Im sticking this up here because I loved it. Its gone now so dont get excited. This was one that myself and BIAA went nuts trying to find when it popped up, when BIAA did find it off her own back it was only a few miles from my mums house so I quickly arranged a visit down south. It was tiny in there, but full of character and trinkets-really sad that someones life was left behind. If you managed to see this then you were some of the very lucky ones.

One of my all-time favourite explores.

The pictures:

Theres so much that can be said about this location but I think the most important is how wonderful it was to splore.

So very tiny with Its rinky dinky rooms with ceilings you could scrape ur head on al brimming with little treasures

Buddle s of letter that when read told the story of couples life together & their family,

A lovely time capsule and youve captured it so well and as times gone on can now say its so good to see again.

Thanks for sharing (y)

Aw, its amazing to see how much history was left in the house! It must have been amazing to read the letters and get a sense of the life that once filled the place! Brilliant photos, they capture it so well!

Such a shame to see it go, never got the chance to see it myself, but see so many reports on it before. Your report is definately one of the best I've seen (y) (y)
