Bessingham Manor (+ upstairs!)

[JamPhotography]

Hey guys, this is our first post so bare with us (these photos are actually from the 2nd of March 2013, we just haven't had the time/forgot to post it on here)!

Our trip to Bessingham Manor was quite adventurous, as we climbed the dodgy looking wooden ladder up to the second floor, and to our delight the third floor, as the stairs were fully intact! Sadly, looking at more recent threads, the Manor has tumbled into further disrepair and that more furniture has been removed.
So we were so lucky to visit when we did, and probably were the last people to admire the second and third floors!
These photos are a big mixture of both of our work, we hope you enjoy

Nice. Now thats been empty a while, though probably not as long as the dates shown on the items inside, as the roof would have long failed.

Nice pics!

 

[chubs]

real nice!!! looks pretty dogy in there though!

 

[flyboys90]

Great photos.

 

[perjury saint]

Either way, great set of shots and very nicely presented report!

No fella, this is Norfolk . No Bull here, just a very dodgy ladder and bags of splorer pooh.



Done well there guys, made her look reasonable..... Nice.

I went shortly after, i think in April, and the place is being renovated thats why lots of bits have been removed. Upstairs was having new floors put in etc. Shame i didnt get to see it like this, just a few weeks too late!

 

[JamPhotography]

Wow! I wonder who is renovating it?! It was a dodgy climb but defiantly worth seeing all of Robert Gambles school books from 1942! I would just love to win the lottery tonight and do it up and move in!

 

[wagg20]

good shots considering it's your first explore at one of my favourite sites!

Ah yes, now i remember! Cheers Bones!

this is from the new owners - As the new owner of Bessingham Manor, I want to say that it is nice that so many people have taken so much interest in the house but kindly request that you no longer visit.

We are now in the process of restoring the manor, it is no longer to be demolished, which I hope you will all be pleased about if you truly love old buildings. My family and workers are going to be living on site while the works are being carried out with our dogs and we do not wish our privacy to be disturbed in our now 'home' by people wanting to come in and out to have a look. I hope that you can all respect this. It is also going to be highly dangerous as debris and structures are removed and replaced. People will be simply turned away so there is no point in coming.

Due to the recent theiving activity where someone has come and demolished parts of the outhouse in order to take the bricks and tiles, and the theft of numerous articles in the past, wireless, internet linked CCTV has also been installed to catch anyone trying to enter our property. When we see anyone, the police will be informed as this simply has to stop. I know that the majority of you are only interested in viewing the house but we have to protect our property as I am sure you would your own.

For those who want to use the house as a photographic location, once the restoration is complete, then you will be welcome.

Thank you for your understanding.
