GT Manor.... The Revisit
It's been around 18 months since I visited "GT Manor" last and it seems around the same time since anybody else has been in so as I was in the area, I thought it would only be right to pop in and see how the place is doing.
Visited with a non-member on what was a generally peaceful explore.... apart from the odd duck and hide from the owner who was wandering around at the time!
It was nice to be back inside the manor, to see that work is actually well underway to restore this grand building. Sadly for us though, it meant that many areas of the building were locked and lots of items removed.
It's been lovely to see that this 17th century building has evaded the usual metal thieves and vandals that track these places down and that the site has remained in a "good" condition.
Hopefully one day, we'll be able to see the finished project but I can't help but think that's a long way off if the current owner drags his feet anymore. Although it appears that work is well underway at this manor, it must be said that it's structure is in a much worst state than my previous visit and this time, I was lucky to not fall fully through one of the floors.
Thanks for looking.... Time to leave.
