MANSFIELD

It’s 10 years since I worked in Mansfield. Thanks for the chance to reminisce 😊

Dump

Many thanks for showing us another great video...👍👍

I don't think I've ever walked through Mansfield before? I believe a train to Mansfield then bus to Sherwood Forest. Mansfield looks like a great shopping town with many of the stand byes and also some unique ones too. Thanks for the chance to check out Mansfield! :)

Looks a bit run down in places but so does many other places. Thanks for a look around and keep on walking 👍👍🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️

My hometown. It has really suffered from a LOT of neglect, and the loss of the big names like BHS, Debenhams, Too Shop, etc, etc - there are a multitude of empty shops and boarded up windows. Like a lot of places our local Council overcharges on rents to businesses and market traders, it’s left a once beautiful, vibrant and proud town little more than a rundown dump. It’s a shame - we have some brilliant ppl living here, and proud locals who despair at the decline. But we have a great MP, who is trying to raise our little town back up. Hope he succeeds.

we need a wiper on ya camera, nice short one, not as bigger market than others we ve seen, nice all the same, onwards

Try chesterfield it's not far from Mansfield. Any thursday . They have a decent flee market .

What was the statue of the man in the beginning trying to hold up? Liked the Mansfield 's Christmas 🎄 with large round lights, looks more festive in my opinion. Greed with rents are killing many businesses, not just in Mansfield, UK , but this world. Thank you.

Another great & fantastic video of
MANSFIELD!.💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

I live in Sutton in Ashfield nearby but I have also lived and worked in Mansfield before. The years have not been kind to either. Lack of funding and investment really kill these kinds of towns. The lack of big named retail doesn't help either.

My hometown and thanks gimbal walk TV for touring Mansfield and by the way I want to know what is your name?

Can you check out Worksop town centre please gimbal walk TV?

Ain’t as bad as Slough

Not as busy nowadays like it was back in 80s

We know Mansfield & visit whenever, you got it spot on in the town a good video....... Suggestion to visit is Tetbury town in the Cotswolds,we have been their was great.

A lot of posters are saying how rundown it looks. I can not agree. It has a magnificent market square and an impressive viaduct complementing well-kept streets that are free of graffiti and general urban clutter.
Even the modern shopping centre blends in with the architectural mood of its surroundings. Let us not forget that this was shot on a damp, cloudy day.

Never been there before looked very chilly.

I just hit the subscribe button! I'm currently living in south korea but going to move in my bf's flat in mansfield this August so I was like searching for some infos about mansfield and here i am!

Thanks mate, whats it like to live in Mansfield?

Thanks for your reply
Have you been there long ...could you rate it on a 1 to 10...10 being good.

when was this video taken?

wow... 30 years plus since I left that shit hole be hide and it's not changed 1 bit, same pub names, same betting shops. Even the 1980's MacDonald's. it's like time forgot to update this town. soooo sad. Glad I left though.

I love this town hoping to move here from Wolverhampton some point in the next 6 months or so

It's a dump. Lived my entire life in Mansfield. All major shops gone, mining jobs gone, brewery gone, gas board and EMEB gone, Shoe Factory gone, do I need to go on. Some levelling up! Forgotten by many years of Tory Government but the people of Mansfield blame Labour, go figure!

From near by in ollerton. Only go mansfield for the dentist and drugs. What a shit hole lol. You won't get robbed or attacked there but it just grim

My 2nd favourite town to go. Beats shthole cities like Derby and Nottingham.

Llike a 2nd home throughout the 1990's, Mansfield holds a special place in my memories. Looks a damn sight better than my hometown of Stockport. R.I.P Venue44 belvedere street 💔

Sadly, this was every bit as bleak as I expected. Grew up in Mansfield and don't know anyone that speaks fondly of it.

Does Mansfield have trams?

Also does it have good transport links?

Such a shame that this place is full of benefits scroungers, there’s some lovely buildings.

I live in Sutton-in-Ashfield, don't go to Mansfield much nowadays since debenhams etc closed. Nice town in itself tho xx

Ps have u gimbled wroxham yet?

We’re coming over to check it out in 3 years. I’ve always wanted to. Michael, Mansfield Ohio

I remember when Mansfield was a thriving market town, every shop was busy and the marketplace was absolutely full of wonderful stalls. It used to be such a prosperous town, now it looks like a ghost town. So sad.

Lived there all my life . Complete shit-hole ! Killed the Town when all the pits & Brewery closed .

Love Mansfield.

How is Mansfield different from Chesterfield and
which one is better to buy property in ?

Full of smack heads this place I know because I sell it yhem

What was that monument supposed to be?

I lived in Mansfield into my early twenties. The town centre used to be a thriving and interesting place to visit. Times are harder now and people are continually crying out for reductions in council tax but then wondering why the town has turned into a shit hole. sorry to say, you can't have it both ways.

The uk is definitely not chsnging for the better..in my eyes a deliberate act

In the 70's it was a prosperous dump, sadly it is just the latter now 😞

Mansfield… may we reunite some day 😢

Still better than chesterfield 😂

Was at college there in the late 80s. Truly one of the worst towns in the whole of the UK and I have travelled pretty much everywhere. Its that bad, just a sense of despair and decay. Anyone trying to pretend this place has any redeeming features is deluded!

1.37 that boarded building got busted for a big grow.

good video commentary wd make it better
