend reading the description on the home page, which will provide a clearer understanding of what to expect in my films:    / solitaryrambler
