Quick solo visit early in the morning. The steep slope leading up to the house had me needing to rest half way up, I can't imagine living here and having to walk that slope every time you got home, really is a nightmare climb.

​

In to the house and catching my breath finally, it had obviously been smashed up a little judging by some other recent videos of the house. In the lounge where most of the brass ornaments are - hence the name - it appeared someone had ripped the settee to shreds. Beggars belief. Maybe they were looking for something valuable inside the fabric? The display cabinets had also been smashed in.

​

The house itself has obviously been abandoned for many years. decay is extensive and rot in places. Who lived here and when they left I have no idea but there is obviously no one interested in saving their possessions or property. Many faces stared out from framed photographs, adding a personal feel to the home without any clues as to which - if any - contained photographs of the previous owners. The little dining room before the lounge was the nicest room complete with its obligatory Singer sewing machine and vintage ornaments. A beautiful old-fashioned standing lamp was still in situ in the corner albeit looking a little tired.

​

Whoever lived here collected model cars. Several were still on display in the kitchen area and looked quite old. being a bungalow there was no upstairs which often leads to a more relaxed explore, not having to worry about upper floors and staircases giving way.

​

One odd thing was no toilet in the house. The bathroom didn't have one so maybe there was one in an outdoor shed or something although I didn't notice one. Another anomaly was the very new looking microwave in the kitchen which looked completely out of place with the surroundings. Maybe someone comes here and uses it?

​

A charming little home and after about an hour of photographing I made my way out and down the slope again. On to the next house for that day.
