Thought I would have a look on geograph for any local , derelict places added lately,. Something I do quite often when searching for locations, but usualy see the same old places. This time I Was in luck! Grange farm and outbuildings had been added in the last few weeks. I am sure I have seen this farm house reported before. But not in the state it is now, no roof, and the upstairs completely inaccessible due to a large fire.
I have tried to find some history, but can't find anything. It looks really out of place now, in a very built up area, full of housing, restaurants, shops and hotels. Also off a extremely busy road in Leicester, not far from the city centre.
If I have the right house from the report I have seen, it did have furniture, sofa's, and some lovely old photographs.
Such a shame to see it now..
The farmhouse and its land is currently for sale with consent to be demolished and housing built in its place.
From looking around I think it was once a dairy farm, producing milk and cheese. There were lots of green, round tokens on the floor saying- milk and cheese.
Hope you enjoy ...
