Tubby's Cottage - August 2016

[The_Derp_Lane]

Another old house in the countryside.

One of 14 potential locations I attempted over the last two days. This one being the 9th. It was literally just fail after fail with them ether being done up, lived in or sealed up. This one had more than I could have asked for.

I'm unsure if this particular house was posted on here a few years ago, so heres a bit of history i've gathered from what I found. The previous owner was elderly, and spent their time repairing & maintaining bikes. In the house, it is cluttered to the point where it's a difficulty getting around. There are vintage letters addressed to Mr & Mrs Tubby. The house eventually fell derelict in 2007. One of the newspapers are dated from 1918. The house is nearly pitch black inside. After all the previous fails, this was well worth getting here.

Dammit Dauntless, Could you be a bit more careful on your post titles, for a moment I feared some sod had found me hideaway west of Sharp Tor.
Fantastic pics, I enjoyed it, Thanks

I recon it was where the owner kept the walking stick?

Thanks for the comments so far.
