Boarded up house near Aberystwyth
This house has been left to rot probably since the seventies.
I first explored it in the early eighties when access was easy, and believe it or not it was left full of furniture, including a baby grand piano in one of the front rooms. Surprise surprise that’s gone now, but its amazing how much is left, and how little damage has been done.
The detailing is lovely, the staircase I’ve never seen the like of before, though slightly steep up to the roof . .it definitely wouldn’t pass current build regs.
The garden has been divided, and now has a modern bungalow at one end where there used to be an old workshop which I found my way into to discover it must have been the local undertakers as there were boxes full of coffin fittings left.
I believe the owner has the field behind, and at some point it will be developed, and this may be lost to create access.
