The House In The Woods
March 2013
Visited with UE-OMJ
The downside to visiting locations such as this is that you will never know the true reason for it being derelict and falling to ruin. Each person that visits the location will read the property in a different way to the last and will make up their own version of events based on the evidence in situ.
From reading previous reports, we were aware of a tragic death of the owners son, Kingsley aged just 6 years who suffered from a haemorrhage as a result of his acute leukaemia. As a father of 3 young children, I found it hard to forget about this and at one point, stepped outside to recompose before continuing with the explore.
The property has been sat derelict for around 8 years and it really does show. Items that would have once been protected from the elements can now be found thrown across the muddy ground outside the property. In and amongst the pile photographed above were photographs, hand written letters, 1950’s television sets & record players and even some limited edition books.
To begin with, we thought another building may have been located on the property but after a check with the land registry office, it would appear that this was not the case. This is just the result of the mindless minority it would seem.
The fridge everybody said not to open...
We are yet to determine what happened to the owner of this property but based on some of the medication found in situ, we can only suggest that she suffered from a heart condition and may have died as a result.
We are currently searching the death records and electoral register to try and complete the story of The House In The Woods.
Thanks for looking and there are many more pics over on my website (Click Here)!
March 2013
The House In The Woods is located about 3 hours from our home and as always we decided to head out on the day the guys at the Met Office issue weather warnings for severe rain and snow. After a few hours of driving through flooded roads covered in massive pot holes and heavy snow fall we had arrived at our target location.
With cameras in hand, it was time to explore “The House In The Woods”…
