During the summer of 2020 when all were released from the Covid lockdowns, this house was the star of the show for the urbex community - even the ghost hunters got in on the act - videoing non-existent ghosts for their hallicinating audiences.

First I went with Scrappy NW - Dave, quire early on when the house was still intact although the contents of the dolls house had disappeared sadly. By he second visit with Ninka Kitten-Becci some weejs later, the house had gone down hill hugely.

​

A former farm house with many acres of land and several outer buildings, it was easy to imagine this house being quite magnificent when it was lived in. Not a typical farmhouse, far from it. None of the claustrophobic interior that most have, this was  spacious home with beautiful furniture and vintage possessions still scatterd around the floors. The highlight - obviously for me - was the vintage baby carrier....a glorious reminder of when things were made to last and retain their charm after decades of use.

​

Well worth the two separate visits just to take a step back in time and emerse myself in a long lost world.

​

At the time of writing the house has actually been put on the market and cleared out. I imagine it sold too - such a glorious house it is. I sincerely hope the vintage items have been kept by someone and not thrown into a skip...as for the pram.....
