Spotted this place last summer while out working nearby, but only got around to visiting recently when at a loose end with not a lot to do! Its an odd place which I don't really know any history on, other than it was once a farm, and it appears the last occupants left in the early 2000's going by the dates on calendars, food and medicines etc. A lot of the rooms have fairly modern toys and tat thrown all over the place, but underneath there is much older stuff all over the place. A nice find was a large stash of paperwork going back to at least the 1930's, very much my kind of thing! Its a really odd mix, even more so with the dated decor and fixtures throughout the house, which dont sit right with the more modern stuff thrown all over the floors.

Visited with MD, jacquesj, Mr Sam, and Mr Carrot.

Thanks guys, not usually into the derp houses, but it wasn't a bad little mooch!
 
Very nice ~ Is the carved figure stone or wood 'cause it looks like a medieval ornamental grave cover from the inside of a church?
 
Fantastic shots both of you! What a time capsule! Living all of the old adverts, cheers for sharing guys. :)
